Thanks for sharing, I would like to be in one of those trips. I had not stopped in the road from Cali to Buenaventura. Maybe next time. What else did you see in San Cipriano??

San Cipriano For me, San Cipriano for the day trip is all about the "transport" to the town and the river. The river is lovely and clear and very refreshing amid the humidity!

A return trip on the "train" cost $7.000 - there is now a station that sells tickets. Funnily, on the back of the tickets it states something along the lines of "Insurance will only cover emergency first aid!" I was there 2.5 years ago and it was a case of bartering with the locals - that now seems to have ended.

Also 2.5 years ago, there were many brujas projected by a long pole and a person using their foot on the train line like a skate board - about 7km of real hard work for the poor sod that put all the effort in.

Also, it is now designated as a nature reserve and entance costs $1.500 (or was it $2.500, I can't remember!). I did not see any animals as I was only there a few hours when it was quite hectic with tourists during semana santa. 2.5 years ago, I stayed overnight - there are numerous places to stay - basic wooden rooms - and plenty of places to eat. Whilst there this time I had a beautiful sancocho de pescado!
