Tierradentro Tours

Local guides offer guiding services. Many charge only $5 or less, plus transportation. Two who have been recommended are Pedro and José, who linger around Hospedaje Ricabet or the hotel next door. Luza and Fabián, who have the café-artisan-tourist information shop across from Hospedaje Ricabet, also do tours (Cel: 313-637-9638/311-337-0573, E-mail: faluza@gmail.com). For other guides, contact Comité Etno Turístico de Tierradentro for other guides (Cel: 312-495-5516/314-734-1453/312-871-9413, E-mail: info@tierradentro-ecoturismo.com, URL: www.tierradentro-ecoturismo.com).

The various tomb sites can also be reached one horseback. Check at Parque Arqueológico for availability of horses or ask at your hotel. Be sure they are in good condition. The typical charge is $2.50 per hour.
