Highlights

Discover Aracataca, Gabo's hometown, a lovely and traditional village that inspired him to create the fictional and magical town of Macondo (Buendia family home town), mentioned and used as location for several of his novels and short stories. Understand the imaginary of Colombia's greatest man in literature, follow his steps and live a cultural immersion in a real Colombian Caribbean town.

Itinerary

  • Estación De Policia

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Aracataca's old train station inspired Gabo and played a huge role in 100 years of solitude since it was the way Macondians were introduced to the new inventions, breakthroughs, and people who placed in Macondo all of their hopes to live a "brighter" future.
  • Casa Museo Gabriel Garcia Marquez

    30 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Once you read Gabo and immerse into his magical stories, we sometimes wonder, where did he get all of his inspiration? In order to understand him better, it is worth to follow his steps, walking the same streets, and visiting this museum that gathers important information about his life and achievements.
  • Casa del Telegrafista

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    We will also visit the Casa del Telegrafista, a place that inspired Gabo to write his heartbreaking story "Love in the Time of Cholera". Here you will be able to buy souvenirs and Gabo's books.
