Day 1 Day 1: Hola Colombia!
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 1: Hola Colombia!

Bienvenido a Medellin, the city of eternal spring. Arrive at any time (we can help recommend flights) and we’ll be at the airport ready to take you back to your hotel. Unpack, relax, settle-in and then why not go for a wander to explore your new exotic surroundings. In the evening we’ll meet for a welcome introduction and then enjoy a group dinner so you can get to know better your fellow travellers.
Day 2 Day 2: Mezmerizing Medellin
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 2: Mezmerizing Medellin

Time to get up close and personal to the sizzling urban sprawl that is Medellin. We’ll catch the city’s modern metro system and do a whistle-stop tour of ‘El Centro’ before stopping for a hearty lunch at one of Medellin’s most historical restaurants. Afterwards, you’ll visit Comuna 13 to witness first-hand the impressive social transformation taking place in the city’s most notoriously dangerous zone – it’s humbling, inspiring and fascinating all rolled into one!
Day 3 Day 3: Colorful Guatape
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 3: Colorful Guatape

Today we’ll head to the nearby town of Guatape – the most colorful pueblo in Colombia. In the morning we’ll climb the 765 steps to the top of La Piedra, a huge monolithic rock providing jaw-dropping panoramic views over the utterly spectacular Guatape reservoir. The afternoon is then free for you to explore, whether that’s enjoying a scenic boat ride, doing water sports, or simply wandering the quirky town’s vibrant streets.
Day 4 Day 4: Free Day
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 4: Free Day

Today is all yours to explore Medellin at your own pace. You could take the metrocable out of the city to visit the nature reserve of Parque Arvi (with epic views en route). Or you could go to the museum ‘Casa de La Memoria’ to learn more about the victims of Colombia’s 50-year armed conflict. Or for more adrenalin filled action there’s the option to paraglide in the surrounding mountains. In the evening we’ll regroup to enjoy a fun and energetic Colombian Salsa lesson.
Day 5 Day 5: Beautiful Jardin
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 5: Beautiful Jardin

Time to make the journey to the rural Antioquian town of Jardin to experience local ‘Paisa’ culture at its most authentic – you may feel like you’ve stepped back in time. After the scenic bus ride from Medellin you will check into our quaint hotel before spending the afternoon visiting a local coffee finca. Here you’ll enjoy a home cooked lunch, witness the coffee making process, learn about life as a coffee farmer and taste some of the freshest coffee in your life!
Day 6 Day 6: Hike The Andes
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 6: Hike The Andes

Today is all about getting outdoors, getting active and reconnecting with nature! You’ll spend the morning hiking the lush Andes mountains surrounding Jardin, stopping off to enjoy the plentiful waterfalls and breathtaking scenery along the way. Then take the afternoon at your leisure: horse-riding, mountain biking, hangliding, or simply soaking up the peace and tranquility of the charismatic pueblo. In the evening we’ll share a group meal in the town’s colorful central plaza.
Day 7 Day 7: La Rumba
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 7: La Rumba

It’s time to head back for one last night in the buzzing city of Medellin. Along the way we’ll stop off for some lunch and a game of Tejo, which let’s just say involves beer, gunpowder and a ridiculous amount of laughter. Later in the evening you’ll go to our personal favourite restaurant in the city and afterwards it’s time to sample the pulsating nightlife – la rumba – in its full weekend glory. Tonight would be a perfect time to test out those new found Salsa moves!
Day 8 Day 8: Charming Cartagena
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 8: Charming Cartagena

It’s time to say adios to seductive Medellin, but don’t worry, you’re only getting started! Following a short 1-hour flight, you’ll swap the sweeping Andes mountains for the sparkling Caribbean coast. After checking in to the hotel, the afternoon is yours to explore the utterly charming Cartagena at your leisure. In the evening we’ll enjoy a very unique (and socially impactful) dining experience in Cartagena’s old town.
Day 9 Day 9: Tropical Island Hopping
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 9: Tropical Island Hopping

Today we’re hiring our very own private speedboat and setting off for some island-hopping around the very tropical Rosario Islands. We’ll swim, snorkel, sunbathe, enjoy the freshest seafood lunch and bask in the pristine beaches and crystal clear sea. Just make sure you save some of your energy for later. In the evening we have Champeta (Afro-Caribbean) dance class and afterwards you may want to hit up the local bar scene to try out your new moves.
Day 10 Day 10: Exploring Cartagena
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 10: Exploring Cartagena

Free day! You could head out of town to the nearby Bazurto market or Palenque village to get a better perspective of real life Colombia. If mud baths are your thing, you could venture out to the Totum mud volcano. Or, simply relax by the pool with a cocktail and take in the coastal view from above. Later, we’ll regroup over a spot of rum tasting and then it’s time for a chiva rumbera (a uniquely Colombian experience which involves a bus, live music, a dancefloor, and even more rum)!
Day 11 Day 11: Chill Day
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 11: Chill Day

Time to say goodbye to Cartagena and make the 4-hour bus journey towards Parque Nacional Tayrona (it’s a great opportunity to catch up on sleep after a few late nights). Our hotel is located in the most gorgeous, tranquil, setting just outside the park amidst the lush Colombian jungle. Upon arrival it’s all about relaxation. You can enjoy the pool, outdoor jacuzzi, sauna, steam room – and if that’s not quite enough – we’ve also hooked you up with a massage.
Day 12 Day 12: A Day In Paradise
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 12: A Day In Paradise

We can’t think of many better feelings than waking up knowing you’re going to spend the day inside the exotic, otherworldly Tayrona national park. It’s epic! We’ll make our way to the postcard-worthy beach of Cabo San Juan by hiking through dense Colombian rainforests and along rugged coastal paths to spend a few hours basking by the sun-drenched shores (there’s also the option of the much tougher jungle hike which passes through “Pueblito” – a hidden indigenous village).
Day 13 Day 13: Colombia’S Bustling Capital
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 13: Colombia’S Bustling Capital

It’s time for a change of scene, so we’ll make our way to the Santa Marta airport for the short (1 hour) flight to Colombia’s bustling capital, Bogota.After checking into the hotel, we’ll make our way to Monserrate mountain where we’ll ride the metrocable to the top to take in the utterly spectacular panoramic views over the gigantic Bogota. We’ll then stroll towards the charming old town – La Candelaria – to feel first-hand the vibe of Colombia’s cool capital.
Day 14 Day 14: Zipaquira
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 14: Zipaquira

Today, we’ll sample Colombian life outside the urban sprawl by heading to the neighboring and much smaller town of Zipaquira – famous locally for its hugely impressive underground salt cathedral. Trust us; this is WAY cooler than it sounds! We’ll spend a relaxing day first visiting the cathedral and then exploring the town. For our last evening in Colombia we’ll share a group dinner in a legendary (and lively) Bogota restaurant full of music, color and awesome food.
Day 15 Day 15: Adios Amigos
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 15: Adios Amigos

All good things must come to an end, and the time has come to say goodbye. But think of all the incredible things you’ve done. You’ve danced salsa, & champeta, drank rum, hiked jungles, swam pristine oceans, felt the buzz of mega cities, discovered hidden pueblos, mingled with locals, eat awesome food, learned about Colombia’s painful past and shared all of this with some amazing people along the way. After one final breakfast, we’ll take you to the airport in Bogota to begin your journey home.
