Wonderful trip - from initial email to end of trip. Wonderful set up with this local travel specialist - detailed concise from the beginning. Wonderful set up- wonderful places to stay, fantastic drivers and guides.
This trip was a life changing experience for me and the four other folks that accompanied me. It take a while to get to the final destination, but when you arrive, your experience starts immediately. After a midway stop at a breakfast spot with an unbelievable view, you arrive in a rural town in Colombia and begin descending the mountainside to arrive at the river. The guides bring along a delicious meal which everyone eats while they set up the rafts and then you hop into the water. The guides are all highly qualified, passing international certifications for rafting and the next four hours are filled with experiences and rapids that will blow you away. Honestly, the scenery of the riverside, the knowledge that the guides passed along, and the never ending laughter created an experience I will never forget.
Colombia express needs more efficient itinerary Overall it was a good to get a quick experience of Colombia but on certain days it was too much free time and on certain days very rushed. Spending two free afternoons on at Armenia was a total waste of time. Also, we could have taken an early morning flight from Medellin to Cartagena instead of afternoon flight which just wasted half a day. On the whole nearly 1.5 days wasted. Otherwise it was good.
