Colombia is now on the map when it comes to tailor made tours in South America. While there are not a huge array of luxury travel options, the fantastic country itself makes up it. As tourism starts to boom in Colombia, there are an increasingly large number of upmarket luxury hotels being developed.
Luxury & Tailormade Tours Suggestions
A tailormade tour designed by a specialist tour operator will see you picked up from airports, transferred to upmarket hotels and tours and excursions booked for you in advance. A typical tailormade tour itinerary of Colombia will see you fly into the capital city Bogota for a couple of nights, where you can enjoy fine restaurants and explore the old quarter. After seeing Bogota, you might consider booked a 2 or 3 night package to Villa de Leiva, a beautiful old colonial town 4 hours overland travel north of Bogota that has a range of lovely colonial hotels. The Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá is en route to Villa de Leiva and should not be missed.
After a tour of Villa de Leiva you can return overland to Bogota to catch an onward evening flight to a range of other suitably upmarket travel destinations in Colombia. The colonial city of Cartagena should not be missed and has many beautiful luxury colonial hotels, such as the Santa Clara Hotel. Other destinations commonly included in tailor made tours of Colombia include the Coffee Country, which has various luxurious haciendas; Amazon rainforest tours and jungle lodges near Leticia; beach resorts on the Carribean Islands of San Andres and Providencia, or the tranquil Rosario Islands near Cartagena or the dramatic Park Tayrona, a few hours overland from Cartagena.
