Colombia

While the world is still getting to know modern Colombia and discovering it as a safe, politically stable tourist destination, the country abounds with opportunities for cultural exploration and adventure.

Travelers are increasingly beginning to realize Colombia’s potential as an adventure tour destination, seeing what intrepid travelers have known for years. The largest cities are well-prepared for visitors with great development and infrastructure already in place. In fact, Bogota could rival many European cities for its cultural capital, boasting countless museums and art galleries that have earned international accolades.

However, Colombia’s smaller, picturesque rural towns are equally worth visiting, especially in the plantation region surrounding Cali. There, you’ll discover deeply rooted traditions and rich culture along with some of South America’s most welcoming people. As you explore, you’ll also find that from the cities to the countryside, Colombians truly love their bicycles. Cycling is not only a practical mode of transport but it is also a way of life in many parts. Adventure travel, especially a cycling trip, is the ultimate active cultural adventure to explore these stunning destinations in all their beauty.
