Reviews

An unforgettable insight into the lives of the friendly people of Tumaco. We enjoyed, amongst other things, the company and teachings of the talented and charming members of the local band Bejugo, the Pacific culinary scene, the making of viche, the breathtaking nature - all guided by our attentive guide Adrian. The conditions are not for those seeking 5-star comfort, which makes the experience more real and totally worth it. This is the perfect tour for the adventurous minds. Thank you Marimbea!
