Trip Highlights
Why you'll love this trip
- •
Lace up your boots and hike to the Marinka Waterfalls. Spend some time swimming in the clear waters at the base of one of the waterfalls, then join a local guide through the charming streets of Minca.

Explore Rio Claro – a nature reserve known for its clear rivers, tropical rainforest terrain and waterfalls. Swim in the river, hike along the Ecological Trail and maybe zigzag downstream along the canyon walls on a zipline.

Play a game of tejo with the locals – this is Colombia's national sport and a popular pastime in Bogota (think bocce with gunpowder).

Explore Barranquilla on two wheels. Visit the not-for-profit factory, cycle along the city’s waterfront promenade and see the statue of Shakira.
