The experience was simply unforgettable!” Maria 6-Star Review Sandy R. (USA), May 2024 We were three experienced couples who chose Chaska Tours from San Agustín for our 12-day trip to Colombia in April 2024. It was our first time visiting the country. When comparing travel agencies, Chaska’s communication, expertise, honesty, and efficiency stood out immediately. It proved to be an excellent choice. From planning to execution to real-time support during the trip, our trip planner was—by far—the best travel partner we have had in three decades of extensive travel. During the planning phase, he offered the best value for money among all the agencies we contacted, stayed fully within budget, and provided excellent itinerary recommendations. His honesty, cost awareness, and ability to tailor the trip to our needs were so impressive that after our first conversations, I felt completely comfortable letting him design the full package—knowing he clearly had our best interests at heart. His depth of knowledge and advice became even more evident once we were actually on the journey. We do not speak Spanish. Whether it was organizing all domestic flights and seat assignments, providing boarding passes in real time, handling luggage variations, maintaining daily communication with our group and guides, dealing with changes or emergencies, or ensuring suitable accommodations through direct coordination with each hotel’s front desk—our agent was always available, responsive, and in good spirits. His attention to detail was remarkable and exceeded every expectation. The experiences, guides, and schedules he arranged were outstanding. Even our guides mentioned that what our travel planner organized for us went far beyond the standard offerings usually provided by larger agencies. They consistently and sincerely praised the trip planning—truly the highest compliment coming from them. Whether it was the guide in Medellín, the experiences in Salento and the Cocora Valley, the visit to Cartagena, or the exceptional activities in Bogotá (especially the private tasting menu and the fruit market tour, both led by a dedicated two-person team that exceeded all expectations)—he truly made this journey unforgettable. There is no shortage of agencies offering trips to Colombia, some of them quite large. My advice: don’t waste time, energy, or money. Skip the comparison lists and the micromanagement—Chaska Tours is an outstanding choice. You will not be disappointed.
