Colombia Holiday Ideas
Colombia’s Caribbean coastline stretches for around 1,600km. The star of the show is Tayrona, Colombia’s most celebrated National Park, situated at the confluence of mountain and ocean ecosystems. It’s a lush paradise of virgin rainforest, powdery beaches, and home to wildlife including jaguars. Tayrona National Park acts as a starting point for luxury treks to the ancient Ciudad Perdida (“Lost City”), a series of two hundred 9th-century mountainside structures that predate Machu Picchu by several centuries.
The Caribbean coast also plays host to the jewel of South America, the UNESCO-listed walled colonial city of Cartagena. This beautiful city of pastel-coloured Spanish buildings, cobbled streets and plazas, old churches and fortifications, is an essential stop on any luxury holiday in Colombia.
Capital Bogota showcases modern Colombia at it’s best. Fast-paced, exciting and cosmopolitan, Bogota has a world-class range of boutique and luxury hotels, designer stores and a buzzing nightlife, plus a burgeoning reputation as a top city for dining.
Colombia's Coffee Region is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a must-visit region for all coffee aficionados. The 'triangle' refers to the three regions of Caldas, Risaralda, and Quindio - the heartland of Colombia's coffee production. The area is defined by beautiful rolling landscapes, native rainforest, colourful haciendas and charming towns. Alongside private guided tours of the coffee farms, we can organise guided hikes, horseback riding, nature trails, birdwatching and white-water rafting.
