Moravian Culinary Experiences: Tours & Tastings

Moravia was the old municipal dump of Medellin for many years. This mountain of waste, which has reached up to 40 meters in height, has today been transformed into a magnificent garden on the initiative of the inhabitants. By taking this tour accompanied by a social leader, you will discover this district of Moravia by walking through the magnificent landscaped garden located on the hill. Then, you will walk on the path illustrated with photos which retraces the impressive history of Moravia. You will visit the different nurseries run by gardening cooperatives. Finally, you will go to the hillock to admire the 360-degree view of the city of Medellin. With this tour you contribute to the transformation of the district thanks to the reforestation workshop. Travelers are therefore invited to plant a tree or plant on the side of the mountain to continue to give life to this surprising colorful garden.

The open garbage dump was operating from 1977 to 1984 and the people living around the trash used everything they found in the garbage and became experts in recycling, built their homes with the material and made anything possible to get an income out of the trash. Due to Colombia’s armed conflict more and more refugees arrived in Moravia, located right next to the city center. Moravia is known for its strong community spirit and the positive attitude of its people. Plenty of local community-run projects have transformed Moravia into a model urban centre, with the mound of trash turned into a garden-covered hillside.

South Moravia is the most important wine region in Czeh Republic. Miukulov is one of its charming historical cities located 2,5-hour drive from Prague. The region includes 96% of the country’s vineyards. Wine growing in this region has been reliably traced back to the Roman Empire period – the 2nd century AD. Ideally situated north of the Alps and at the Western edge of the Carpathian Mountains, the region benefits from a cooler climate, which excels at white wine production. Quality can be outstanding, especially the Moravian whites. Mikulov has certainly the highest concentration of wine cellars for tastings, as well as a fairytale chateau on a hill overlooking the town. Like a guardian, the Pálava Hills, declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, seem to be carefully watching the vines.

A private guide, storyteller, and proud local of the Moravian Karst – that’s me! I was born just a few steps from the deep forests and mysterious caves of this beautiful region, and I’ve been exploring them since I was a child. The Moravian Karst is not only home to more than 1,100 caves, underground rivers and gorges, but also to the stories and quiet connections that most visitors never get to see. It’s wild and peaceful, dramatic and gentle – and it’s only 30 minutes from Brno (yes, that close!). I believe that to truly understand a place, you need more than facts – you need context. That’s why I don’t just guide tours. I open doors to hidden meanings, family memories, and forgotten tales. I love when people start to feel the landscape, not just see it. So whether you want to walk through mediavel castles, breathe in the scent of the cave – I’ll tailor the walk to your rhythm, your curiosity, and your sense of wonder.
