Horse-riding, culture and wildlife-watching

The tour begins at 9am and ends at 5pm (or at an time previously agreed upon). El Paraíso invites you to come horse-riding for a day. Milk cows, ride through the savannah, and enjoy a tour in a traditional canoe. We’ll meet at the gate of the finca. Coffee in hand, beneath the cover of the traditional Caney, you’ll hear what sets the people of the Llano apart. You’ll hear traditional poetry and song. Riding through the savannah with your guide, one such song will be used to round up the cattle. You’ll pass through our ponds, our fields and our forests.

This plan involves:

1

Horse-riding

Llano people take their horses from the stable, learning to ride with the traditional reins and saddle.

Start: 09:00 am
End: 05:00 pm

2

Llano Museum

The Llanero home, testament to life on the savannah, reflects our traditions, tools and history. You’ll also hear traditional Llanero poetry and song.

3

Wildlife-watching

See the animals that live at our finca, including spectacled caiman, great potoo, burrowing owl, capybara and red-footed tortoise. Then take a break in our hammocks before a dip in the swimming pool.
