The Itinerary
Day 1 - Arrival & Welcome
Arrive in Cartagena and step into a world of color, history, and Caribbean charm.
After settling in, head out for a photogenic walking tour through the city’s vibrant streets, where colonial architecture, lively plazas, and local life set the tone for the journey ahead.
In the evening, gather for a welcome dinner in a vibrant setting, the perfect moment to meet your fellow travelers and begin this shared experience.
Day 2 - Rosario Islands Escape
Leave the energy of Cartagena behind as you set off by speedboat to the breathtaking Rosario Islands.
Surrounded by turquoise waters and white-sand beaches, the day unfolds at a relaxed pace on a secluded island devoted to protecting the sea. Snorkel over a coral restoration project and learn how new coral is grown and returned to the reef, kayak through quiet mangrove lagoons, or simply unwind under the sun. With a delicious three-course island lunch and plenty of time to disconnect, this day offers a perfect balance of nature, rest, and Caribbean beauty.
Day 3 - Flavors & Rhythm
Today is a full sensory immersion into Cartagena’s culture. Begin at the vibrant Bazurto market, where colors, sounds, and aromas create an authentic glimpse into local daily life.
Then, step into the kitchen for a hands-on cooking experience alongside local chefs, learning traditional recipes and the stories behind them. As the day transitions into evening, the rhythm of the Caribbean takes over with a lively salsa or champeta dance class, a joyful and energetic way to connect with the spirit of the destination.
Day 4 - From Coast to Capital
This morning, leave the Caribbean coast behind and fly to Bogotá, where a completely different atmosphere awaits.
Set high in the Andes, the capital offers a blend of history, creativity, and modern energy. Dive into Colombia’s cultural heritage through a fascinating emerald workshop experience, gaining insight into one of the country’s most iconic resources.
The day ends with a carefully curated dinner that highlights the diversity of Colombian cuisine, offering a deeper connection to the country’s flavors.
Day 5 - Coffee & Countryside
Journey into the lush mountains surrounding Bogotá for an authentic and immersive coffee experience.
At a local farm, you’ll follow the entire bean-to-cup process, from harvesting coffee cherries to understanding the craftsmanship behind each cup. Guided by local experts, this hands-on day connects you with the land, the people, and one of Colombia’s most important traditions, all set against a backdrop of stunning natural landscapes.
Day 6 - Salt, Spa & Celebration
The morning is yours, to rest or to explore Bogotá at your own pace.
In the afternoon, travel to the colonial town of Zipaquirá and descend 180 meters underground into the extraordinary Salt Cathedral, a former salt mine, for a spa experience among its salt formations. A moment of deep relaxation and reflection.
As night falls, the mood changes completely. Dinner is at one of the most legendary restaurants in Colombia, where traditional food, live music, and a festive atmosphere turn the evening into a celebration.
Day 7 - Medellín & Art
Fly to Medellín, a city that has reinvented itself through creativity and innovation.
Upon arrival, explore its streets through an artistic lens, discovering Botero’s iconic sculptures, visiting the Museum of Antioquia, and gaining insight into the city’s cultural transformation. This is a gentle yet inspiring introduction to Medellín, a place where history, resilience, and modern energy come together in a truly unique way.
Today invites you deeper into Colombia’s natural and cultural roots.
In the mountains of Antioquia, join local farming families and follow cacao from bean to bar. Walk through the groves, see how the pods are harvested, fermented, and dried, and grind roasted beans by hand into rich, aromatic chocolate.
The day ends by a mountain stream, with a traditional lunch wrapped in plantain leaves and a cacao mask before a refreshing dip in natural stone pools. A grounding and enriching day that engages all the senses.
Day 8 - Cacao & Nature
Day 9 - Guatapé & Lakeside Living
Travel into the green hills of Antioquia to the Guatapé reservoir, a maze of emerald water and small islands.
If you wish, climb the more than 700 steps of the iconic El Peñol rock for one of the most famous views in Colombia. The climb is optional.
Then retreat to a private lake house, where the afternoon is yours: lunch prepared by a private chef, a heated pool and jacuzzi, and kayaks and paddleboards to explore the calm water. This day is all about slowing down and enjoying the beauty of the moment.
Day 10 - Transformation & Farewell
Discover the powerful story of Comuna 13 through an Afro-Colombian lens, where art, music, and community have transformed the past into a vibrant present. Meet local artists and try graffiti, urban dance, and percussion alongside them, visit community projects such as urban gardens, and ride the Metrocable above the hillside neighborhoods.
This meaningful experience is followed by a farewell dinner, where the group comes together one last time to celebrate the journey, the connections made, and the memories created.
Day 11 - Departure
Enjoy a relaxed final morning in Medellín before your private transfer to the airport.
As the journey comes to an end, you leave with more than memories, carrying the colors, rhythms, and connections that made this experience truly unforgettable.

Yes, absolutely. This experience was created especially for women who want to explore the world in meaningful company.

You may arrive solo, but the goal is for you to feel part of something from the very beginning.

You should fly into Cartagena, Colombia (CTG — Rafael Núñez International Airport) and fly out of Medellín, Colombia (MDE — José María Córdova International Airport).
The journey begins in Cartagena and ends in Medellín, and your private individual airport arrival and departure transfers are included as part of the program.

The rhythm of the trip is balanced and intentional. Some days are relaxed, with beach time, scenic walks, or lakeside moments, while others are more active, with markets, dancing, nature experiences, and cultural visits. The overall activity level is moderate, including walking tours, light hikes, boat rides, and a dance class, so you should feel comfortable being on your feet and open to moving through different environments.
-
You’ll want to pack for warm Caribbean days, cooler mountain weather, and colorful, expressive moments.
Bring light, breathable clothes for Cartagena and the Rosario Islands, such as sundresses, linen pieces, swimsuits, sandals, a hat, and sunglasses. For Bogotá, pack layers, the city sits at a higher altitude and can feel much cooler, especially in the mornings and evenings. For Medellín and Guatapé, comfortable casual outfits, light layers, and easy daywear work perfectly.
You’ll also want comfortable walking shoes for city tours, markets, Comuna 13, and countryside experiences, plus a nicer outfit or two for welcome and farewell dinners. Don’t forget swimwear, a cover-up, sunscreen, insect repellent, and something fun to dance in for the salsa or champeta experiences.

You’ll experience three very different sides of Colombia: Cartagena, Bogotá, and Medellín.

In Bogotá, you’ll explore emerald heritage, coffee culture, a spa experience inside the Salt Cathedral, and a festive dinner with live music. In Medellín, you’ll discover art, cacao, a private lake house in Guatapé, and the powerful story of Comuna 13.

You’ll stay in carefully selected accommodations that reflect the character, comfort, and spirit of each destination: a restored colonial hotel inside the Walled City in Cartagena, a contemporary and well-located hotel in Bogotá, and a design-forward hotel in a vibrant neighborhood of Medellín.

The main program includes accommodation in double occupancy. If you prefer your own private room, there is an optional Single Supplement available, subject to availability.

-
The trip includes 10 nights of accommodation in double occupancy, all private transportation needed throughout the program, private individual airport arrival and departure transfers, domestic flights, local English-speaking guides, Her Getaway Club accompaniment throughout the journey, all experiences mentioned in the program, meals as indicated, entrance fees for included activities and attractions, and tips and gratuities.

Part of the journey takes place in Bogotá, which sits at a higher altitude than Cartagena and Medellín. The itinerary is intentionally paced to allow time for rest, hydration, and adjustment, especially when we first arrive in the city. Most travelers adapt well, but it’s important to listen to your body, drink plenty of water, avoid overexerting yourself on the first day in Bogotá, and speak with your doctor before traveling if you have any concerns. Travel and medical insurance is mandatory for this trip, so you’ll need to have coverage in place before departure.
