While researching the trip we came across Sucre. We marked it as a place to check out and were quite excited to get there. It did not disappoint! A colonial town with white-washed buildings offered a very European feel.
We based ourselves out of Sucre to complete a two day trek in the Cordillera de los Frailes. It is a must! Hiking up to the Maragua Crater was exceptional. So different and so unique.
We hired a guide for the hike and completed it with another couple from Denmark, Thomas and Simone. The guide only spoke Spanish which helped me to work on mine while trying to translate for the group. Thomas and Simone were great to get to know and really added to the experience.
Oddly enough, after the hike we spent another night in Sucre and enjoyed a great meal at a Venezuelan restaurant, Bienmesabe. If you are ever in Sucre, eat here!
