Detailed Description



The Highlights of the Colombia Round Trip 2027

Discover Bogotá Actively

The journey begins in Bogotá, Colombia’s vibrant capital located at 2,600 meters above sea level. Instead of a traditional city tour, Bogotá is explored actively by bicycle.


Highlights include:

  • the historic La Candelaria district

  • Plaza Bolívar

  • the famous Gold Museum

  • the Botero Museum

  • impressive street art

  • and the traditional “Tejo” game with local snacks and beer


Today, Bogotá is considered one of the most exciting cycling cities in Latin America and offers the perfect introduction to the journey.



San Agustín – Colombia’s Mystical South

The adventure continues south to San Agustín, one of the country’s most culturally fascinating regions.


Here travelers experience:

  • authentic local markets

  • traditional farming culture

  • local cooking workshops

  • encounters with farming families

  • and breathtaking Andean landscapes


One of the major highlights is the visit to the Archaeological Park of San Agustín, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its mysterious stone statues and ceremonial sites.


Optional activities also include:

  • horseback riding tours

  • hiking

  • or rafting on the Magdalena River.



Tatacoa Desert – A Different Side of Colombia

The Tatacoa Desert is one of Colombia’s most extraordinary landscapes.

Between red canyons, gray rock formations, and giant cacti, the region offers an almost surreal atmosphere. Exploring the desert in small Tuk Tuks adds an especially authentic touch.


Many travelers are surprised by Colombia’s incredible landscape diversity — and the Tatacoa Desert represents this better than almost anywhere else.



Coffee Region & Cocora Valley

One of the highlights of any Colombia trip is the famous Coffee Cultural Landscape around Salento.


In the Cocora Valley, the group hikes among the tallest wax palms in the world, surrounded by green cloud forests and spectacular mountain scenery.


Of course, a traditional coffee experience is also included:

  • visit to a local coffee finca

  • insights into cultivation and roasting

  • tasting of Colombian highland coffee

  • encounters with local family-run farms



Tayrona National Park & Caribbean Coast

After the Andes, the tropical Caribbean coast awaits.

In Santa Marta, travelers experience the relaxed Caribbean atmosphere before continuing to the famous Tayrona National Park — one of the most spectacular natural areas in South America.


The hike leads:

  • through tropical rainforest

  • past wild Caribbean beaches

  • all the way to the stunning Cabo San Juan


With a bit of luck, monkeys, iguanas, or exotic birds can be spotted along the way.


Please note: Tayrona National Park may close during certain periods for spiritual and ecological reasons. In that case, the itinerary will include the Taironaka Nature Reserve instead, possibly including river tubing on the Don Diego River depending on water levels.



Cartagena & La Boquilla

At the end of the journey, Cartagena awaits — one of the most beautiful colonial cities in Latin America.


During an extensive city walk, travelers discover:

  • the historic old town

  • colonial architecture

  • local specialties

  • tropical fruits

  • and the creative Getsemaní district with its street art and music scene


Another special contrast is the excursion to La Boquilla: traditional wooden canoes glide through peaceful mangrove landscapes, revealing an authentic side of the Caribbean coast far away from classic tourism.
