Pasto Private Tour
We'll meet at 2 pm at your hotel to start a private tour of Pasto, known as the 'Surprise City' of Colombia. A brief introduction to the town will precede a walk through the historic centre, highlighting the typical architecture and the many churches, considered architectural jewels.
Our first stop will be the Cathedral of Pasto, inaugurated in the early 1920s, which replaced a church demolished at the end of the 19th century. Inside, we will see relics from the original church of San Francisco, including a wooden cross and a carving of Jesus crucified.
Next, we will visit the church of San Juan Bautista, the first cathedral in the city, followed by the Cristo Rey church and the Sanctuary of La Merced, the patron saint of Pasto.
The tour will also include the Plaza de Nariño and the Carnival Museum, where you will learn about the Carnival of Blacks and Whites, the biggest folkloric festival in Pasto.
We will then visit a varnish workshop, showcasing a unique handicraft technique recognized as Cultural Heritage of Colombia, and conclude with a demonstration of how typical paila ice cream is made.
The tour will end at your hotel in Pasto at 6 pm.
