What you can expect
Most travellers get to know a city through its most famous landmarks.
But the real Cali can be found in its areas, in its public spaces… and in its everyday life.
“You don’t visit Cali… you become part of it.”
I'm Andrés Jiménez, a certified bilingual local guide, and this is not a traditional tour.
It's an immersion into the real city.
Guided by me, you will discover a Cali that many travellers never get to know…
the Cali that is talked about, walked through, and lived.
Our journey begins at the Departmental Library, an important cultural centre.
From there, the city begins to reveal itself little by little.
Like the interactive museum: my top recommendation.
You’ll visit places that tell stories, not just show photos:
• Parque de los Estudiantes, where you can feel the city’s youthful energy
• The Jovita Feijóo monument, a symbol of the spirit of Cali
• Nature Park in Versalles, a green oasis amidst the urban hustle and bustle
• The historic Railway Station, a witness to Cali's growth
• The terminal area, where everything moves and everything happens
• Streets filled with murals, life, and authenticity.
But what really changes everything… is how you get around.
We'll use public transport and local dynamics, just as residents do every day.
Not just to get around… but to understand the city from the inside.
During the tour, you won’t just hear stories—you’ll gain an understanding of how Cali is built.
We’ll talk about its history, its areas, its culture, its traditions…
and about that invisible energy that makes this city feel alive.
Along the way, you’ll have the option of sampling local street food,
because some flavours also tell stories.
In the end, you won’t just be taking home photos.
You'll take home something more difficult to explain…
The feeling of having been part of Cali, even if only for a few hours.
This is not tourism.
It's connection.
So I ask you…
Do you want to see the city… or do you want to experience it?
Be different.
Trip captain,
Andrés Jiménez
