Description

Join us on a complimentary salsa tour in Cali, where you will explore the roots of one of the globe’s most beloved musical styles and its connection to urban art in the capital of Valle del Cauca, Colombia.

Tour Overview

We will convene at Plazoleta Jairo Varela to embark on our complimentary salsa tour through Cali. Are you prepared to uncover the ways this city has embraced salsa as its defining sound?

We will begin our journey navigating through the lively streets of Cali, delving into the history of Salsa in Colombia. What sparked the genesis of this genre, and how has it transformed within the country? We are eager to share these insights with you!

Along the route, we will pause to appreciate the contemporary murals that provide an intriguing look into the historical and cultural tapestry of the city. Did you know that salsa music symbolizes a movement for African emancipation in Colombia? It’s incredible how its infectious rhythm conveys joy despite its powerful message!

We will explore how salsa and urban art have been integral to Calian identity since the 1960s, influencing the cultural landscape nationwide. The murals we will visit feature legendary salsa figures who have become synonymous with the genre. Moreover, we’ll uncover the political and social narratives woven into this artistic expression: each dance move and every stroke of the brush carries significance!

Our experience will culminate approximately three hours after we begin our tour.
