Overview & Highlights
Wander through enchanting colonial towns in the highlands east of Bogotá and spot an array of wildlife on the floodplains of Los Llanos on this tour to Colombia's less-visited regions.
This trip to the lesser-known eastern part of Colombia showcases the country’s incredible diversity. From the enchanting colonial towns of Barichara and Villa de Leyva you’ll head to the wildlife-rich plains of Los Llanos and hang out with cowboys.
Watch this part of Colombia unfold through scenic drives that take in rolling hills, dramatic canyons, Colombia’s largest lake, and Andean high páramo, before descending to the hot and humid plains. In our view, there’s no better way to experience this part of Colombia.
