Explore San José del Guaviare: Colombia’s Hidden Amazonian Gem
Tucked between the Amazon and the Orinoco, San José del Guaviare is one of
Colombia’s most extraordinary destinations—where ancient rock art, jungle rivers,
and vibrant Indigenous cultures come together. This frontier town is a gateway to
landscapes unlike anywhere else: crystal-clear natural pools, rainbow-colored
streams, towering rock formations, and waterfalls hidden deep in the forest.
Step into history at Cerro Azul, where prehistoric cave paintings tell stories more
than 12,000 years old. Wander through the mysterious Stone City, with its labyrinth
of monoliths and petroglyphs, or marvel at the Orion Door, a rock formation aligned
with the stars. Wildlife thrives here too—you’ll find pink dolphins, monkeys, and
hundreds of bird species across rivers and reserves.
What makes San José truly special is its living culture. Local guides share traditions
of the Tucano, Nukak, and Guayabero peoples, while community festivals bring
music, dance, and regional flavors to life.
With our family-run, bespoke tours, you’ll explore San José del Guaviare in a way
few travelers ever do—blending nature, history, and culture into an unforgettable
adventure.
