At Colombian Travels, we’re all about showing you the true face of Colombia. We want to share this passion with you and take you to the places only the locals know about.

Come with us to tour Colombia and you will explore traditional villages, learn about our indigenous cultures, visit our beautiful national parks or swing in a hammock under the stars. We’ll take you off the beaten track and show you the things you won’t find in guide books.

Whether you come alone, with your family or friends, going on one of our small group tours give you the chance to travel with like-minded people, make great new friends and have a holiday of a lifetime.

Our beginnings

Colombian Travels was founded by Santiago Duarte, a proud Colombian, a lawyer and a seasoned global traveller who is dedicated to promoting his country as a viable tourist destination, and also believes in supporting local communities and the preservation and restoration of Colombia’s beautiful national parks.He is now studying tourism management and divides his time between Australia and Colombia. Santiago has a network of professional tour guides around the country to offer you a truly authentic experience for your Colombian vacation..

We’re all about creating great holiday experiences whilst supporting the development and promotion of responsible tourism. We deeply believe in building a tourism industry that respects local regulations, values, customs and most importantly, helps to preserve sensitive areas in one of the richest countries in natural diversity in the world.
