What you can expect

  • This sightseeing tour starts with pick-up from your accommodation, from where we'll head to the first free-thinking cemetery in Barranquilla, created by the Brothers of Charity, who decided to establish this space for everyone, without discrimination based on religious or political beliefs. This is where this unique place was born, with an aesthetic beauty that makes it worth visiting as a cultural landmark. This place is also worth visiting because of the city's cultural fervor, with some figures who have placed their faith in it as a bridge between the earthly and the celestial, where some people believe it has something special. In short, this place is worth exploring for its many historical and cultural aspects.
