Itinerary
Arrive in Bogota and enjoy a comfortable transfer from the airport to your Bogota accommodation. The rest of the day is yours to spend at leisure.
Start your Colombian adventure by treating yourself to a culinary feast of local specialties! Try a tamale wrapped in banana leaves, nibble on arepas, and end on a sweet note with a serving of arroz con coco (coconut rice pudding).
After a hearty breakfast, embark on your city tour! You'll then have the rest of the afternoon at leisure.
Enjoy a stroll through one of the city's many (over 5,200) lush parks, or soak up some culture at a museum or two. In the evening, head to town for a taste of the city's vibrant nightlife.
Today embark on a full-day tour of Colombia's picturesque countryside. You'll see a breathtaking salt cathedral, a volcanic lake, and even Colombia's largest dairy store!
Fly to Cartagena this morning! Unwind at your next hotel, then spend the rest of the day exploring at your own pace.
Perhaps you'd like to head into the old town, where you can get lost in the dreamy cobblestone streets. Cartagena's coastal location means fresh seafood, and lots of it. Choose from one of the many restaurants and treat yourself to a freshly-caught bite.
Your day will start with a tour of the city's most iconic highlights. You'll then have the rest of the day to explore at leisure.
Cartagena is Colombia's culinary capital, so tonight, treat yourself to a meal worth celebrating. Make your way to the vibrant neighborhood of Centro, where you'll find the finest eateries and bars waiting to be experienced.
Enjoy one final transfer to the airport in accordance with your flight home.
