Packed full of practical information on getting around and where to stay and eat, The Rough Guide to Colombia has more than 50 full-colour maps, along with suggested itineraries and regional highlights. The Rough Guide to Colombia authors have explored the mysterious tombs of Tierradentro, been white-water rafting in San Gil, trekked to Ciudad Perdida, the "lost city" of the Indigenous Tairona, and soaked up salsa in Cali and Barranquilla so you can too. Or follow in the footsteps of Gabriel García Márquez, dive in Caribbean reefs off Providencia and motor along jungle-smothered waterways in the Amazon. Make the most of your trip with The Rough Guide to Colombia.
