What was good about our local partner based in Colombia?
Easy to contact online and receptive to our ideas. All arrangements were put in place seamlessly and the guides were all good and some quite exceptional.
What could our local partner based in Colombia improve on?
We didn't always know who was meeting us, but someone always turned up! The guides all had good English language, but we did find that a bit of Spanish was necessary where we only had a driver - luckily, our minimal Spanish was sufficient.
What did you think about the guides or drivers on your trip?
Natalia (guide in Barichara) was exceptional - excellent knowledge of the destination and a well-balanced tour. Alex (guide in Bogota) was also very good and spent much more time showing us around than we expected.
What advice would you give to other travellers planning a trip to Colombia?
Go to Barichara - it really is worth the extra time.
What was the most memorable part of your trip?
Many things - the salt cathedral at Zipaquira and the drive past the Chicamocha canyon were unexpected highlights, but everything was good.

Planning the trip with TravelLocal's Colombian partner was very easy and the arrangements all went well. TravelLocal were also very helpful when necessary.
