Complete Colombia: Coastal Caribbean & Inland Hidden Gems
We get it, choosing the right itinerary for a country as diverse as Colombia is tough. But we’ve got you covered with this 17-day whirlwind adventure that ticks all the boxes. From coastal Cartagena to vibrant Bogotá, explore the best of both worlds: iconic highlights and hidden gems. Trek the jungle trails of Tayrona National Park, dive into waterfall plunge pools in Minca, soak in the chill vibes of Palomino, and uncover the lesser-known hot springs of Santa Rosa de Cabal. With adventures at every turn and plenty of time to soak in the culture, you’ll come home with stories — and a deeper connection to Colombia — that’ll last a lifetime.
Highlights
Enjoy laid-back coastal vibes with a beach bonfire in Palomino, Explore the jungle trails and biodiversity of Tayrona National Park with a local guide, Visit Comuna 13 in Medellín and witness the area’s reinvention and a G Adventures-supported community initiative there, Visit and climb up El Peñol Rock in Guatapé, Relax and soak in the warm soothing thermal waters in Santa Rosa de Cabal
Accomodation
A variety of styles of hotels/hostels are used on this trip. In many instances, they might not be like what you are used to back home as service and efficiency can vary. Some nights on this tour will be multi-share. This may involve 4-6 group members sharing a room. The majority of accommodation will have shared bathroom facilities. Where we use multi-share hostels, rooming requests of any kind cannot be taken. For private accommodation please see tours in our Classic Travel Style. Please note that hot water shortages and power outages can be fairly common in Ecuador (even in upgraded hotels and private homes). We appreciate your patience and understanding that these occurrences are outside of our control.
Group Leader
All G Adventures group trips are accompanied by one of our Chief Experience Officers (CEOs), a G Adventures representative, or an expedition team. The aim of the group leader is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. They will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting- we think it's the best of both worlds.
