This fantastic adventure begins at 8:30 am from Riohacha, and then headed for Manaure through a deserted road. In Manaure, Colombia’s largest salt complex, we have a guided tour about the process of extracting salt and then pass by Uribia, indigenous capital of Colombia, we will have a brief overview of the place and then we cross the majestic desert to reach Cabo de la Vela. Here we have lunch and rest to visit later Arco iris Beach, Pilón de Azúcar and finally the lighthouse where we´ll enjoy a beautiful sunset. We return to the Ranchería to spend the night in hammocks.


On the second day of our adventure we leave about 8:00 am, after breakfast, we take a road surrounded by desert to Punta Gallinas. The car pass by the Parque Eólico “Jepirachi” (Wind Park) to take pictures, we keep going through the deserted way bordering Bahia Honda and Bahía Hondita and finally reach the enigmatic Punta Gallinas approximately at 2:00 pm for lunch. The group can spend the afternoon resting at the lodging and enjoying the beauty of the landscape.


Early after breakfast we will visit the Taroa Dunes. It is in this beautiful scenario of sand, where we will have the opportunity to perform Sandboarding, an activity that consists on descending through the dunes with special boards similar to those used for Snowboarding. Before gliding through the fine yellow sand of the dune, being at the top, we can have a general view of the entire landscape, look at the immense Caribbean Sea and feel our heart speed up because we are about to live an unprecedented experience.
Then we will return to Riohacha.

  1. Rena + Frank

    Wir sind ganz begeistert von der 3-Tagestour La Guajira vom 12.-14.08.24. Unser Fahrer ist sehr sicher und gut gefahren. Der Zeitplan war gut, man hat überall an den Punkten (Strand, Leuchtturm usw.) genug Zeit gehabt. Die Auswahl vom Essen ging über Hühnchen, Fisch, Fleisch und vegetarisch. Das Schlafen in den Hängematten war überraschend gut. Vielen Dank für die schönen Eindrücke. Können wir nur empfehlen.
