Colombia Culture & Walking Quest
Embark on a journey through regions of Colombia known for their rich culture and traditions. Beginning in Bogotá, your trip begins with a day dedicated to discovering local food, art and history.
After exploring the capital, you’ll travel north, into the Andes and its “pueblos”, or towns, where you’ll meet the locals and enjoy authentic, hands-on cultural experiences. Your next destination, Medellín, is the country’s most modern city, and a lovely contrast to your next destination: Colombia’s southern coffee region and UNESCO World Heritage Site. This area boasts a longstanding tradition in coffee cultivation and, as a result, some of the world’s best coffee.
Last, but definitely not least, you’ll end your journey in the breathtaking coastal city of Cartagena.
