Colombia is racking up tourism accolades faster than I can write articles about them these days! In another boost for our favourite country in the world, renowned newspaper The Guardian has named Colombia on their travel ‘hot list’ for 2017, alongside other Latin American countries such as Bolivia and Belize.

Describing the country as “hotting up as a destination,” and paying particular attention to tourist destinations such as Palomino, Capurgana, Tayrona, La Guajira, San Agustin and Cano Cristales, the section on Colombia also notes that 2017 may well be the year that “the tourist floodgates open.” While this seems like a slight exaggeration, it is clear that this year is poised to be Colombia’s best ever year for international tourism.
