Notre Avis

⚠️ Not ideal. The Caribbean coast is still okay, but the Andean roads are prone to landslides.

🎯 Best Time to Visit Colombia

The dry season, running from December to March, is the undisputed best time to visit Colombia. During these months, you can reliably expect sunny beach days on the Caribbean coast and clear hiking weather in the Andes mountains.

💰 Budget Guide: Colombia

Budget ($30-45/day) / Mid-range ($70-120/day) / Luxury ($200+/day). Colombia is one of excellent value destinations in South America. Food, transport, and excellent hostels/boutique hotels are very affordable.

✈️ Getting to Colombia

El Dorado International Airport (BOG) in Bogotá is the primary hub, but you can increasingly fly direct from the US to Medellín (MDE) and Cartagena (CTG).

⚠️ Conseils de Voyage Essentiels Colombia

🧥

Pack for Three Climates

If you visit Bogotá, Medellín, and Cartagena, you need a winter jacket, spring sweaters, and sweltering summer beachwear, all in one trip.

📱

Don't 'Give Papaya'

‘No dar papaya’ is the golden rule of Colombia. It means don't put yourself in a position where you can easily be taken advantage of. Hide your valuables, and don't flash wealth.

Drink the 'Tinto'

Locals fuel up on 'tinto', small cups of sweet, cheap, dark coffee sold from thermoses on the street for 20 cents. The good export-quality coffee is usually saved for upscale cafes.

🚗

Use Ride Apps

Never hail a yellow taxi off the street, especially at night or outside an airport. Use Cabify or Uber (though Uber technically operates in a legal gray area, it is widely used and safe).

🛡️ Assurance Voyage Recommandée

Get travel insurance for peace of mind.
