A moving peace building experience where excombatants and victims team up to share with you the immensity and beauty of Mompox and the Montes de María, former war-torn areas near Cartagena.
Allied with Agencia Colombiana por la Reintegración (ACR) a government agency that enables excombatants to become active part in society after they decide to leave the war, we created this heartfelt tour of one of the most beautiful areas in northern Colombia.
