Thank you for providing this fantastic trip to a country where so many are still hesitant to travel to. Colombia is a diverse, beautiful, vibrant and amazing country to visit.…

Highlight: Cartagena: as romantic a destination as I had hoped.
DG, Sheffield Feb 2016
Our favourite organised trip was probably Cocora Valley. Absolutely stunning and the trek was tough, but well worth it. Our guide knew a lot about the wildlife and flowers too

It was a great trip, a nice balance of activity and free time and we felt we saw several different sides of Colombia.

Colombia was superb. A wonderful variety of scenery and cultures, and people trying their hardest to live normal lives and welcome visitors very genuinely
