There’s a reason why Cartagena is one of the most popular cities in Colombia. Whether it’s the impressive architecture of the castles, rich history portrayed around the city, or colorful buildings that immediately energize you, there’s always something to find that will take your breath away.
Cartagena’s colonial charm provides treasures in every direction you walk. During the day, you can check out the ‘walled city’, stroll through Playa Blanca Beach on Baru Island, or visit a gold museum. Turn up the action at night by partying on a Chiva bus with live musicians and lots of dancing.
Have you heard of Bogota, Colombia? Bogota is a mountainous city decorated with dramatic landscapes and vibrant street art that reflects the city’s past and present. The city is known for its mouthwatering food, friendly people, and gorgeous scenery. It’s now a traveler’s dream come true offering great museums, beaches, and nightlife activities.
Feel the warm energy of the city when you walk around the main plaza of Bogota. Enjoy the funky shops and cafes in the historic quarter of La Candelaria. Watch the sunset at the top of the Monserrate Mountain. Take it all in and learn as much as you can about the city and the people around you.
Head to northern Colombia and go hiking in the Tayrona National Park in Santa Marta. Get your legs moving and your eyes mesmerized by the natural beauty of the park on the El Pueblito or the Nine Stones hiking trail. If you’re lucky, you might even see Jaguars and crocodiles but that’s a rare occurrence.
Rest your body at one of the most desirable sleeping spots in the park, the Hammock Hut, and watch the beauty of the sunrise and sunset over the tropical waters. Visit the white sand beaches of Cabo San Juan when you’re ready to experience more paradisiacal shorelines.
Medellin has transformed into a safer and more desirable tourist option and digital nomads are flocking to the city in herds to grab a piece of all that it has to offer. They are even enticing more travelers to go there through their captivating Instagram stories.
The weather is great, the music is energizing, and the shopping scene is convenient. If you visit Medellin, make sure you check out the parks, plazas, museums, botanical gardens, food, and walking tour to see how this city has evolved into one of the most fascinating cities in Colombia.
