Nature and Adventure Tours in Colombia: Amazon, Caño Cristales and the Pacific Coast
Colombia’s wildest places are the Amazon, reached by flying to Leticia; Caño Cristales, the river of five colors in Sierra de la Macarena National Park, best from June to November; and the Pacific Coast of Chocó, where humpback whales arrive from July to October. Each is reached by plane and works best with local guides and a little flexibility.
