Latin America's colonial gem on the Caribbean Coast, Colombia embraces its natural beauty. Color dominates here, with brightly-colored buildings and lush green plantations. From walking amid hummingbirds, to tasting the local coffee, it's never been a more exciting time to visit.
From the colonial city of Bogota to the towering Andes mountains and warm seas of the Caribbean, our hand-picked local tour leaders will share first-hand knowledge of Colombia on our small group tours.
Meander around piles of aromatic and brightly colored produce in the farmers' markets of Bogota and explore the streets of La Candelaria to uncover grand colonial architecture. Escape the city to sample local coffee from lush green plantations and meet local people busily tending to rows of crops extending up the mountainside. And, if you want to switch off and escape reality, complete your Colombia adventure with a relaxing stay in Tayrona National Park with its palm-fringed white sandy beaches and turquoise-blue waters.
