With having left all our luggage, bar a small day bag, in Pelikan Hostal it was a joy to be travelling light and made getting on and of transport blissfully easy. The collectivo to Santa Marta / Mamatoco dropped us along a main road where we flagged ... Read more >

We’d booked this 5D/4N trek to track down Ciudad Perdida through Magic Tours at an outrageous P600 000 each! There was no point shopping around as the prices are fixed but the daftest thing is it’s the same price whether you do 4, 5 ... Read more >

Getting to this fishing bay involved another mammoth journey; the bus from San Gil goes to Barranquila to the west, so we were dropped at Cienaga where the highway splits along the coast. However, the friendly chap in the Brasilia bus office sold ... Read more >

We jumped on the 7.50am bus for the hour long journey to Pereira (P5500) where we changed onto the 9am bus for Medellin (P30 000). We’d thoroughly enjoyed Salento and weren’t particularly looking forward to being in a big city but at ... Read more >

Guess what? The skies were the clearest they’d been since we set foot in Colombia. Oh well, that should make for a pleasant day’s travel to Salento; a place we’d only heard good things about. From what we could gather ... Read more >

Waiting around for the 10.45pm bus in Lago Agrio got a little tedious to say the least. Town has nothing to offer the tourist but we had a wander around anyway, killed a bit of time in an internet café and wondered what to do next. ... Read more >
