On this tour through the towns of the department of Boyacá, we'll discover the history, culture & typical architecture of this magical region of Colombia.
We'll meet at the indicated time on Carrera 9 in Villa de Leyva and embark on a tour through the towns of the department of Boyacá.
Our first stop will be in Paipa, where we'll take a guided tour of the historic center to see its cobblestone streets and the San Miguel Arcángel Church. Afterward, we'll go to the Vargas reservoir to check out the Monument to the Lancers and talk about the battle between patriot and royalist troops during the independence struggle of New Granada.
We'll continue the route in the colonial town of Iza to admire its historic houses and visit the Franciscan El Divino Salvador Church. After a brief tour, we'll set out for Tota Lagoon, the largest freshwater reservoir in Colombia. In this beautiful setting, we'll have a delicious lunch with trout and a drink. If you wish, you can also take a boat for a ride around the lagoon.
Next, we'll travel to the municipality of Tibasosa and take a guided tour of the main park, the Chapel of the Immaculate Conception, and the Parish of Our Lady of the Rosary, a temple with vestiges from the 16th century. We'll also visit the traditional bakeries to learn all about the use of feijoa in the local gastronomy.
Our last stop will be at Pueblito Boyacense, a very special place that displays replicas of typical houses of towns in the department of Boyacá. You'll feel like you're on a movie set!
Finally, we'll start on our way back to Villa de Leyva, where the approximate arrival is 13 hours after pickup.
