The experience
The day starts with a drive from Bogotá to El Rosal in Cundinamarca (about an hour to an hour and a half depending on traffic) with pickup at 10:30 or 11:00 am as you choose. You arrive at Criadero Lusitania Farm, where a cup of Colombian coffee and a conversation about the farm's three-generation history sets the pace. The first part of the tour takes you through the facility and its different stations, designed to show you the full breeding process and introduce you to some of the farm's most emblematic horses.
After a traditional Colombian lunch, the second part moves to the track. This is where you see the Paso Fino in motion: watching its distinctive gaits and learning how the farm's genetics shape each horse. The guide walks you through what you're seeing, explaining the breeding decisions and the traits that make these horses stand out. You return to Bogotá around 6:30 pm.
