Overview

Tour one of the cities with the greatest ethnic diversity in Colombia, the so-called “Sultana del Valle” or “La Sucursal del Cielo”. Famous for its Salsa rhythms and acrobatic shows, Cali hides a huge, fighting and brilliant past that enriches our lives today.

Throughout this cultural tour, you will relive our historical process that led us to civil wars, harsh moments of discrimination, and brilliant minds that recite Cali in poems and songs about its beautiful mountains, our beautiful women, and the love we have for the city. .

It is important to know the feeling and the current situation of the people after the pandemic to understand the resistant culture that we represent for the whole country. From its colonial houses to the Jairo Varela Museum, you will recognize and savor the great Cali race that we are: Afro, indigenous and European!
