Museo del Oro Zenu
On this tour, you will be picked up at your hotel to take you to Zenú Gold Museum where you will see amazing gold ornaments crafted by ancient Zenú indigenous. The Zenú indigenous guide will give you a deep insight and further information of the pieces and their iconography full of meaning and history that reflects Zenú’s worldview.
After the visit, you will head the 20 de Julio neighborhood, a peripheral area in Cartagena, where the Ninha workshop takes place. When you arrive, you will meet resilient indigenous women who lead this weaving project and workshop as a way to support their families and keep alive their endangered indigenous heritage. Through this group of women, you will get to know the history of the Zenú people, the struggles they have faced, and their story of resilience. Also, you will learn the process of Caña Flecha, the primary raw material used to make their woven crafts, on how to weave with this material, and which are the symbolic meanings of the famous Sombrero Vueltiao. During the workshop, you can enjoy a traditional maize and coconut beverage and a snack.

The guided museum tour was very informative but the visit to the project was fantastic. It was an opportunity to see beyond the tourist area and to learn about the art of weaving and today’s Zenú people. Thank you for a great day

This tour takes you off the typical Cartagena tourist experiences and immerses you in the local history and culture of the Zenu. Wonderful tour of the Museo del Oro but the best was actually visiting a local woman's workshop where they are securing future of the Zenu weaving crafts. After spending time there I guarantee you'll have a greater appreciation of indigenous crafts and what it takes to keep those skills and their culture alive.
