Discover Silvia: Guided Tours and Local Experiences

Silvia is a colorful town in the heart of Colombia, famous for its indigenous Guambiano culture, vibrant markets, and scenic Andean landscapes. This mountain village offers a unique window into local traditions, making it a must-visit for travelers seeking authentic experiences far from the usual tourist routes.

A Glimpse Into the Past

Founded in the 16th century, Silvia has long been recognized as a meeting point between different cultures. Today, it stands out for its close connection to the Guambiano people, who have preserved their customs and distinctive clothing, lending the town a unique charm that's hard to find elsewhere.

When to Visit

The climate in Silvia is cool and pleasant all year round due to its altitude. However, if you want to enjoy the weekly market in its full splendor and see the town bustling with activity, plan your visit on a Tuesday—market day—when the streets come alive with color and local flavor.

Do I need special permits to visit indigenous territories?

No special permits are needed for most areas open to visitors, especially the town and the markets. However, it's important to respect local customs and ask for permission before photographing people or private events.
