Leymebamba beauty - I went independently to Leymebamba
I do NOT normally do tours unless there is no option
I went to the museum as l sm an anthropologist and archaeology is a passion of mine
45 minutes which is suggested by tours is NOzT enough for me
However l recognise that some people may want to do the tour with the mausoleum as well as the mausoleum is far away and difficult to access independently
If you like archaeology this is mind blowing
I stayed at la Petaca Hotel which is excellent but no one here speaks English
Learn some Spanish
People here are kind and hospitable but so far little infrastructure for tourists which suits me!
