Publisher's Synopsis
Brand new for 2015, the Rough Guide to Colombia provides in-depth, expert coverage of one of South America's fastest-growing destinations. Get the lowdown on street art in Bogota and colonial architecture in Cartagena, stay on a working finca in the emerald green hills of the Zona Cafetera or hike through pristine jungle to reach a remote white sand beach in Tayrona National Park. Packed full of practical information on getting around and where to stay and eat, the guide has more than 50 full-colour maps, along with suggested itineraries and regional highlights. Our authors have explored the mysterious tombs of Tierradento, been white-water rafting in San Gil, trekked to Ciudad Perdida, the "lost city" of the Indigenous Tayrona and soaked up salsa in Cali and Barranquilla. They've followed in the footsteps of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, dived in Caribbean reefs off Providencia and motored along jungle-smothered waterways in the Amazon. Make the most of your trip with the Rough Guide to Colombia.
