Colombia is quintessential Latin America. This is a land of lush coffee plantations, charming colonial cities and traditional family haciendas, all framed by a pristine Caribbean coastline. Travelling north from the country’s capital, this journey also includes La Zona Cafetera and majestic Cartagena. Time will be spent exploring Bogota – the Gold Museum and La Candelaria are highlights – and there will also be a two night stay in 16th century Villa de Leyva with its colonial buildings and famous cobbled square. Following three memorable days in the country’s beautiful coffee growing region, end in Cartagena which is considered one of the continent’s most beautiful cities.
