Another trip is coming to an end. Once again, I was able to enjoy an unforgettable time and get to know a country I'd never known before, but have now come to appreciate. TruTravels is also extremely fortunate to be able to regularly assemble such a great group. Isa always kept an eye on things and was always able to provide us with tips and tricks to ensure unforgettable experiences. Everything was excellently organized, and nothing stood in the way of a fantastic time. I'm delighted to have been part of this tour.

Discover South America's best-kept secret on this 15-day adventure through the verdant mountains and powdery beaches of Colombia. Head into the serene highlands of Colombia's famed coffee region and discover the sweeter, softer side of this misunderstood country. Fall in love with Bogota's heart, laze on palm-fringed stretches of Caribbean shoreline and hang with locals that redefine hospitality.
I had a wonderful time traveling with G to Colombia. The CEOs were wonderful, and G always seems to attract likeminded travellers who I thoroughly enjoy my time with. As a 30-something year old woman, I completely recommend taking a Classic tour, as there is a wonderful mix of age ranges that add so much character to the tour. The tour to Colombia included a great mix of smaller towns and larger cities, and I felt the pacing was perfect. While the accommodations could be improved, I had such a wonderful time, and would highly recommend the tour to others.
