Safari tent in Santander

A safari tent is a large canvas tent with a sturdy structure, a raised floor and standing height; inside it usually has a real bed and, sometimes, a private bathroom. In Santander, all four listings are advertised in that format, and some mix in another type: one is also listed as a capsule and another as a cabin. That indicates that the same place may have different units. What sets one tent apart from another is the bathroom, inside or separate, the floor, wood or bare earth, and the shade around it, so ask about those three points.

In the listing, all 4 tents have Bucaramanga as their reference city. The one in Piedecuesta is in the metropolitan area, right next to the capital; the 3 in Barichara are quite a bit farther, in the Guanentá province. If you arrive in Bucaramanga without a car, the Piedecuesta tent is the easiest to reach. For Barichara, ask the host about the connection from San Gil, the nearest big town, and about the last stretch to the finca, which the listing doesn't describe.
