DAY OF THE DEAD KITE FESTIVAL - Private tours (1 to 4 pax) dates: October 28 - November 5

Santiago's Day of the Dead Kite Festival is celebrated on the All Saints Day. It is dedicated to the dead, but it is a happy festival. The people fly kites, eat, sing and dance. Those who gather at the graveyards paint the graves blue, pink or green, decorate them with flowers and have picnics.
