Private Immersive Cultural Tour in Cartagena with Day Trips

I very much enjoyed my time in Cartagena, Columbia, South America in 2022. I was told that the month of December afforded us mildness in regard to the usual warmer temperatures of other months. My Accommodations were comfortable and safe, and we had a magnificent hostess. Bernell's planning was high quality and I did not have to do anything except arrive there. I even had money exchanged before leaving the USA. One less detail for her to have to take care of upon my arrival. We, Bernell and I, made new friends in Cartagena and we are excited to be working with the dance leaders we met to host a Dancing in the Street joint project in the future. More details to come. It is my sincere hope that you all will accept her next invitation to "meet her" in a foreign or unique location, or allow her to plan a travel excursion for your family so you too can experience "travel like a local" -- I guarantee you will be delighted that you did.

Private Service I Best-Selling Journey: One Week in Bogotá, Medellín & Cartagena — Domestic Flights Included

We had a wonderful trip to Colombia, visiting Bogota, Medellin and Cartagena. I would particularly express appreciation to the Colombian Trip, which arranged the private tour. Although we never met Andrea, the Tour Manager who worked with us, she was enormously helpful, rearranging dates when our flights were cancelled twice, coordinating with our guides when we had problems and staying in constant contact with us. She was like our Guardian Angel, helping us from afar. We have been on many tours and NEVER had a manager who was as helpful to us. We have a 150% RECOMMENDATION for Colombian Trip and will encourage our friends to visit Colombia and to use the company.

It was an amazing trip which showed very well the diversity of Colombian landscapes, climates, nature, cities, food, culture and people. Hotels were very good and in the center of the cities. Especially the GHL in Cartagena was great to explore the numerous restaurants and bars of Getsmani in the evening. The transport to the airport and to the hotel worked well. You get your flight ticket via Email one day before. If not just drop them a short message and you will receive them within a few minutes. The drivers will contact you via whatsapp few hours before or when you arrived at the airport. I booked the tour with an English speaking guide, because I don’t speak Spanish. It was a good choice and the English of the guides was very good. The tours were good, you don’t have to stand in the lines like normal tourists and in the most touristic places you get there earlier than the big groups. So you can enjoy the places, e.g. El Peñol rock, not so crowded at the beginning. The time schedule is also relative flexibel. You have enough time to visit the attractions and there is also time to go shopping or having e.g. a very good Colombian coffee without hurry or stopping at a ATM. The included free snacks and lunch during day were always delicious and local. The advantage of a private tour is definitely that you can ask everything and you get much more information of culture, daily life, politics and so on cause you spend a lot of time with the guide. The only big con for me was the very high price if you are travelling alone and not in groups of 2+.

Overall my tour is good. Local guides and drivers from Bogota and Pereira are super nice. Itinerary of Cartagena was not well organized it’s a bit rush. The Rosario Island’s trip was well organized.

We loved the entire Trek to the Lost City in Colombia, the range of sites, climates, topography, landscape and altitudes was immensely rewarding. The program was intense but not overly. Always something of interest, but with enough down-time. Very well planned, and the opportunity to see quite a lot of famous places on the western site in Colombia. Definitely we recommend you guys to everyone we know. I will contact you again if we decide to travel back to South America next year.

First Two guides were excellent and made the trip very informative and fun.
My customers had such a wonderful experience on their trip around Colombia. They were able to know about history, architecture, traditional food, nature and so much more. They had local experiences and they enjoyed both of the cities and the natural destinations like beautiful beaches as well. From beginning to end they felt safe and comfortable and all the staff made sure they had a smooth experience moving from one city to the other. They were happy and grateful for their trip. Thank you!

The 8 Best Colombia Tours For Unforgettable Adventures That Are Achievable & Affordable!

The 8 Best Colombia Tours For Unforgettable Adventures That Are Achievable & Affordable!

Expert travel storyteller Jordan Adkins, founder of InspiredByMaps.com, brings a decade of adventures across 101 countries and 450+ UNESCO sites into rich, off-the-beaten-path narratives, melding ecological expertise with genuine, seasoned travel insights. His full bio can be found here.

Colombia is a case of “don’t believe everything in the news.” While it had its fair share of internal strife and the legacy of one Pablo Escobar, Colombia had made the more notorious parts safer for visitors to see past its former dodgy reputation. Who knew a Disney movie could do that?

But of course, if Rome was not built in a day, so was Colombia’s reinvention of its less palatable reputation. In Medellin, where Escobar and turf wars and gangs once ruled, murals and street art now welcome tourists excited to ride the Metrocable to see what’s beneath their feet. And that took decades to do.

Because of the stories that made their way to international media, few visitors realize Colombia has not one but two coasts facing two bodies of water: the Caribbean Sea to the north and the vast Pacific Ocean to the west, with only the thin strip of Panama in between. Even better, the more accessible island chains that are as idyllic as their Caribbean counterparts are less than two hours boat ride from Cartagena, another of Colombia’s tourism treasures.

In the colonial past, Colombia’s exports were gold and silver. Precious metals mined elsewhere in South America made their way to Cartagena to be stored and later shipped to Mother Spain. The Spanish built a fort to stave off pirate attacks.

And that’s not counting the metals the indigenous peoples once possessed. Whatever remains of their treasures is still enormous – about a museum’s worth. Visit the Museo del Oro in Bogota, and the thousands of gold artifacts there – breastplates, funerary masks, jewelry – will mesmerize.

No visit to Colombia would be complete without sampling its Arabica or Colombiana. If you want to get to the source, let the operators handle the logistics to connect you from anywhere in Colombia to Salento, the country’s coffee cradle. Several ‘estancias’ here offer farm tours, coffee tastings, and even a chance to work up a sweat on one of the nearby jungle trails.

best tour operators in Colombia - best Colombia tour package - best tours in Colombia - best tour companies in Colombia - best Colombia tours

Like most countries in South America, public transport here, especially servicing the countryside, can get cramped and often leave only when full. Unless you want to share a ‘colectivo’ (minivan) seat with a chicken, you may want to take advantage of the more comfortable and faster transport options arranged by tour operators to get you from A to B fast and with as little drama as possible.

(Especially when you have less than a week to spare, public buses may take up to 10 hours to connect Medellin to Bogota, an experience you may have to endure rather than enjoy).

Things on the political front seem quieter now, but you’d still want to ensure your safety. The benefit of working with group tour operators instead of going at it independently is that you have a safety net in case things go south. You have someone to worry about how to keep you safe while you figure out how to have the time of your life.

Choose one of the tours below, and see where else it will take you.

What the Experience is Like

Arrive in Medellin and transfer to your hotel. Breathe in the lush landscape and the surrounding mountains on your way to the hotel.

From Medellin, fly to Cartagena, once the Spanish fortress where gold was shipped from the New World to Spain. Marvel at its stone rampart, which repulsed many pirate attacks, its colonial houses lining narrow cobbled stone streets, its basilica and monastery, and the castle of San Felipe de Barajas.
