Colombia

There’s something special about Colombia that keeps luring travellers back – and it’s not just the coffee! From the snow-capped peaks of the Andes to the idyllic Caribbean beaches, Colombia is one of the most naturally diverse countries in South America. If you want to experience all that this beautiful country has to offer, here are some of its highlights:

The Amazon jungle: The Amazon rainforest covers over half of Colombia and is one of the most biodiverse areas on Earth. If you’re looking for an adventure, try exploring the jungle by boat or hiking through its canopied pathways.

The Andes: These imposing mountains run up the spine of Colombia and offer some of the best hiking and climbing in South America. Whether you’re looking for a challenging summit or a relaxing walk through the valleys, the Andes have something for everyone.

The Caribbean coast: Colombia’s Caribbean coastline is world-famous for its turquoise waters, white sand beaches, and laidback vibe. If you’re looking to relax on a tropical beach, this is the place to do it.

The coffee region: No trip to Colombia is complete without a visit to the coffee region. This picturesque area is home to rolling green hills, quaint villages, and of course, some of the best coffee in the world.
