Traveler Reviews of San Gil
Such a High!!
100%If you are looking to do some fun and adventurous stuff, San Gil is definitely your place. There is all levels of rafting, Paragliding (called Parapente), rappelling, caving, you name it! There are also all different kinds of tour companies, from the true Colombian, to the English speaking. We went with the Colombian and made some lifelong friends along the way. Also, as in many many Latin towns, El Centro was a favorite place to be. The park was always filled with people, women dressed to the nines walking around on cobblestone in their stillettos, children running around, tinto everywhere, it was a favorite in all of Colombia!
