1. Trekking to Ciudad Pérdida:

To get to Ciudad Pérdida you must make a four-day hike, for many the most spectacular in South America. It is a challenge that will take you to the home of the ancient Tayrona culture, to learn about their ancestral wisdom.

2. Dawn dancing anywhere in Colombia is something you can't miss:

It doesn't matter where you are, if you dance salsa, vallenato, cumbia or joropo in the Eastern Plains. The important thing is to live a night of rhythm and flavor surrounded by Colombians who will be happy to teach you a few steps.

3. Overflight in Chiribiquete:

One of the archaeological wonders of the world, it was recently included in the list of World Heritage Sites. To visit it, you must make an overflight, it is the only way to get a little closer to this magical place, one of the most biodiverse places in the world. This place is the heart of the Colombian Amazon. It is located between the departments of Caquetá and Guaviare.

4. Sleep in a coffee farm and learn all about COFFEE:

Sleeping there means being able to share with the coffee growers and learn firsthand how they plant, cultivate and grind, it is a process that if you do it, you will never forget. Walking through the crops, through the Colombian mountains, feeling the smell of nature, is undoubtedly a MUST DO.

5. Sailing the Amazon River, accompanied by pink dolphins?

Yes, navigating the longest and most abundant river in the world and seeing pink dolphins that can only be seen in this little piece of the world is worth the risk of trying to see them.

6. Walk along the banks of one of the most beautiful rivers in the world:

Only in Colombia can you see a river of five colors, in Caño Cristales to be exact. It was for many years unvisited due to the armed conflict, it is located in the Serrania de la Macarena. You can't swim in it, so as not to damage the plants that give the river its magic, but just seeing it will be enough.

7. A dive in a little piece of the Colombian sea:

See the reefs of the Caribbean Sea in Colombia, its colors, its temperature. You can dive in San Andres and Providencia, in Santa Marta or Cartagena. You can also travel to the Pacific and dive in Nuquí, or visit the gorgona island and let yourself fall in love with these places.

8. Safari in search of the anaconda:

What? does it exist? Yes, in Colombia we have safaris in the Orinoco region. Endless plains that merge with the Amazon. In a 4 x 4 we will cross the Colombian Africa, in the search of this animal, you will see babillas, tapirs, deer, anteaters and if you are lucky you will see a jaguar, one of the big South American felines.
