We will visit the Kogui indigenous community of Tungueka. To get there we will walk two hours. This is a settlement of more than 100 Kogi families. Here we can learn more about their customs and traditions. Afterwards we will enjoy a bath in a beautiful well very close to the settlement.

We will return for lunch in Río Ancho. And then we will travel to the Don Diego River for a relaxing tubing trip along this beautiful river to the mouth of the sea. With luck, you will be able to observe howler monkeys and various birds, in the estuary you will be entranced by the meeting of the Don Diego River with the sea in a wonderful landscape.
