The Lost City of Civdad Perdida
Discover how to travel differently in Colombia.
Hidden in Colombia’s vast jungles lies an enticing untouched secret. Swallowed by forest for 1,200 years and sprinkled with gold, jewels, and human sacrificial sites, the ruins are 650 years older than Machu Picchu but have only recently been accessed. Known as the Ciudad Perdida or the Lost City, this ancient site is therefore one of South America’s most remarkably concealed gems. Our experts can include this incredible highlight in your Colombia holidays from UK.

Gastronomy
Lesser know that the cuisine of neighbours Brazil and Argentina, but full of rich flavours, home grown ingredients and incredible combinations, Colombian food is as diverse as it is dazzling. The growing foodie scene in Colombia is particularly exciting and locals are therefore rightly proud of their famous dishes. Try the national dish Bandeja Paisa, a carnivores dream Fritanga, a bowl of sancocho, try snacking Arepas, and of course South America favourite; Empanadas, which in Colombia have a unique twist… deep fried. Be sure to try some of this delicious food on your luxury holiday to Colombia.

Tayrona National Park
One of the best things to do in Colombia. Where wildlife meets paradise. 35 miles of stunning palm fringed beaches is a perfect way to relax then cool off with a swim. For those who can’t sit still, trek in the incredible biodiverse National Park along the numerous walking trails. Covered by virgin tropical forest the park is inhabited by over 100 species of mammals, 200 species of birds and 50 species of reptiles. A perfect end to your tailor made eco holiday to Colombia.
