Please RSVP by July 15th, 2024
We will leave the hotel by 8:30am and arrive to Salento by 10 an. We'll have some time to explore this lovely town, walk along the cobblestone streets, admire the bright architecture, and shop traditional artisanal items! Then we will meet for lunch all together at noon. After lunch we will drive to Cocora Valley to see this jaw-dropping landscape, take some photos, and maybe stop to drink a coffee and take in the view. There wille be hopefully time for people to take short hikes or horseback riding if you'd like! Then we'll return back to the hotel.
What do I wear? Comfortable close-toed shoes, casual wear, bring hat/sunglasses, maybe a long sleeve or a short sleeve with light sweater as the temperature in Salento ranges from 65-75F. Don't forget sunblock :) Despite the cool temperatures, the sun is very strong.
