Without sacrificing your comfort, this fascinating Colombian adventure will take you to coffee plantations to taste where your morning cup of joe comes from, then on to to Medellín for some big-city bustle. Then switch gears and indulge in the caribbean beauty of Tayrona, and the colonial charm of Cartagena. This 12-day journey is an intriguing mixture of rural, tropical and urban—and culture and of course, coffee.
