Colombia

This is Colombia! The land where coffee and football reign supreme, dancing and singing are a way of life, and there's no such thing as a night that's too late. Needless to say, Colombia is a TruTravels favourite and one of the original motivations for us heading across the ocean and expanding to Latin America. This electric country came out of a notorious past and has blossomed into one of the top destinations in Latin America today. Kick-off your trip with a tour of Communa 13 in Medellin, a notorious neighbourhood which has been transformed into one of the most extensive street art galleries in the world. From here get a jeep through the jungles of Minca, get your surf and beach time in at one of the nicest beach hostels you've ever seen, and top it off with a trip to a private island in the Caribbean for a couple nights.
