Day by day schedule
Day 01 -Bogotá - San José del Guaviare
Our meeting point will be the Los heroes Shopping Centre in Bogotá. From here, we will head to the airport for our onward flight to San Jose del Guaviare. Upon arrival, we will head to the National Parks office for a welcome briefing about the Chiribiquete mountain range. Now being well-versed about the area, we will embark on our fly-over the Chiribiquete mountain range. The flyover lasts for approximately two hours. From the air, you can appreciate one of the most interesting natural treasures of the region -The Tespuyes or “table-top mountains”. These are one of the oldest geological formations on the planet dating back more than 1.3 billion years ago. These incredible mountains are made of quartzite rocks, sandstones, and granites. They can reach 2,000 metres elevation at their highest point and are characterized by flat surfaces and large vertical walls, giving rise to the famous cliffs. We will then head back to the hotel in San Jose de Guaviare.
Day 02 -San José del Guaviare - Ciudad de Piedra
After breakfast, we will head out by 4x4 jeep to the impressive Ciudad de Piedra, or “Stone City”. In Ciudad de Piedra, you can make out natural designs resembling rocky streets and avenues that will inspire your imagination. In the Los Tuneles sector, you will see a rocky outcrop with forms and angles that defy the laws of physics. It appears that the rocks form imposing caves and mazes because of their immensity and shape in this unique stone city. We will then return to the hotel for the evening.
Day 03 -San José del Guaviare - Cerro Azul
Once more we will head out in our 4x4 jeep to The Cerro Azul or “Blue Mountain”. This area is famous for a magnificent mural of cave paintings, dating back to over 1000 years ago. We will then hike for around 30 minutes to appreciate the red pictograms that were painted on the rocks by local indigenous people. We can witness the archaeological evidence of the pre-Hispanic interactions between the different Amazonian villages and the Orinoquía region. There is evidence to suggest the relationship between these towns and their natural environment was uniquely symbiotic. We will then pass through an open cave and climb until you reach a panoramic viewpoint that looks over the stunning panorama of the jungle. We will then return to San Jose del Guaviare for the evening.
Day 04 -San Jose del Guaviare – Bogotá
Today is our final day that we can spend doing various activities in San Jose del Guaviare and its surrounding area. You may take a walking tour in the city or visit the Guaviare River port to appreciate the spectacular views, amongst many other options. We will then head back to the airport for our return flight to the city of Bogotá and the end of our amazing journey.
