Itinerary

Kicking off in Medellín, Colombia, this tour takes you through vibrant cities, breathtaking landscapes, and cultural hotspots across not one, but four, incredible countries. From the colourful streets of Comuna 13 to the awe-inspiring peaks of the Andes, the iconic ruins of Machu Picchu, and the surreal landscapes of Bolivia’s Salt Flats – every day is packed with unforgettable experiences. So, grab your backpack and let’s explore!

*Please note that ongoing demonstrations and road blockades in parts of Bolivia may result in travel disruptions and itinerary adjustments. We continue to monitor the situation closely, and if changes become necessary, your Adventure Leader will keep you informed during the trip and arrange suitable alternatives.

day 1Welcome to Medellín

Hola and a very warm welcome to Medellín, Colombia! Your tour through South America officially kicks off this morning in the hotel lounge, where you’ll meet your fellow travel buddies and Adventure Leader for a trip briefing – outlining travel plans and top tips on staying safe in South America.  
After, it’s time to get your bearings with your first unmissable activity – a guided walk through Comuna 13. This is a vibrant neighbourhood renowned for its colourful street art, striking culture, and history of resilience. While it has its complex past, it’s since been transformed into a hub of urban renewal and innovation, featuring landmarks like outdoor escalators offering stunning views of the city, and murals that represent hope and progress.
After exploring, we’ll grab some lunch as a group at the Mercado del Río, a local food market offering a variety of Colombian cuisines, before taking a break from the city’s hustle and bustle for a Spanish class led by your Adventure Leader. Get prepped with some useful phrases that you can put to the test throughout your tour. 
¿Estás listo? Good! Because we’re heading back out for a walk around Medellín’s most famous sites including the Plaza Botero, the Palacio de la Cultura Rafael Uribe Uribe, and the Catedral Basílica Metropolitana. Cultural lovers – this is for you! But for those seeking out a little more adrenaline, why not opt for a paragliding flight offering an incredible bird-eyes view of the city below?
Come evening, we have some optional activities available:
Depending on fixtures, you can opt to watch a local soccer game at Estadio Atanasio Giradot.
If there is no game on, you could try our hand at Tejo – a Colombian game where you throw clay at gunpowder with the aim of causing a small explosion (Cool, right?)
If neither of those takes your fancy, then kick back with some drinks and salsa in El Poblado – one of Medellín’s safe party streets!
