If you're in Salento and you want to enjoy an authentic Colombian experience, join us to learn how to play a game of Tejo. You'll become a pro at the country's national sport!

Tour Description

We'll meet at the indicated time in the main square in Salento and start this experience. We'll head to a Tejo court, where we'll notice the atmosphere of fun. This game, which is Colombia's national sport, was played by the Muisca people, an ancient civilization, over 500 years ago.

For an hour, we'll learn how to throw the metal discs at the 'mechas', triangles that we have to make explode. Concentration is important as skill and aim are essential in this game!

As tradition dictates, after the game, we'll sit down to rest and enjoy a national beer, accompanied by some delicious empanadas.

After a total of 2 hours, we'll say goodbye at the starting point.
