Review of Bogotá’s private 9-hour city tour, with Paloquemao Market, local tastings, museums, La Candelaria, Monserrate, and coffee.

“Very nice and complete tour. They offer you an exclusive experience (small group, or solo as in my case), which is perfect because you have close contact with the guide, and then you can enjoy their explanations, adjust your experience at your will (of course with reasoning), and get a private tour. They’re constantly asking for feedback about the activities, so be honest so that the staff can solve any issue related to the activity and provide you a great and flexible experience.

Review of a five-day private Amazon trip from Leticia, with Puerto Nariño, jungle cabins, Peru, wildlife, local meals, and practical tips.

“This was a fantastic trip in every way possible. Starting with the clear, timely communication with Karla, one of the owners, to our arrival in Leticia then in Puerto Narino, everything every step of the way was handled professionally. The guides and English translator were top notch, so were the accommodations and the meals. We felt we had a very good exposure to the area’s natural history in the jungle and on the water. There’s a fair amount of walking on slippery trails so a person needs to be in decent shape.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 9 reviews · 1 day · from $44

Visit Totumo mud volcano near Cartagena, enjoy a 20-minute mud bath, typical lunch, pool, and a quiet beach afternoon for $44.

“Le bain de boue était amusant et original, on a bien rigolé. En revanche, on était vraiment entassés avec d’autres personnes, donc pas très intime. Après ça, on se baigne dans le lac à côté pour se rincer de la boue. Mais attention : il y a toujours quelqu’un qui vous propose de vous laver, de prendre une photo, ou de faire autre chose — et tout est payant. À la fin, plusieurs personnes vous entourent presque de force pour réclamer de l’argent. C’est un peu agressif et ça peut gâcher le moment. Bref, à faire pour l’expérience, mais prenez de la monnaie sur vous !”
