Bogotá, Colombia
Colombia is a country with rich history and stunning natural beauty. In Bogota,
you will be fascinated by two contrasting examples of each: visit El Museo Del
Oro to view its vast collection of pre-Colombian gold, and walk through La
Candelaria, one of its most historic and traditional neighborhoods, to visit
Museo de Antioquia and Universidad Nacional de Colombia.

Medellín, Colombia
Once you land in Medellin, make your way to Parque Arvi (Arvi Park). It is easy
to find using public transport. It is a beautiful park with lots of cafes and
restaurants. After that, I recommend visiting one of Medellin’s many museums,
which cover topics ranging from art to history and culture. If you enjoy hiking,
don’t miss El Peñol.

Salento, Colombia
Known as an off-the-beaten-path destination with rich culture and vibrant
heritage, Salento is perfect for those who love adventurous activities. It’s
also one of few places where you can spot wild animals roaming around freely.
The little town with narrow streets is surrounded by forests, waterfalls and
lush plantations. Hike to Caledonia Waterfall to see all kinds of bird species!
Or go horseback riding through forests on trekking tours.

Santa Marta, Colombia
Located at one end of Parque Tayrona, Santa Marta’s Old Town is a jumble of
colorful buildings that date back to Spanish colonial times. The city’s bohemian
district is called Barrio de Getsemani—getsemani means joyful in Kogi language.
There are two beaches here: one on Cabo San Juan and Playon Chico.

Cartagena, Colombia
Home to a colorful walled old city and a vibrant nightlife, Cartagena is an
especially popular destination for young travelers. Many hostels lie within
walking distance from historic attractions, such as San Felipe Castle, which
dates back to 1533. In-the-know backpackers head to Calle del Reloj for
inexpensive meals served on paper plates by enterprising locals. After dinner,
take a stroll through Plaza de los Coches and marvel at its full roster of
horse-drawn carriages.
