Overview & Highlights
Discover Colombia, famous for coffee and gold, but also with friendly people, superb Andean scenery, white sand Caribbean beaches, an abundance of flora and wildlife and atmospheric, historic towns.
Colombia is one of Latin America's most distinctive and until recently misrepresented countries, and is possibly the continent's most beautiful. This fascinating private journey explores a few of Colombia's highlights. Included are the rolling hills of coffee country outside the energetic capital Bogotá, and the white coral Rosario Islands off the Caribbean coast, visited from the seductive port of Cartagena, with its history of pirates and modern day arts scene.
Colombia's distinct and heady mixture of Hispanic, colonial, indigenous and African influences has left its mark on the food, music, architecture and culture; its vibrancy, welcoming people and extraordinary natural and architectural features make this an unusual and captivating journey.
