What's this trip about?

    Bogotá, the capital and largest city of Colombia, is a point of convergence for people from all over the country. Diverse and multicultural, it combines the old and the new. One can wonder at the charm of its architecture, contrasting styles are mixed, from modern buildings to the veneer of old houses that are authentic colonial gems. The capital is the union of all the best of Colombia. Barichara is simply the most beautiful town in all of Colombia. With its houses of Tapia (compacted earth), clay-tiled roofs, and cobblestone streets, you'll feel like you have been transported 400 years back in time Medellín sprawls north and south along a narrow valley, with its skyline reaching for the heavens. High-rise buildings loom large against a backdrop of jagged peaks in every direction. Blessed with a perfect climate it is known as the City of Eternal Spring. Guatapé combines history, tradition, and sensational landscapes giving amongst the best views in Colombia. An ideal destination to visit at any time of year, the lake was created through the flooding of two pueblos. The vista from the summit of La Piedra (Rock) is totally stunning.
