The history and culture of Columbia is revealed in this guide, packed with practical advice and valuable tips for safe travel. The top spots for hiking, diving, rafting and other outdoor adventures... This description may be from another edition of this product.
just a guide. and colombia is not an easy country to write about. its changing and changing fast. so if you are thinking of going . go NOW. before its too late. jetblue and spirit are flying and hard rock just opened, and once starbucks comes its over. even in tairona, despite its beauty, i could see the laws of capitalism taking root in the 14.000 breakfast. but there are still some great spots. and what i found interesting about the LP book was what they left out. i think it was almost in an attempt to help preserve colombia from the back packers. especially one place they totally left out and never mentioned. it would be a like writing about the US and forgetting the grand canyon. I'll give you a hint. CDLV

I love visiting Colombia, but finding reliable information about the country sometimes it is hard. This book reduced my research time and it helped me getting around cities. One disappointing thing was that they did not have Casa El Carretero www.CasaElCarretero.com This is the best boutique hotel in Cartagena Colombia. I was so impressed with their service and attention to detail that I decided to write reviews about the place. I hope in the next edition of Lonely Planet Colombia they include this great property as an option for lodging. The book has great information for traveling by road and visiting all the national parks. El Parque Tayrona is very much worth the effort of visiting.
