FIXED DEPARTURE TOUR “ACTIVE & ADVENTURE” 2027

This 21-day journey combines some of Colombia’s most impressive natural and trekking regions into an extraordinary travel experience. Designed as an open small-group fixed departure, individual travelers, couples, or small groups can easily join on fixed travel dates. Routing from Bogotá through Villa de Leyva and the Coffee Region to the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta and the Caribbean coast in Cartagena, it blends spectacular landscapes with active adventures and a true sense of exploration.

Why this journey stands out: “Active & Adventure” is designed for guests who want to experience Colombia firsthand rather than just visit it. The focus is on movement, nature, and authentic encounters—from the high Andes to the Caribbean coast.

Highlights at a glance:

  • Trekking in four national parks: Iguaque, Los Nevados, Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, and Tayrona.

  • Varied active experiences: Excursions on foot, by bike, and by kayak.

  • Extraordinary landscape diversity: From high-altitude páramo ecosystems to tropical Caribbean forests.

  • Two iconic treks in one trip: The combination of Los Nevados National Park and the legendary Lost City Trek (Ciudad Perdida).

Itinerary overview: Bogotá – Villa de Leyva – Coffee Region – Trekking in Los Nevados National Park – Santa Marta – Ciudad Perdida Trek – Tayrona – Cartagena
