Now is the time to dive deeper into the country’s multifarious treasures, to go beyond the traditional tourist route with one-on-one encounters and insider experiences. Thanks to a deeper understanding gathered on each excursion, brilliant cities like Bogotá, Medellín, and Cartagena dazzle even more brightly in topics like history, social regeneration, the arts, and cuisine.
