CARTAGENA BY FOUR SEASONS
Take a Street Art Workshop
Vibrant and colourful, the Four Seasons neighbourhood of Getsemaní, just outside the Walled City, is where Cartagena’s traditional way of life remains preserved. We will introduce you to a local guide who’ll take you on a walking tour of nearby streets and share stories about the local people and culture while spotlighting iconic examples of street art. You’ll then visit a private art space for a hands-on workshop to learn different graffiti techniques and create your own street art on canvas. This experience is exclusive to Four Seasons.1 / 4FEEL THE RHYTHMS OF SALSA
The land of a thousand rhythms, Colombia is home to a diverse and ever-evolving musical culture. Feel the music deep in your soul with an introductory lesson in salsa dancing, led by two professional dancers at one of the city’s top salsa clubs. The class can also include a demonstration of some of the wildest salsa spins and tricks. Exclusively available to Four Seasons guests.2 / 4TAKE A NATURE TREK TO MEET RARE MONKEYS
In this exclusive Four Seasons experience, drive an hour to visit a private nature reserve and go trekking with local biologists in search of the endangered cotton-top tamarin monkey. Native to northwestern Colombia and named for the white hair that tops their heads, these tiny primates typically weigh less than 0.5 kg (1.1 lb). During this two- to three-hour hike, you might also spot howler monkeys and many exotic bird species. We supply the binoculars, trekking poles and backpacks.3 / 4CRUISE TO STUNNING CARIBBEAN ISLANDS
Let Four Seasons arrange an unforgettable experience of Colombia by sea. Board a luxury yacht or catamaran and cruise to Isla Barú or explore the Islas del Rosario, an archipelago of 27 coral islands. This exclusive Four Seasons experience explores remote regions away from the crowds while an English-speaking host shares stories of history and culture along the way. Sunbathe on deck, splash into the sea and discover secret spots for snorkelling. A Four Seasons chef can prepare lunch on board – or you can enjoy a picnic of ceviche and champagne.4 / 4
