Tejo Game in Salento

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

Tour Description

We'll meet at the indicated time in the main square in Salento to start this exciting experience. Get ready to uncover the secrets of this ancestral game.

We'll head to a Tejo court, where the atmosphere of fun awaits. This game, Colombia's national sport, has roots with the Muisca people, an ancient civilization, dating back over 500 years.

For one hour, we will learn to throw metal discs at the 'mechas', triangles that we aim to make explode. Concentration is key, as skill and aim are essential in this game!

Traditionally, after the game, we will sit down to rest and enjoy a national beer along with some delicious empanadas.

After a total of 2 hours, we will conclude the tour at the starting point.
