Head into the serene highlands of Colombia's famed coffee region on a nine-day adventure where you’ll encounter the stories, traditions and culture embedded in this region’s lush valleys and historic cities. Learn how to roast the perfect blend during a tour of a working coffee plantation, stroll through Bogota’s local food market, try the fresh, local seafood and maybe even try out a traditional Colombian sport in Salento. If you’re still out and about once the sun goes down, why not also explore the nightlife of Medellin (your leader has all the best spots). Then, trade the country's lush interior for its coastal spoils and wind the adventure up in oh-so-romantic Cartagena – a UNESCO World Heritage site with much to explore.
