Ultimate Colombia

Welcome to Colombia! Your adventure starts today and you'll have the chance to meet your group and guide for the first time this evening, then we'll head out for a group dinner and get to know each other over a few drinks.

Today we're discovering all the highlights of Medellín, learning more about the city's history and how it has transformed into the iconic destination that it is today. Our most famous stop is Comuna 13, a historic neighbourhood that is now known best for its stunning art murals and welcoming community. Tonight you can join the group for some dinner before experiencing Medellín's nightlife!

Our adventure continues to Guatapé, home to little green islands floating around in the bright turquoise waters. Even more gorgeous in person, today we'll soak in all its natural beauty by climbing 650 steps up to the top of El Peñol Rock. Then a chilled afternoon awaits in Guatapé, as we explore the colourful streets and check out the cafes and local nightlife.

We're heading to a secluded town called Santa Rosa de Cabal today, with a scenic journey and bus karaoke along the way. Enjoy a free afternoon to explore town at your own pace. Then this evening, we'll unwind in some hot springs and enjoy the waterfall views.

Featuring curved emerald hills and towering palm trees, the Cocora Valley is easily one of the most breathtaking landscapes that Colombia has to offer. Today we'll be exploring this enchanting destination in all its glory, with a morning hike through the valleys. Later, we'll make our way to Salento, a cosy small town set in the mountains.

We'll start the day by visiting a traditional coffee farm, where we'll see how the beans are grown and roasted as well as savouring some delicious cups of coffee for ourselves. Then this afternoon, you're welcome to do your own thing or join the group for a fun game of Tejo!

Today we'll take an included flight to Cartagena, Colombia's enchanting city on the Caribbean coast. After enjoying some free time to settle in and refresh, we'll head out and start exploring Cartagena's vibrant streets. The Old Town of Cartagena makes an incredible first impression, from its rainbow-coloured historic architecture to rows of art murals and the famous laneways decorated with umbrellas. Then it's time to experience Cartagena's legendary nightlife!

Enjoy a free morning to explore Cartagena at your own pace before joining the group later for a catamaran cruise around Cartagena Bay. Head out onto the ocean and watch the sunset over the city skyline.
