Colombia is a country rich in extraordinary culture, history, and adventure. 

The Tayrona and Muisca tribes from the pre-Columbian era have left their indelible mark and a certain mystique on modern Colombia. Plazas and entire cities stand where these tribes first lived. Treasures of weathered architecture preserved winding alleyways, and archaeological finds take visitors back in time in cobblestoned villages. Old churches, factory buildings, and estate homes are given new life in art museums and amusement parks

Trek through Colombia’s national parks and bio reserves, scuba dive the coral reefs or study the hundreds of orchid species. From centers of learning science and nature, zoos, unusual cathedrals to sporting venues and Pueblito ruins, there are leisurely pursuits for everyone.

Explore Colombia like Marco Polo or Columbus and maybe find your own El Dorado. You’ll have stories to tell long after you leave.
