After feeding your soul with music, it's time to satisfy your taste buds. Take a delicious food break, savoring local delicacies like fritanga (empanadas, marranitas, aborrajado), lulada, champús, and cholado. If you're hungry and you know it, you're covered. If you just want to refresh the afternoon heat, you're covered too.
With a full belly and a happy heart, let's continue our journey to the salsa neighborhood of Cali.
Depending on time, we may make a stop at a cool vynil discs shop where you can listen to and even buy some LP's, from salsa to international artists.
Located in the neighborhood where Cuban music first touched Cali and gave birth to the Cali salsa dancing style, the museum is a treasure trove of history. Founded by a local photographer and now led by the neighborhood's young generation, it offers a deep dive into the evolution of Salsa in Cali. Enjoy a family-friendly experience filled with music, dancing, history, and souvenirs. 1 beer/bottle of water is included.
After an exciting experience at the Salsa Museum where they will explain how Salsa got to Cali and why we're the Salsa capital of the world, and with all that information as an introduction to our culture, we will head down to a local Salsa School for you to have an introductory class! This is a group class with more people (depending on assistance) but if you want it private or better tailored to your level, it can also be, just let me know in advance.
