Experience the real rumba in Cali with a local. If you come to the World Capital of Salsa, this is the sightseeing tour you need to feel like a local from Cali: meeting people, sharing drinks, and learning about our history and our dance steps.
Our night begins at 9:00 PM on the vibrant Bulevar del Río (Meeting point: Malamaña Carrera 4 # 9-59). There, we'll enjoy the breeze with some local beers, breaking the ice and connecting with the city's atmosphere. Then, we'll walk to the iconic Calle del Sabor, the cultural epicenter, where I'll tell you a little about its history. We'll mingle with the crowd, and I'll teach you the most basic steps so you can let loose and dance.
After that, we'll go into MalaMaña, an iconic salsa brava bar with a totally authentic and underground vibe. It's the ideal place to experience the bell toll, hang out with local friends, and feel the real rumba of the town center.
The energy levels up when we board the Chiva Rumbera, our traditional party bus. Here the experience becomes even more social: we mingle with more people, talk, share, and enjoy an open bar of local spirits as we tour the city.
The grand finale will be at the trendy Club 10.60, a spectacular space to finish dancing to the best mix of rhythms. The sightseeing tour ends at 2:00 AM, leaving you at the peak of the party after having had a 100% authentic, intimate, and local experience.
