Hotels near San Bernardo Airport - MMP, Mompos

You don't really need much time to know the town. You could stay longer if you just want to relax. Beautiful colonial town on the bank of the Magdalena River. Nicely preserved the unique architecture of the colonial times. It may still be better preserved, however. It could become in a real (and unique) touristic spot in the middle of the Magdalena Valley.

Mompox is the quintessential first river city of Colombia. It’s founding transcended historically and economically and it’s authenticity is represented in its inhabitants who throughout the years have preserved the traditions that keep them going!

Beautiful city but at this time under road constructions whic is sandy ans messy. Great optons in food and variety at the Malecon which is the best place to walk and spent the entire day. Ask for the walking tour, go on the flat ship thorugh the river, great experienes. Filigrana is awesome, we went to places to understan what it means and how it is made.

The tranquility of the place and the beauty of the old colonial buildings. A lot of money has already gone into beautifying the village in a way totally consistent with its colonial history. Unfortunately major works to repair paving of the roads and put cabling underground is still ongoing which makes it dusty and noisy in many locations but once the work is completed it will be wonderful. The trip by small boat to do birdwatching on the lake is a must as is a guided walking tour of the village sites. Mompox Retro are a good group to use with knowledgeable guides. Don’t go on the planchon if you want to see birds as the loud music frightens them away! Good restaurants were Santa Coa, Comedor Costeño, Fuerte and Inmaculada.

Pretty pueblo, but, oh, so sweltering hot. The view of the river is non existent from the place in which i stayed as the municipality is conducting repairs to the river bank. This has been going on from September i understand.

Surprisingly interesting. We took a flora and fauna boat tour which was lovely. Weekends come alive with visitors, week days are quiet. Café 1700 is the best food in town, you can sit in a rocking chair under a fan watching the river flowers by and birds and iguanas playing.
