Ciudad Perdida Teyuna

  We had such an amazing 4-day adventure hiking up to the Lost City through the jungle. We had two fantastic guides: Beto (who helped to uncover the city when it... read more was first discovered) and Stiwen (who translated to English for us, and who also took really good care of us if we needed anything). We loved Stiwen’s sense of humour!

We can highly recommend this adventure — definitely a highlight of our trip so far! the sleeping conditions at the camps in the jungle were better than I was expecting. We had effective mosquito nets over basic beds (with frames and mattresses).

Strongly recommend taking proper hiking boots and industrial-grade mosquito repelant

Great variety of meals, including snacks throughout the day - thanks Jaun P (our dedicated chef)! We certainly did not go hungry at any point!

  We had 4 unforgettable hiking days with our guide Tato. He took care of the group with full dedication. He responded to all the needs of the group, if someone... read more did not feel well, or even organized mulas for those who unfortunately got sick during the hike. The translator Nick was always present and translated in a very good English the history of the Lost City and all other historical inputs. The assistant guide Ramon was also always helpful and radiated a positive energy that made hiking easier. The vegetarian food was excellent and there were always snacks, thanks to the cook Patricia.
Only something negative has struck us on the hike, along the way were many homeless dogs that were partly in a very bad condition. Possibly one could take care of this problem.

Apart from that, it was a wonderful experience and everything worked out super well.
Thanks again to the whole team.

  Did an amazing trekking with Teyuna tours. The groups were kept small and the guides where full of knowledge, fun and really caring. Your not a number in the group... read more but they really pay attention when you need them. If you want to do Ciudad Perdida with guides who really understand and care for the history of Colombia and the National Park than you should book Teyuna.

  Thank you so much Teyuna Tours for such a magical trip!

I had never been anywhere like this before, wasn't quite sure exactly what to expect, and I loved... read more every moment of it. From the guides, to the jungle, to the accommodation, it was all fantastic.

Walking through the jungle, all the guides know each other and you feel like part of one big family. Every was lovely, but our guides were definitely the best! Pedro is a local who has lived in the area for many years and trekked up the mountain over 4000 times, everyone who passed him would say 'legend!' because he is by far one of the most experienced. Stiwen is also a local and an English speaker. He was always on the lookout for wildlife and enjoyed making a few jokes every now and then.

The accommodation and facilities were great. Our chef was Pedro's son, Ricardo, and the food was delicious. The veggie options also went down really well with the group. Our beds were very comfy and each night Pedro and Stiwen would tell us about the history of the area and its people.

The hiking itself was wonderful. I love nature and I love getting away from my phone and just taking in my surroundings. The jungle is beautiful and the mountains were magnificent. There were also lots of stops on the way where we were given some fruit, could get a drink and have a rest. This was very much appreciated and kept us refuelled, ready to power on.

The Lost City itself was a place like no other - absolutely stunning. The view from the 2nd plaza - wow! The restoration work is very impressive and just when you think that's it, there was always more! It was definitely worth the hike - vale la pena!

Part of the tour also involves sitting down and listening to one of the Wiwa tribe tell you about their tribe and their ways - this was a great honour. We have a lot to learn from the Sierra Nevada tribes!

The whole experience was one like no other I will ever experience again, from the hot chocolate, to falling asleep to the sound of the river, to watching local children playing by swinging through the vines.

Pedro y Stiwen - muchísimas gracias a los dos! Son los mejores guías en el mejor lugar en todo el mundo! Espero que estén disfrutando sus vacaciones!

If you go to Colombia, contact Teyuna Tours and do this trip!

  Absolutely astonishing place and 100% recommended for adventurers. We spent 4 days hiking in the jungle with the best guide (Pedro) and the best translator ( Stiwen). They added so... read more much cultural value to the trip sharing their personal experiences, the history of the Lost city and the region and the indigenous ways. Top notch guides indeed and all thanks to the experienced team of Teyuna Tours.

We were not expecting much from the food as we were in the middle of the jungle, but we were positively surprised with the quality of the meals offered by the company in each of the campsites. The chefs are also familiar with the mountain treks and do the trip with us, so every time we got to a stop to eat we would have a traditional fresh meal already waiting for us (If you like quantity, ask for it as there may be some leftovers 😉 ).

Pedro and Stiwen are so respectful with the nature and also with the indigenous living there, that they trat them as their own. Everytime somebody from a tribe passed outlr side they would stop a second to greet "Pedrito".

This is indeed one of the best organised tours I have seen, 10 out of 10 and the peoples quality is heart warming. You will not be disapointed.

Thanks for everything Teyuna!

  Did the 5 day trek with a friend and had a great time! Had the best guides you can ask for, Misael (el tigre) and Camilo. Very lovable people with... read more a lot of heart. The trek itself was beautiful and the food was also good. Would definitely recommend to any and everyone.

  We did the lost city trek with teyuna tours. It was a very special experience. The guides Misael and Camilo were very committed to give us the best experience. They... read more were there when you needed their help and they gave us a lot of information about the jungle and the indigenous who live there.
I would definitely recommend teyuna tours and especially our guides Misael and Camilo!

  What an experience this was, made all the better by Tatiana and Teyuna tours! I really can't fault the 4-day trek that was organised by Teyuna Tours. Don't expect luxury... read more and home comforts because it's a tough trek and the sleeping conditions in the camp aren't great..but that's all part of the fun.

From meeting at the Teyuna Tours office in Santa Marta, the organised transport, our food cooked in camps, the support on the trek and the education and learning along the way - Tatiana was the most wonderful of tour leads.

Would highly recommend.

  We had an amazing time with the best guides Pedro and Stiwen! Besides all the information they gave us, they carried us through the whole track making sure we are... read more alright. Couldn't have asked for anything else.
It is an unique, tiring but amazing experience and you miss something if you're not doing it! 😀
The staff in the office is also super friendly and helpful. It is for sure a good choice! Thanks guys 😉

  Ciudad Perdida (4-day hike), it was an amazing tour! Beautiful hikes, very good food and drinks durind the days. Camps are basic which is sufficient, beds for everyone and clean... read more showers/toilets. River next to camps for a swim after a day of hiking to refresh. Guides and staff (Pipe, Tatiana, Indio, Samuel and cooks) are amazing, very helpful and making the group feel like 1 team. During heavy rainfall on the return they ensured the group to safely pass some high water with strong current and brought all of us back to our camp in time.

  I went on a tour to the lost city with this fantastic company. Although in the end all the companies offer the same tour, I must say that I found... read more myself with a beautiful international group with whom I really spent 4 good days. The guides horje, duban, hernan were great and we didn't miss anything giving us valuable advice and helping those who had difficulties throughout the journey. Thank you teyuna Tours!!

  My wife and I loved the tour organised by Teyuna agency to the lost city. Everyone was so knowledgeable, kind & sympathetic.
They made the trek ever so much... read more more enjoyable.
What a great 4 days of effort, sharing authentic experiences and eating local products all along the way.
Thank you Indio, Tatiana, Pipe, Samuel, El Mono & Jonathan.
I will recommend you to all my friends !
The tour just ended, our bodies are still recuperating but we're already nostalgic about what we just lived.

  What an experience, it was amazing. The Tayuna family is a lovely family. Tatyana, Pipe, Samuel and Indio guided us perfectly to the Ciudad Perida. They did their very best... read more to make everything perfect. They told us al lot about the indigenous people, their way of living and the rituals.
The 2 cooks made delicious meals every single day. I needed to eat glutenfree, witch wasn’t a problem at all. Thank you Tayuna family!

  We had an unforgettable time hiking to the lost city with Teyuna tours. We really appreciated the smaller group size which led to a very authentic experience, particularly at the... read more lost city itself where it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. Our guides Ruth and Stiwen provided great support on the hike itself and shared plenty of insights to the indigenous communities. The food was always plentiful, varied and delicious!

  The trip was incredible even though it was really hard! The Teyuna team made a great group and I think we got a more genuine insight into the area, the... read more history and traditions of the local people than other groups. Thank you Paisa and Indio for a really rewarding 4 days!
