Details
Colombia is back on the tourist map. The land of coffee, emeralds and Gabriel García Márquez is surfaced from decades of fear and indifference to once again wow visitors with its vibrant culture and little-known attractions: from the gold museum in Bogotá to the Lost City of the Tayrona; a cathedral inside a salt mine at Zipaquirá to the colonial treasures of Cartagena. There are mud volcanoes to bathe in, acres of flowers and coffee farms to visit. Fresh from their acclaimed South American stable comes Footprint's 3rd edition, to help you make sense of it all and get the most from this vivacious country.
