  • During our stay in Bogota, we’ll explore La Candelaria—the city’s Old Town—taking in the charming Colonial architecture as we stroll its bustling streets.
  • Our small group will have many opportunities to meet the warm and friendly people of Colombia throughout our adventure, as we visit them in local markets, village schools, and even enjoy a meal at a local family's home.
  • Just outside Santa Marta, on Colombia's Caribbean Coast, is Tayrona National Park, whose white-sand beaches, lush rain forests, and scenic mountainsides we'll explore on a guided tour.
  • While in Cartagena, we'll visit the Castillo de San Felipe—a massive Spanish Colonial fortress situated on a hilltop between Cartagena's Old Town and harbor, providing commanding panoramic views of the city.

Trip at a Glance

Small Groups: Never more than 10-16 travelers—guaranteed!

Discover the hidden riches of Colombia, a lustrous land whose incredible wealth inspired the myth of El Dorado—and whose borders are now open to travelers after decades of being closed off. While Spanish explorers searched in vain for Colombia's legendary "Lost City of Gold," when you journey here with OAT, you’ll witness a country in the midst of a cultural renaissance … and find that the real treasures of Colombia are all around you. On our comprehensive adventure, we’ll explore Colombia’s diverse landscape of towering mountains, pristine Caribbean beaches, and verdant rain forests, as well as its colonial gems: bustling Bogotá, seaside Santa Marta, and stylish Cartagena. Along the way, we’ll also meet the friendly and resilient Colombian people during a Home-Hosted Dinner, experiencing a vibrant blend of cultures that stretches back before the conquistadores.
