I had two amazing cycling experiences with Colombia Cycling. On very short notice, I asked Tomas what tours were available. He quickly invited me to join a tour that was departing later in the day so I jumped on the opportunity. All the riders were much more experienced than me, but everyone was very kind and helpful. Tomas even allowed me to use his own custom bike! My schedule allowed me to only ride for the first day of that 3-day tour, so Marcela kindly drove me back to Medellin. A few days later, I enjoyed another memorable day of cycling with Tomas, departing from the Indiana Mall in Las Palmas. I learned a lot about cycling and the area from from a real professional and all-around good guy. Very highly recommended.

I highly recommend Uncharted to anyone who wants to experience beautiful and colourful Colombia. It's impossible to find someone more professional, reliable, friendly, detailed and organized than Cami & team. With them you know you are in very good and capable hands. Our trip was flawlessly organized and customized to our specific needs. We were a group of 9 friends who trekked the Sierra Nevada del Cocuy, experienced the exotic Santa Marta and Tayrona National Park, discovered La Guajira and spent sunny and relaxing days in Cartagena de Indias. Thank you, Uncharted, for an unforgettable and perfect trip!
