Is this trip for me?
This trip is for people who like to have fun and make friends, regardless of their age. It will be a unique experience in one of Latin America’s most fulfilling destinations! We have no doubts that if you come with a relaxed and positive mindset, you’ll have the trip of a lifetime!
It is important to understand that this is an adventure trip, and as such, there is always an element of the unexpected. Traveling in Colombia is not like staying at the Hilton in London… a lot can happen, from the water pressure in the hotel not being as good as the one in your house, to the food not being as good as your mother’s, to coming across unfamiliar animals…
But it’s good that things are different, otherwise, it wouldn’t be worth leaving home. Also, good weather is unfortunately not a guarantee in a tropical country like Colombia. It can therefore be raining one minute and sunny the next…
It is also important that you know that there may be changes in the itinerary. After all, what kind of a trip would it be without some adventure?
If you invite a friend to come on the tour, it is essential that you pass this information on to them. We want to make sure that everyone who comes along is aware of what to expect and that they join us with the right, adventurous mind frame that will create a healthy group dynamic!
What kind of rooms are we staying in?
We will be staying in twin rooms in 4 and 5 star hotels in Bogota, Salento, Medellin and Cartagena.
If you are traveling alone, you will be paired with another traveler of the same gender.
If you are traveling as a couple, rest assured that you will get your own private room together.
What if I want a single room?
Please let us know if this is something that you would like and we will try to arrange it for you if possible. All additional costs will be incurred by the client. The hotels we stay in are often booked in advance and it is therefore impossible to ensure that there are single rooms on the date you make the request.
Is international airfare provided?
Yes, Roady will arrange your return airfare from Cyprus to Colombia (via Frankfurt) with Lufthansa (23 kgs permitted). The package also includes domestic flights from Colombia’s capital city Bogota, to Armenia in the country’s coffee region, as well as a flight from Medellin to Cartagena and from Cartagena back to Bogota.
Can I go alone?
Of course! Most of our travelers sign up individually. They go to Colombia alone and come back with 10 new friends.
Who will I share my journey with?
You’ll spend the trip with our tour leader, Marcos. You’ll also spend all the days with other travelers who have many things in common with you, like a passion for traveling, for adventure, for discovery … and who are looking for new emotions and unforgettable moments on this trip. We normally have travelers from anywhere between 28 to 50 years old and we can assure you that the atmosphere is very fun and that you’ll end the trip with a new group of friends.
What is the exact number of travelers in the group?
It depends on the demand for that specific tour, but minimum 9 and maximum 14.
In order for this specific trip to go ahead though, we will need at least 9 people to sign up.
Is the group of travelers flying together?
Yes, as Roady will be arranging all your flights from Cyprus to Colombia and back.
How do we meet at the airport?
We’ll take the data of all travelers and coordinate beforehand using WhatsApp so that we can arrange to share a ride to Larnaca airport, or to just meet there before flight departure.
Is there an age requirement?
You must be 23 years old or older. However, we try to put together a group, where we feel similar interests will be held. That is to say, similar age groups and dynamics. As a result, we personally speak to all potential travelers to make sure that they fit in with the environment that we wish to create.
Do I need to take any specific equipment?
No, no special equipment is necessary, though hiking shoes would be useful and you will also want to take a waterproof jacket in case of rain during our trek in the coffee region.
Will I have any time for myself?
Of course! We hate tours that book every minute of your day. Our tour will be busy, but there will also be plenty of time to rest and disconnect.
Why are some of the meals not included?
We like to give you some time to be alone and seize every second of the day your own way. With that in mind, lunches will often take place with the rest of the group, wherever we may be on that specific day, while for dinner you can go wherever you want, either as a group of alone.
What about visas?
No visas are needed for Cyprus passport holders to enter Colombia.
Other passports please inquire for details. Any visa costs will be paid by the client.
Please note that all passports must have an expiry date of at least six months after your departure from Colombia.
How many spots can I book at one time for the tour?
As many as you want. The maximum number of travelers is 14.
Can I save spots?
No, spots are only effectively reserved after payment.
