Meet Milton – Our Translator and Voice of Colombian Culture

Today we’d like to introduce you to Milton Rivera Díaz, a proud member of our Chaska Tours family. Originally from Pitalito, Huila, born in the small rural community of Betania. A proud young farmer at heart, Milton has always felt deeply connected to the land, to his roots, and to the magic found in every corner of Colombia. From an early age, he developed a profound love for nature and a desire to share the beauty of his homeland with the world.

Eight years ago, Milton began his journey with Chaska Tours as a translator — a role that allowed him to grow both personally and professionally. Through this experience, he discovered not only a passion for travel but also the joy of creating meaningful connections between cultures.

Over time, his work has taken him far beyond Colombia’s borders. Milton has guided and translated in countries such as Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay, gaining invaluable insights into tourism and Latin American culture. These journeys, he says, have deepened his appreciation for the diversity and shared spirit that unite people across the continent.

Fluent in English, Milton loves connecting with travelers from around the world and showing them the true essence of Colombia — its diversity, authenticity, and human warmth.

Today, he lives in San Agustín, a place he lovingly calls his second home. There, he leads an English education project that seeks to transform the lives of children, youth, and adults through learning and cultural exchange.

Milton feels proud and grateful to be part of the Chaska Tours family, a company that shares his passion for nature, culture, and the people of Colombia. 🌎✨
