Description
Day 1: Riohacha - Manaure - Los Flamencos Sanctuary
We will pick you up at your selected meeting point in Riohacha and begin our trip to Manaure. The first stop will be the salt mines of Manaure, where we will learn about the salt production process over 4200 hectares.
Afterward, we will have a lunch of rice with meat or fish, patacones, and salad. In the afternoon, we will visit Los Flamencos Wildlife Sanctuary, an area teeming with wading birds.
A salt massage will follow, benefiting from salt therapy for its dermatological and muscle-relaxing effects. We will end the day watching the sunset over a bonfire on the beach before returning to our hotel in Manaure for dinner and rest.
Day 2: Manaure - Wayuu ranchería - Riohacha
After a breakfast in the hotel, we will head to the beaches of Manaure and enjoy a traditional Colombian lunch at noon. In the afternoon, we will visit a Wayuu ranchería to learn about the traditions of the Wayuu, the largest indigenous people in Colombia. We will return to Riohacha at 2 pm.
