Exciting and unpredictable, Colombia lures you to sultry South America. Reach new heights in its hip, high-altitude capital, or atop the world's longest mountain range. Float on, through swaths of rainforest, to a barren desert by the sea. Discover a lost city, or dive down to sunken ships and coral gardens. From pristine coast to natural marvels and colonial towns, Colombia defies expectations.
