Overview

Book online and enjoy exclusive savings on G Adventures 14 Day Colombia's Caribbean Coast & Lost City. Colombia has a certain kind of magic that you won’t find anywhere else in the Caribbean. On this trip, you’ll experience it first-hand via visits to rural regions, treks through Tayrona National Park’s picturesque trails and (of course), downtime on the beach. Spend time with village communities to learn about Indigenous traditions before heading deep into the jungle to Teyuna — the fabled Ciudad Perdida (Lost City) older than Machu Picchu — a place crowded with history and free of crowds. Colombia...read more is mysterious. Come figure out the riddle.

Itinerary

Arrive at any time. Stay: Casa Villa Colonial

Enjoy a city tour, visiting the colonial walled city and fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy free time to take in the Caribbean vibe of the city and beach. Stay: Casa Villa Colonial (B)

Travel to the small town of Minca, breathe in the fresh mountain air and enjoy free time to explore. Stay: Hotel Minca La Casona (B)

Head into Tayrona National Park for a moderate hike with a local guide. This is a perfect opportunity to experience nature and learn a little more about the rich, natural diversity of northern Colombia. Stay in a lodge close to the park. Stay: Posada Villa Margarita (B/L)

Spend the day visiting a nearby indigenous community. Gain insights into the rich traditional cultures of this region, and the Arhuacos. Enjoy a textile weaving demonstration by members of local families in the Katanzama community. Afterwards, transfer to Playa de los Cocos for an included lunch at a local restaurant near the beach. Take advantage of free time to head to the beach nearby or relax in a hammock and enjoy the ocean breeze. Stay: Posada Villa Margarita (B/L)

In the afternoon, travel from Tayrona to Taganga. Orientation walk with CEO upon arrival. Stay: Ocean Taganga (B)

With a free day at leisure, tour Taganga by foot or don a snorkel and mask and explore the water. This evening, travel to Santa Marta and join your group for an optional evening out on the town. Stay: Hotel Tayromar (B)

Use the day to soak up some sun or make any last minute purchases before starting the big trek. Stay: Hotel Tayromar (B)

Wake up and hit the road to the village of El Mamey where your trek to the Lost City of Teyuna begins. Trek through farmland, steamy jungle, and rural Kogi communities. Enjoy and let it all soak in – this is your opportunity to get a glimpse into the local way of life in the remote river valleys of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The group will have lunch at the village and hike about 4 hours to the first basecamp. (B/L/D)

Venture further into the lush jungle en route to Ciudad Perdida. Be prepared – today is a tough portion of the trek with a lot of steep views. Arrive at the campsite in the afternoon for some much needed relaxation by the river. (B/L/D)

Wake up early feeling refreshed, recharged (hopefully!) and start your trek to La Ciudad Perdida. Climb the 1200 ancient steps and explore the different sacred sites of Lost City. Later, continue trekking through the deep jungle today on winding paths through banana trees and cacao plants as you make your way to Mumake Camp. The total hiking time today is 8 hours with about 3 hours to explore the Lost City. (B/L/D)

The group will have an early departure from Mumake Camp. Hike past the village of El Mamey and arrive to Ricardito Camp where you'll have lunch and rest for the remainder of the day. (B/L/D)

In the morning, take in your last views of the jungle as you trek back to Machete Pelao. Transfer to Santa Marta where the rest of the day is yours to relax. Stay: Hotel Tayromar (B/L)
