What people love about Bogota to Cartagena Tours
- Contrasts of Colombia
Another exceptional holiday in a country that was fascinating to see before tourism spoils it too much. Very well organised, a very good tour leader and we did not have a single complaint.
- Journeys: Explore Colombia National Geographic Journeys
Really good tour! Accommodation was 3 to 4 star level...no issues overall. Breakfast always included..some included meals they were very delicious. Tour was physical..you are walking quite a bit. The tour of wax palms in Salento area you will climb uphill quite a bit. You also dodge horse poop on trail. On way back you will be taxed on the steep hill going down. Make sure you use sunscreen! Overall mix of included tours and options at your own cost. Internal flights to cut down on bus driving.
- Private Service I Journey Through Colombia's Highlights: Bogotá, The Coffee Region, Medellín & Cartagena — Domestic Flights Included
The trip was fabulous. the guide was superb. He has excellent knowledge of the local birds and was happy and helpful throughout despite being ill. The most memorable part was staying in Tatama. An excellent place. Good food and great hospitality.
