Andres Christian’s was an excellent tour leader. You can tell that you truly loves Colombia and enjoys sharing that with everyone. Some accommodations were better than others. Hotel in Medellin was fabulous but the hotel in Palomino did not offer hot water. This was unfortunately as we stayed there 2 evenings total. It would be great if Explore offered different hotel packages.
