Colombia is an amazing country and we booked this tour over the holidays last minute and tour radar did a great job getting us booked and guided! All our guides and drivers were great and only had one issue with a hotel because everything in the town was overbooked for New Years. Tour Radar stepped up and made it right for us. Great job team TourRadar !
Tailor-Made 10 Days Best Golden Colombia Guided Tour, Daily Depart (Private)All the guides were very good. However the pick up times changed at times with very little notice. Also it would be good to know the night before with recommended attire etc.
Fly Colombia 20 Day Tour: Discover the Caribbean, Andes & AmazonI can't say enough about our amazing trip to Colombia! Andrea at Colombia Trip was responsive and helpful, both before and during the trip. Our experiences in Medellin, Tayrona, and Cartagena were well planned, perfectly coordinated, and executed with great care by our drivers and tour guides. The accommodations where beautiful and strategically located in every part of our stay. Colombia is rich in cultural diversity, biodiversity, and history. We felt that we got to learn and experience the flavor of this amazing country and its wonderfully warm and inviting people. Thanks to Andres in Medellin, David in Santa Marta and Tayrona, and Jorge in Cartagena for being such informative, fun, and engaging guides. I highly recommend this trip!
