Travel to Colombia

A tour of Colombia is a step into the unknown; a world of unexpected pleasures, be it on a street corner, as you head along a trail or at the end of long hike. Whether you’re wandering around its urban hubs or trekking across its expansive lands, you’ll be continually surprised by the hidden wonders you’ll meet along the way. Bogota, for example, is an ideal first stop. Stroll around the historic centre and the colonial quarter of Candelaria or take a break in its numerous little squares and parks. Then there’s Columbian music…what better way to perfect your salsa or cumbia dance moves? For those of you interested in pre-Columbian culture, then a visit to the Gold Museum, home to the world’s largest collection of gold exhibits, is a must! Once you’ve got a taste for the country, it’ll be time to hit the road and continue your trip back in time. There’s the colonial town of San Augustin with its nearby archaeological park, a minefield of monumental statues and sacred tombs, followed by the historic site of Tierradentro, home to mysterious, esoteric pyramids! If your thirst for knowledge remains unquenched, you can then head to Cartagena, Popayan or Cali. In fact, there’s so much to do during a trip that, to quote a local saying, ‘the only problem you’ll have in Colombia is not wanting to leave!’
