The Experience

La Katia es una granja en transición de peces a plantas acuáticas. Este vivero es de una familia desde hace mas de 30 años, en la cual también trabaja una familia desde hace mucho tiempo. EL ambiente es amistoso y muy local. La Katia esta situada a 15 minutos del parque Tayrona y cerca de muchos lugares muy bonitos en la zona. Esta en bus a 45 minutos del centro de Santa Marta. En la finca hay un rio muy lindo que se puede visitar y explorar.

Tuve una hermosa experiencia en la granja! El equipo de trabajo es muy agradable y las tareas son sencillas y entretenidas. Katherine es muy amable y explica todo con paciencia y entusiasmo. Recomiendo mucho si te gusta la naturaleza y no te molesta convivir con insectos y otros animales silvestres. Pude ver monitos, iguanas, culebras y muchas arañas! Se siente como vivir un safari 🤩 Los peces y plantas con los que trabajan son maravillosos y aprendí mucho sobre ellos. La joya sin dudas es el río! Tienen acceso privilegiado al río Piedras que es uno de los más hermosos de la zona. 10/10❤️

Mi experiencia en la granja fue realmente increíble. El lugar es hermoso, lleno de vida y tranquilidad, y las personas que lo habitan lo hacen aún más especial. Kathe es una mujer maravillosa: desde el momento en que llegas te explica todo con claridad y te comparte recomendaciones muy útiles. Don Pablo, quien trabaja en la granja, es un ser humano encantador, siempre dispuesto a ayudar y responder cualquier pregunta. Recomiendo la granja a todas las personas que quieran conectarse con la naturaleza, aprender de ella y disfrutar de su belleza auténtica.🦋🌻🌌🌈🌊🪷💛🙏

Tuve una muy buena experiencia, el lugar está ubicado estratégicamente, puedes tomar un bus y hacer pequeños viajes para conocer playas y ríos al rededor. La zona tiene mucha naturaleza. La propiedad tiene un río al lado , ideal si no quieres salir y descansar junto al río. El trabajo no es difícil y se aprende sobre las plantas acuáticas. Importante es estar vestido bien cómodo e hidratarse. Muy recomendado para los viajeros.
