Reviewed By Jhilgendag

The Tayrona Park is a must for everyone who love nature and is looking for a real authentic travel experience. We joined with our kids and could handle the whole trip from main entrance until Cabo San Juan... Around 2 hours walk plus some breaks for photos, hidratatión...meanwhile you join lovely views of paradise beaches, tropic landscapes and sometimes curios visitors...I mean here animals and insects... When you arrive finally at Cabo San Juan you will join a beautiful view, a camping area and restaurant close to beach. And the Caribbean ready to refresh yourself. If you don't have time to stay during the night than the best what you can do is join the rest of the day at the beach and asked before one of the horses rentals to bring you back in the last return. So you can join this paradise for a while. It's full of young people you looking for a authentic travel experience. So you can make friends really easy and sharing your travel experiences. Some recommendations : Important to join you need good shoes (good crocs or light tennis), 2liter of water at least, snacks or sandwiches, sun cream, cap, antimosquito spray, cash en Colombian pesos, and you can buy tickets in advanced...form the main entrance you will need a pick up until the real entrance of the path...from there everything is just like in paradise.

El Dorado Bird Reserve

Reviewed By 601nickh - Tring, United Kingdom

This wonderful bird reserve set up by Pro Aves high in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta was a highlight of our trip to Colombia. The drive up isamazing and our 4X4 driver was fantastic. The jungle changes as you drive up with different plants and trips - and the most amazing guides. The manager Brena was very welcoming and hospital, nothing was too much trouble and his English was excellent. The Kogihabs were modern, clean and wonderfully situated with views to the Caribbean and over the fabulous mountains. Hot water on tap -amazing considering how isolated it is. The 15 minute walk to bed via a hanging bridge and a jungle path was great. An early morning drive (complete with a warm breakfast) to view the sunrise over the snowy peaks was a great memory maker. We also had the services of a brilliant guide, Annul, who taught us so much about Colombian birds in a day and found fabulous species endemic to the area. The food is generous and prepared with the warm heart of hospitality. Highly recommended.

Reviewed By alessandracruy - Bogota, Colombia

Very nice and pleasant stay at Crystal beach. The water is super clean and you can see many yellow fishes very close to the sand. There are available chairs/umbrella to rent and a small restaurant.

Playa Neguanje

Reviewed By TrailBlazer63575 - Santa Marta, Colombia

It is located in Tairona Park. To go there you see the sea of the 7 waves, you can stay here or go to Cristal Beach. Very attractive place because of the mountains close to it.
