Itinerary

Good Vibes & Good Times at a Tropical Coastal Town
1 stop
1
Our tour to Colombia starts in the Caribbean town of Santa Marta. Although there are some relics of historic architecture, Santa Marta is best used as a base from which to make a daytrip to Tayrona National Park. At least on the weekends, Santa Marta boasts a very vibrant nightlife scene, with performers in the main square and people walking the streets checking out local bands playing inside the restaurants. We are to take a guided tour in the early evening.

Before relocating by land to the colonial city of Cartagena, we make a daytrip from Santa Marta to Tayrona National Park. Upon arrival, we go on a horseback ride to reach what is considered the prettiest beach in all of Colombia.

Cartagena
Our day starts with a daytrip to El Totumo Volcano. There we dip inside its mud pool and are then scrubbed by an experienced local. After being washed down, we return to Cartagena and explore. Characterized by beautiful balconies, rich architecture, stone-paved alleyways, charming cafes and romantic restaurants, Cartagena is undoubtedly Colombia’s showcase destination.

Day 4
An Architecturally Impressive Place to See
1 stop

Cartagena
We spend the day exploring Cartagena. This UNESCO-designated city grows on us rather quickly: cheerful and colorful sites, ambiance, food, and a great nightlife scene. Its landmarks and colonial streets will enchant you. If you have more time, consider adding a daytrip from Cartagena to the Rosario Islands. Although there is not anything specific to see, spending the day snorkeling and going from tropical island to tropical island puts a smile on most people's face.

The Scenic Landscape We All Dream About
1 stop
5
Salento
We relocate by flight from Cartagena to the city of Pereira and immediately head to Cocora Valley. There we find the most stunning mountainous landscape the country has to offer. There we also have the opportunity to take photos with artistic objects (flower displays, a colorful car, a tall hand statue, etc.). Lastly, we are taken to Salento. We sleep in this colonial town this evening. Before ending today’s tour, we walk the historic streets and get views from attractive lookout points.

Medellin
There is a lot to see before relocating by flight from Pereira to the city of Bogota. Our morning starts with leaving Salento and heading to a coffee plantation. There we are provided with a guided tour followed by sampling some of the region's best coffees. We are then taken to the colonial town of Filandia. There we are provided with a guided tour as well as walk up to a stunning lookout point. We are then taken to a thermal pool located in the village of Thermales. There we relax in the naturally warm waters before checking out the waterfall.

Day 7
A Church Built within the Tunnels of a Salt Mine & Colorful Cobblestone Streets
1 stop
7
Guatape
We make a daytrip from Bogota first to the colonial town of Villa de Leyva and then to the Salt Cathedral. Along with Barichara (which is relatively far away from the country's highlights), Villa de Leyva is the prettiest of Colombia's small historic towns. It is best explored on foot. The Salt Cathedral is an underground Roman Catholic church built within the tunnels of a salt mine 200 metres underground in a halite mountain. It is a tourist destination and a place of pilgrimage in the country.

Day 8
The Nation’s Version of Beverly Hills as well as a Charming Main Square
1 stop
8
Medellin
We spend the day checking out the capital of Colombia. Highlights include a viewpoint called Montserrat, the Gold Museum and the Cathedral. Nonetheless, Bogota's historic attractions are not its greatest draw. The city features relatively wealthy neighborhoods, comparable to Beverly Hills in the United States. We spend time in the area checking out the restaurants, shops and nightlife. Locals dress to impress in this district of Bogota. Prepare to go people-watching.
8 hours • Admission ticket free
Day 9
A Destination World Renowned for Passion, Fashion & Dancing
1 stop
9
We relocate by flight from Bogota to the city of Medellin and immediately start exploring. We take a cable car ride to a popular lookout point. We also visit the downtown area, home to churches, parks, street stalls and some historic buildings featuring decorative interiors. We also head to what was once the most dangerous neighborhood in Colombia, if not in the world. Today, it is an area which symbolizes peace. It hosts several art galleries and a museum which displays objects of devices used during times of war. Above this neighborhood is a nice lookout point, reached by escalator. While we are there, hopefully a music band and/or a dance group will be performing. They bring a lot of good energy to the area. After dinner, we go on a guided nightlife tour. There are few places on Earth which have a nightlife scene as vibrant as here, spreading in every direction for several blocks.
