The Llanos are Joropo. The Llanos are Creole horses. The Llanos are savanna, sun, and water.

Saddle up for the Ultimate Adventure in the Llanos of Colombia!

Travesías are not just journeys – they are the spirit of the eastern plains of Colombia, where the Llaneros, Colombia’s fearless cowboys, once guided their herds across the vast plains. These legendary cattle drives followed ancient caminos reales, narrow trails that connected key points across this untamed landscape. Once vital for trade and communication, today these paths stand as a proud testament to the region’s rich cultural heritage.

As we honor the traditions of the Llaneros, your ride will lead you through breathtaking nature reserves, where wilderness thrives in its purest form. In the saddle, you’ll be transported through time, blending history with the vibrant ecosystems of the region.

Ready for the ride of a lifetime? 

We invite you to join us on horseback, mounting our strong criollo horses, and preparing your maletera – your cowboy bedroll – for a journey that’ll leave you with memories as vast as the plains themselves. Along the way, we’ll stop at historic ranches and nature reserves, places brimming with history and teeming with wildlife. This is more than a journey; it’s a tribute to the land, to nature, and to the timeless cowboy spirit.

As you ride through the heart of the savannah, you’ll feel the pulse of the land beneath your boots, surrounded by people whose hearts beat with the soul of Los Llanos. Keep your eyes peeled for the abundance of wildlife in its natural habitat – capybaras, caimans, deer, anteaters, turtles, and a dizzying array of birds await!

And if fortune is on our side, we may just encounter the infamous Orinoco crocodile, giant river otters, green anacondas, or the elusive jaguar – the mighty feline prowling the wild heart of this land of adventure, culture, and history.

Our routes vary from 2 to 7 days of horseback riding through the Llanos, designed for both beginners and seasoned cowboys and cowgirls alike. Whether you’re looking for a true travesía experience – sleeping under the stars in your chinchorro hammock in the open stables – or a more comfortable stay with cozy private rooms on the farm, this journey will let you step away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Reconnect with nature, the wild horses, and all the untamed creatures of the Llanos.

This is more than just a trip – it’s an adventure, a journey into the heart of Colombia’s wild plains. 

So saddle up and come discover the Llanos in the most epic way possible: on horseback!
