ITINERARY INSPIRATION
AN ALLURING ADVENTURE
One of the most alluring destinations in Latin America, a holiday to Colombia is nothing short of an adventure. Discover sizzling modern cities, marvellous beaches, exotic wildlife and a rich cultural heritage.
You could find yourself strolling about the cobbled downtown of La Candelaria, taking in grand Spanish mansions and atmospheric old churches. You could admire the beautiful artistry on display in the Gold Museum, or observe the fading gentility of Mompox on the Magdelena River. Not forgetting the fairy tale port of Cartagena, built from the riches plundered by the Spanish and protected by seemingly impenetrable walls.
Venture further afield and you’ll uncover traditional Indian villages in the Sierra Nevada, jungle-cloaked beaches at Tayrona and monumental stone statues in the San Agustin Archaeological Park. Unmissable for coffee lovers is the Zona Cafetera, where you can stay in a working coffee farm and get a glimpse into the traditional Colombian way of life.
There are also astounding desert landscapes, Easter parades in Bogota, and carnivals in Barranquilla. Vivacious clubs, an unspoiled region of the Amazonian rainforest, and not one but two tantalising coastlines. Colombia is a country that immediately captures the attention. What’s more, Colombia is also centrally located between Ecuador, Venezuela, Brazil, and Peru. Whether you want to spend your days exploring, hiking, scuba diving or simply dozing in a hammock on a white-sanded beach, our experts will tailor your Colombian adventure to fit you perfectly.

TRUSTED BY FELLOW TRAVELLERS
Planning my first solo trip felt like a big step, but The Ultimate Travel Company made it easy from the outset. I reached out over a year in advance, and Rob Kent quickly put together a thoughtful itinerary based on exactly what I was looking for, securing great flights and always being available to talk things through. Everything ran smoothly and I felt looked after every step of the way. The accommodation in Japan, Fiji and Tahiti was excellent and the experiences unforgettable.
