The Magic of Colombia

The South American country of Colombia is quickly becoming the go-to destination for just about all travelers. Whether you're looking for quaint beach towns or bustling, culture rich cities, Colombia has it all.

Colombia's capital city of Bogota boasts a culturally rich atmosphere that hosts more than 40 museums. One of the most celebrated museums holds the work of one of Colombia's most recognized artists, Fernando Botero. The Museo Botero not only holds Botero's famous paintings, but also works by Dalí, Renoir, and Picasso among many others. If you'd rather get to know more about the pre-Hispanic cultures in Colombia head to the Museo de Oro or the Gold Museum. This impressive space holds more than 55,000 pieces stemming from the pre-Hispanic cultures. For an impressive view of the capital city, visit Mount Monserrate. Take the cable car up and enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views. Once you reach the top, you won't be disappointed by the views or the traditional food options available.

It's no secret that one of Colombia's most recognized exports is coffee. Get to know more about the history behind the importance of coffee in Colombia by taking a trip to one of the many coffee plantations in the country. The Hacienda Coloma Coffee Plantation is a beautiful coffee plantation located about an hour and a half away from Bogota. You can get picked up at your hotel and taken on a tour for the day where you will see how things work on the plantation and even get to sample some fresh, delicious Colombian coffee before being driven back to your hotel.

The city of Cartagena has recently become one of the most trendy and popular vacation destinations around. It's easy to see why this seaside colonial city attracts so many visitors. Charming colonial buildings are now home to trendy restaurants and boutiques in this relaxed, but popular city. From Cartagena, you can take a boat ride out to the Rosario Islands.
