Colombia, a country of breath-taking contrasts, from misty mountain villages and buzzing urban centres to palm-fringed beaches and colonial towns that feel frozen in time.

Begin your journey in Colombia’s capital, where history and modern life blend effortlessly. Discover the colourful streets of La Candelaria on a guided walking tour, and experience the buzz of local life at the iconic Paloquemao market.
Travel to the lush highlands of Salento, one of Colombia’s most picturesque towns. Play a traditional game of tejo with the locals and settle in for two nights at a beautiful coffee estancia. Here, you’ll tour a working plantation, taste rich regional brews, and soak up the tranquillity of the Andes.
Once known for its turbulent past, Medellín has transformed into one of Latin America’s most innovative cities. Dive into its powerful story on a Barrio Transformation Tour, ride the Metrocable to the hilltop village of Santa Elena, and visit a vibrant flower garden that celebrates the region’s unique culture and resilience.
Fly to the Caribbean coast and experience Cartagena’s rich colonial charm. This vibrant city pulses with music, colour, and romance. Enjoy an orientation walk around your hotel neighbourhood and wander the cobbled streets, sun-drenched plazas and sea-view rooftops at your own pace.
Unwind in Guachaca, your base for exploring the pristine beaches and tropical forests of Tayrona National Park. Hike through palm-filled jungle trails, spot exotic wildlife and bask on the quiet shores of Colombia’s Caribbean coastline — a slice of paradise few have discovered.
End your journey in the peaceful hilltop town of Barichara, often hailed as Colombia’s most beautiful village. Visit a local artisan paper workshop and follow the historic Camino Real to the village of Guane, taking in sweeping views of the surrounding valleys and timeless landscapes.
