What makes this place distinctive

Dry ground reaches the Caribbean coast in La Guajira. Cabo de la Vela and Punta Gallinas can be your destinations. I arrange journeys and encounters with Wayuu culture through local people.

Choosing the right experiences

Fewer stops leave more time for landscapes and encounters. I explain vehicles, daily drives, bathrooms, sleeping arrangements and meals before your journey. After returning, I leave time before your next flight.

Getting around and local experiences

I plan the days around journeys between Riohacha, Cabo de la Vela and Punta Gallinas. I confirm the vehicle, properties, sleeping arrangements, bathrooms and meals. Fewer stops leave more time on site.

Suggested itinerary

  1. I begin your agreed multi-day route from Riohacha with confirmed transport and accommodation.

  2. You experience Cabo de la Vela and its surroundings with time between drives.

  3. I add Punta Gallinas on longer routes. Otherwise, you have more time at your base and returning.
