Temporary Closing of Tayrona Nationalpark

As every year, we just received the news, that Tayrona National Park situated close to Santa Marta at the Caribbean Coast will be closed from 28th of January 2018 until 28th of February 2019. This means, that also all hotels, located inside the park, will be closed. Excursions into the park are suspended throughout that period as well. The purpose of the closing of the park is for its flora and fauna to fully recover.

If any of our clients are affected by the closing we will contact you immediately.

As an alternative to the full day trip to Tayrona we suggest e.g. the following tour to Taironaka: 

Full Day Tour Taironaka & “Playa Los Angeles"

Taironaka is an authentic natural paradise located in the “Don Diego” riverbanks and the foothills of Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. This extinct indigenous settlement still counts with paths and terraces of the Tayrona civilization and nowadays is visited by their descendants, the Kogis. This reserve delights visitors with its exhuberant flora, fascinating landscapes and crystal clear rivers. From Santa Marta we will go through the interesting coastal road until we reach the Don Diego’s riverbanks (90 Mins). From there the journey will be continued on a boat going upstream ‘til we get to the reserve. As a welcome we are received with some typical “patacones and “agua de panela”. Later we visit the small Tayrona Museum to get to know a little more about their history and the way of living of this culture from the past to these recent days. We will visit a typical Kogui home called Bohío and then we continue going around the prehispanic terraces until we get to a small viewpoint (around 1,5 hours). The rest of the time is free. We suggest either a relaxing bath in Don Diego River. Afterwards we visit the amazong beaches of Playa Los Angeles that are located next to the Tayrona National Park.
