Overview

This tour combines history, tradition, and local cuisine with a theatrical performance by two characters who, through their witty banter, will showcase Bucaramanga’s rich culture and heritage. It begins at the renowned Casa del Libro Total and ends at the historic Patio de los Edecanes; winding its way through stories at the most important sites in Bucaramanga’s founding district, such as the Capilla de los Dolores, Bucaramanga City Hall, and Bucaramanga’s first park, among other places that preserve the city’s history.

This is a unique educational and cultural experience that allows both locals and tourists to enjoy what makes us proud to be from Santander.
