Colombia 🇨🇴
With soaring Andean summits 🏔️ and cobbled colonial towns 🏘️, Colombia boasts all of South America’s lore and more. Come here to swap the noise of the cities for the reverent silence of nature 🌳.
Parque Nacional Natural El Cocuy 🥾 is one of South America’s most grand hiking trails, and for good reason. High season runs from December through February ❄️, Cartagena shines through April ☀️, and the best whale watching 🐋 is from July to October on the Pacific coast 🌊.
Travel costs in Colombia can range from less than fifty thousand Colombian pesos a day if you enjoy a dorm bed and supermarkets to over two hundred thousand Colombian pesos a day for a top-end hotel and a multi-course meal. 🏨🍽️ Buses are the main way to get around Colombia, though air travel has become more accessible ✈️ and cars are useful for traveling at your own pace. 🚗 Towering Andean peaks ⛰️, Caribbean coastal sands 🏖️, enigmatic Amazon jungle 🌳, and cinematic cobblestone villages 🏘️ make Colombia an adventurous and cute portrait of South America in miniature, with a population focused on hospitality. 🤗
