This is my third tour, my best tour, and my favorite tour. My girlfriend and I have always wanted to go to South America, and G Adventures made sure I could maximize my limited time off!
Also- Rafa made the 10/10 experience a 100/10 experience.
Colombia is a true land of contrasts which the extensive itinerary brings out well. Good accommodation. Gustavo was an excellent guide. Go before it becomes too touristy!
A fantastic tour to experience a good slice of Columbia! Especially good if this is your first time in Colombia, with a great mix of city and beach, with lots of included activities that you would want to do. Rafael was one of the best CEOs we have had on our many G Adventures tours.
This was my first G adventure. I did not know what to expect but I was very happy with the result. I loved how we got to see places that I never would have seen if I went on my own. I met a few really nice people that I am actually meeting up with New York City next month. I love how it was action packed with a little downtime as well. Rosa was great. She explained things and was very nice and sweet to deal with. I’d highly recommend the adventures.
