–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– It’s a Colombian holiday! And that can only mean one thing here at See Colombia Travel: it’s been a weekend of dancing and celebration, particularly as Colombia’s national team are through to the quarter finals of the World Cup! So to help get you in the mood for a […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– This month Bogota is playing host to its very own month of music, or ‘Festival of Festivals’ as I’ve also seen it called. Basically, if you’re coming to Colombia (or you’re already here) this May you’re in for a magical, musical treat. Colombia isn’t exactly short of music on […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– We all love salsa, right? There’s nothing like hearing that rhythm, shaking those hips, and, if you’re anything like me, invariably ending up looking like a total fool…Well, luckily for the likes of me, this weekend sees two whole days of salsa action heading to Bogota’s Parque Simon Bolivar, […]

Time to throw the laptop out of the window (figuratively speaking of course) and party like it’s 1999. We’re in luck this Friday too, as Barranquilla’s premier party-starters are in Bogota for one night […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Whilst those of us here at See Colombia Towers have been forced to spend the weekend getting some serious mileage out of our already fairly battered umbrellas, those with the foresight to flee the capital for the coast over the last few days will have been able to enjoy […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Colombians are passionate, patriotic and proud. Whether it’s the seemingly endless parade of national holidays celebrating independence and victories at battles, the tricolour flags flying proudly or the fierce nationalism on display any time the Colombian national football team plays, Colombians are quick to show their colours. This […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Well, and then 2014 happened. Two of the shiniest stars in the Latin music firmament both decided to release mega-albums within a fortnight of each other. Shakira and Juanes are no strangers to Grammies, Twitter followers, or massive hits, and, if early signs are anything to go by, Colombia […]
