Luxury Vacations & Tours in Colombia

Why should you travel on a luxury vacation to Colombia with us?

Colombia has come a long way since its years of turmoil. Experience the passion of a culture as vivacious as the colors of Cartagena.

Keep it hush – but here’s one to watch. Colombia has emerged as a safe and captivating destination for those searching for culture, coffee and mountainous landscapes and jungle-fringed beaches. The spirit of salsa and the stories of inspiration told through graffiti-filled streets, riding with llaneros on horseback through the floodplains of a land less traveled and soaring above jaw dropping canyons. Our private guide Andreas and his close friends in Colombia are ready to open their doors and take you past the colonial towns and out to the places you never knew existed.

What to see and do in Colombia

As ever, if you can’t see your ideal trip here then we can still plan it for you.

AN INTRODUCTION TO COLOMBIA

A country once considered repellently ‘dangerous’, Colombia has not only emerged as a safe, but a remarkable and beautiful country – welcoming to visitors. Today, Narcos is just a TV series. You can breathe a sigh of relief. Set against its beautiful Andean backdrop – scattered with jungle-fringed beaches, vast grasslands, coffee plantations and colonial towns – Colombia’s equatorial position makes it a haven for biodiversity. Welcoming you with open arms, Colombians are eager to show you their country. They might even challenge you to a game of Tejo (the nation’s throwing sport).

TAKE A RUM TOUR

Tailor made tours in Colombia will take you to the places you never knew existed. Feel like royalty with a horse-drawn carriage tour down the cobbled alleys of Cartagena, or get your taste buds tingling with an exclusive rum tasting session before slipping on your salsa shoes and dance into the night. Travel to valleys where you’ll be the only person for miles, as these areas are only accessible via helicopter.

A TROPICAL PARADISE

Being the only South American country with both a Caribbean and Pacific coastline, Colombia is home to a plethora of tropical, jungle-washed beaches. After exploring Cartagena’s UNESCO inscribed Old Town and colonial buildings, ride the waves via speedboat to Caribbean paradise on the hidden Rosario Islands. Home to some of Colombia’s most diverse marine life, snorkel around the shallow waters or dive deep into the colorful coral reefs, before cruising ten minutes to the exquisite Las Islas Hotel.

The best of Colombia

The coffee triangle

Head straight to the source of that perfect cup.

Colombia produces some of the best coffee in the world. Plunge deep into the country’s coffee regions at boutique haciendas where you’ll ride on horseback through the aromatic coffee fields with the Andean views ahead. Embark on a private tour of our favorite organic coffee plantations, meeting those behind the cultivation process and unlocking the secrets behind the perfect cup of smooth Colombian coffee.

Medellín

Discover one of Latin America’s greatest success stories.

Medellín has transformed astoundingly in recent years. It’s hard to believe that this thriving creative hub of culture and gastronomy once endured such turbulent times. Discover the captivating history of Comuna 13 with our local guide, a neighborhood bursting with murals, street performers and laid back watering holes to enjoy the views of the valley below. Experience a private salsa class and taste your way through El Poblado during a tantalising food tour, before testing out your new dance moves in Medellín’s pulsating nightlife.

Cartagena

No trip to Colombia would be complete without a visit to Cartagena.

The colorful, colonial streets within Walled City beckon you in with horse-drawn carriages, cobbled alleys and the vibrant Palenqueras selling fruit to travelers. Get your taste buds tingling with an exclusive rum tasting session or Caribbean cooking class before our guide unveils the history of the colonial mansions and plazas that reside here. Nestled on the coast, Cartagena is the perfect stepping-stone from which to jump on a speedboat to the hidden Rosario Islands for some barefoot luxury in one of our favorite island getaways, Las Islas Hotel.
