Spirit of Colombia Traveller Reviews

Group tour weaverbird colombia 2 weeks then to Galápagos Islands for a week,. After that a couple weeks in Nicaragua before flying to Yucatan for self drive 10 days.

They are amazing. I wouldn't go to central or South America with any other . This is the second time we've used them. They are a responsible tour operator that fits with our principles of supporting local business. The hotels are small independents and the guides all local. Everything is very effienctly done and my husband and I felt safe in their hands

A wide ranging tour of Colombia giving a good flavour of different parts of the country.

JLA tours benefit from excellent specialist knowledge of Latin America and a strong commitment to customer care particularly thyrough the high quality of their tour leaders.

After a guided tour of Santa Fé de Bogotá, and a visit to the gold museum, we flew to San Agustín to see the archaeological park and make a journey through the hills on horseback. We then took time out in Bogotá to walk up to Lake Guatavita, see an outstanding tango orchestra and dancers perform in a large theatre, paid for by the City Council, visit more museums & take a tour on the city tourist bus, with its young actors performing en route. Then we journeyed to the Tayrona National Park, where we walked along a jungle track, crossing columns of leaf-cutter ants and seeing monkeys in the canopy overhead. We finally arrived at a series of small bays on the Caribbean Coast. The water temperature was just right for a relaxing swim. Next, we travelled on to Aracata to see Gabriel García Márquez' childhood home, then on to Mompos for a journey down the River Magdalena and a study of the brilliant night sky from our hotel roof, under the guidance of Daniele Binaghi. Finally, we drove on to Cartagena de Indias for a city tour, drinks on the walls, a roof top dinner and a ticket for the Hay Festival in Cartagena. A truly memorable experience!

Everything was meticulously prepared and organised. We were found competitive air fares and given all the advice we could have wanted. The places visited were varied and our guide (Daniele Binaghi) attended to all our needs. No detail was too small for him. He managed all payments for local guides, advised on the best restaurants in every town and suggested interesting places to visit in our spare time. Journey Latin America must be congratulated for putting together such an interesting itinerary.

A good holiday, which was well led and guided, but let down by poor accommodation in several locations.

Journey Latin America were organised and efficient. The tour leader was excellent and most of the local guides were very good.

Weaverbird Colombia with JLA - Expert tour leader coupled with expert local guides meant this comprehensive tour really got us to experience an exciting and unknown destination. The small size of the group compared to many holidays and the lack of other tour operators around only heightened the enjoyment.. JLA organised a requested tour extension expertly and modified our request to improve the trip further. GREAT value for money

Expert, friendly , customer focussed.
