Itinerary Highlights

Cartagena: The walled city

Start your journey in Cartagena. This is a great amount of time to get your bearings. You can spend two full days exploring the historic walled city and the bohemian neighbourhood of Getsemaní at a relaxed pace. On your third day, you can take a local trip to a nearby island or beach that’s not on the main tourist trail, like the beaches of Tierra Bomba, for a more authentic experience.

San Andrés & Providencia: The Hidden Island Gems

This is the heart of your trip, and having a full week here is exactly what you need.

San Andrés. Fly from Cartagena to San Andrés. Use these days to see the “sea of seven colours,” visit the Aquarium and Johnny Cay, and get all the fun touristy bits out of the way.

Providencia. Take a catamaran or a small plane from San Andrés to Providencia, your true hidden gem. This remote island is protected and has a completely different vibe. You’ll have five full days to explore the magnificent barrier reef, hike to the top of the island’s peak, and truly relax in a paradise that few people ever get to see.

Tayrona National Park: Jungle & Beach

After your time on the islands, you’ll fly back to the mainland and head to Tayrona National Park. Spend three days hiking through the jungle to discover the park’s famous secluded beaches. This is the perfect amount of time to enjoy the nature and the beautiful views without rushing.

Minca: The Coffee & Cacao Hideaway

You’ll take a bus to Santa Marta, the gateway to the Sierra Nevada mountains. Just a short trip up the mountain from there is Minca, a tranquil coffee-growing village with a much cooler climate. This is where the magic of Colombia’s landscape truly unfolds. You’ll spend about a week here, staying in a jungle eco-lodge, hiking to stunning waterfalls, and visiting coffee and cacao farms. It’s a place to truly relax and disconnect from the world.

Mompox: River & History

This is your final hidden gem. From Palomino, you’ll travel to Santa Marta and then take a bus to Mompox. This beautiful colonial city is a designated UNESCO World Heritage site, yet it’s completely off the main tourist trail due to its remote location. You can wander through its timeless streets, visit the beautiful churches, and feel like you’ve travelled back in time.
