Planning your Colombia trip
Best time to go: Temperatures depend more on height above sea level than the time of year. Rainy seasons vary by region, so there is no single best time for the whole country.
- BogotáExplore historic streets, bookstores and a busy cultural scene.
- CartagenaWalk the old city's walls and see its Spanish colonial history.
- Villa de LeyvaVisit a historic town with Spanish colonial buildings.
- Lost CityReach ancient Tayrona ruins by trekking through jungle-covered mountains.
Scams to watch for in Colombia
- Taxi fare overchargingA driver takes advantage of unclear fares or does not start the meter. In Cartagena, taxis have no meters and drivers may demand a very high fare if you did not agree on it first. In Manizales, some taxis also have no meter. In Bogotá and Cali, meters show units rather than the price in pesos. Some surcharges are legitimate.
- Taxi detours and waiting-charge tricksSome drivers take a roundabout route or use waiting charges to increase the bill. If you stop during a journey, the driver may reset the meter and charge you the total of several fares.
- Shop referrals that raise your priceA street hawker leads you to a shop that pays them a large commission. The shop recovers that payment through a higher price charged to you.
