The tour was very informative and professional provided. I would have enjoyed a slower paced tour spending more time at each location, primarily the places outside the cities. The cities were chaotic and crazy overflowing with many displaced people. I'm just saying

Jairo wonderfully welcomed us into the beautiful country of Colombia and guided us throughout our amazing journey across multiple cities. From the wax palm trees of the Cocora Valley to the inspiring murals of Comuna 13, and from the picturesque hacienda to the colourful walls of Cartagena, Jairo gifted us with his superb knowledge, exceptional hospitality, and unbeatable enthusiasm. My 10-day trip to Colombia was short, but it was an incredibly educational and transformative experience for me. I know our journey wouldn't be the same without such a professional, caring, engaging, and passionate CEO, and I believe Jairo is making a meaningful impact to both Colombia and the travellers he's met. Returning from my tour, I've been blessed with enriching knowledge of the country's history, art, biodiversity, and economy, as well as an abundance of refreshing perspectives from various communities of the region on nature, life, and wealth. Colombia touched my heart and we were beyond lucky to have Jairo as our CEO!

In a word: wild. The jungle was hotter and wetter than I ever could?ve imagined. Nothing Ever dried. The bugs are bad. It?s really hard. And I?d do it all again in a second. I think I expected something like the Inca Trail, but this was just a totally different experience and I am so, so grateful that I got to have it!!!
