You can also soak up its culture and history in cities such as Cartagena, Medellin and Bogota, and enjoy the delicious local cuisine. We know you&#8217;re looking forward to the adventure, but first of all, it&#8217;s important to get the facts straight, so you can plan your trip to Colombia in the best possible way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Passporter we have travelled to Colombia on a few occasions and we want to share our experience through<strong> numerous tips that will help you with all the preparations<\/strong> and that will inform you about <strong>the necessary documentation to travel, the best time to avoid the rains or how to get to the country and move around the area. <\/strong>We&#8217;ll also tell you what the official currency is, what language is spoken, what type of plug is used and all those little details that it&#8217;s best to bear in mind before you travel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_81 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Post content<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69efb5ffc346a\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #000000;color:#000000\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #000000;color:#000000\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69efb5ffc346a\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/#1-Prepare-your-travel-documents-for-Colombia\" >1.

Prepare your travel documents for Colombia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Step one, prepare your travel documents for Colombia. While citizens of many&nbsp;<strong>Latin American and European Union countries do not need to apply for a visa for short tourist stays of up to 90 days<\/strong>, all other countries will need to do so through the embassy, consulate or by filling out an online form. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Visa-free travellers:&nbsp;<\/strong>A visa is not required for short tourist stays of up to 90 days. It is advisable to check the specific policy for each nationality, as in some cases, this stay can be extended up to 180 days while in the country. You will need to present a valid passport, a return ticket and in some cases, proof of financial solvency or a letter of invitation may be required.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If your nationality requires a visa to enter Colombia<\/strong>, you will need to apply through the Colombian embassies or consulates in your country, or through their online form. The process can take a couple of weeks, so we recommend you do it in advance. Some visa categories allow multiple entries and can be valid for up to one year, although the maximum stay generally allowed is 180 days per year, which can be divided into periods of up to 90 days per entry. The fee is \u20ac40 for Europeans and Cubans and \u20ac82 for all other nationalities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div

However, <strong>w<\/strong>e<strong> recommend to travel during the dry season, from December to March and July to August.<\/strong> These months offer a more stable climate and less rainfall, ideal for exploring both the Caribbean beaches and the Andean mountains. However, the disadvantage of travelling during these months is that as it is high season, tourist destinations can be more crowded and prices for accommodation and flights can increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When planning your trip you should also take into account local festivals and celebrations, either to experience them or to avoid them. During these days, cities get crowded and although the atmosphere is unparalleled, you&#8217;ll also find it harder to find accommodation. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"aligncentre size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-attachment-id=\"31745\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/attachment\/trip-to-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,576\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"trip-to-Colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31745\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Plan a trip to Colombia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-find-out-how-to-get-to-colombia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Find-out-how-to-get-to-Colombia\"><\/span>3. Find out how to get to Colombia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The main gateway to Colombia is through El Dorado International Airport in Bogota<\/strong>, however, there are also many other airports that receive frequent international flights such as <strong>Jose Maria Cordova International Airport in Medellin, Rafael Nu\u00f1ez International Airport in Cartagena de Indias or Alfonso Bonilla Aragon International Airport in Palmira<\/strong> among many others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also possible to <strong>arrive by car from neighbouring countries such as Venezuela, Ecuador and Peru via the Pan-American Route or the Ruta del Sol<\/strong>, or by bus, an economical but slower option. The country&#8217;s main bus companies are Expreso Brasilia and Flota Magdalena. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to tour the country, <strong>our recommendation is to land in Bogota<\/strong> <strong>or Medellin,<\/strong> where flights are more frequent and cheaper, and get around with internal flights to make the best use of your time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once at your destination, <strong>public transport and taxis are cheap and will get you where you need to go<\/strong>. In cities, city buses cost between COP1,300 and COP2,300 and colectivos are a common option for short journeys, departing from terminals or main squares and costing up to USD10. Some cities such as Medellin also have metro and trams for around COP2,650 per trip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And <strong>in rural areas, the most common means of transport are motorbike taxis, Willys jeeps<\/strong> and &#8216;chivas&#8217; &#8211; rural buses. If you prefer, you can also hire organised excursions that will take care of the transport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When taking a taxi it is important to check that it is an official taxi<\/strong>. To be sure, you should book through your hotel or the airport. And bear in mind that <strong>you&#8217;ll have to negotiate the price before you get in. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"778\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"31746\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/attachment\/best-month-to-go-to-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/best-month-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=778%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"778,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"best-month-to-go-to-Colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/best-month-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=228%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/best-month-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=778%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"31746\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/best-month-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=778%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Colombia\" class=\"wp-image-31746\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/best-month-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?w=778&amp;ssl=1 778w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/best-month-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=228%2C300&amp;ssl=1 228w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/best-month-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=768%2C1011&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 778px) 100vw, 778px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"31747\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/attachment\/plan-a-trip-to-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/plan-a-trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"768,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"plan-a-trip-to-Colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/plan-a-trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/plan-a-trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"31747\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/plan-a-trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Colombia\" class=\"wp-image-31747\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/plan-a-trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?w=768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/plan-a-trip-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-find-the-accommodation-that-matches-your-expectations-to-enjoy-colombia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Find-the-accommodation-that-matches-your-expectations-to-enjoy-Colombia\"><\/span>4. Find the accommodation that matches your expectations to enjoy Colombia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Colombia offers a variety of accommodation options to suit all tastes and budgets. From boutique hotels in the main cities to hostels and eco-lodges in rural areas. Here are some recommendations to help you find the best accommodation: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Search in advance:<\/strong> You&#8217;ll be able to choose from more options and cheaper prices if you search in advance, especially during high season. With the Passporter App you will be able to make your hotel bookings directly through Booking in a convenient way and you will always have your accommodation information at hand. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Think about transport:<\/strong> When deciding where to stay, think about how you&#8217;re going to get around. In cities it may be more cost-effective to stay close to the city centre to save on transport, and in rural areas, if you don&#8217;t have your own vehicle, it&#8217;s best to stay in towns and villages so you can access public transport. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Take advantage of accommodation facilities<\/strong>: in some areas, such as the Caribbean, hotels take care of everything &#8211; transport, food, activities. It&#8217;s advisable to shop around and find out about hotel options. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"aligncentre size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-attachment-id=\"31748\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/attachment\/how-to-get-to-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,682\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"how-to-get-to-Colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=1024%2C682&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Colombia\" class=\"wp-image-31748\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-to-Colombia.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Plan a trip to Colombia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-where-and-what-to-eat-in-colombia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-Where-and-what-to-eat-in-Colombia\"><\/span>5. Where and what to eat in Colombia?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Colombian cuisine is rich and varied, and <strong>reflects a mix of indigenous, African and Spanish influences.<\/strong> Common ingredients include <strong>corn, beans, rice, plantain, cassava and a variety of meats<\/strong>, which combine to make hearty, flavourful dishes. We fell in love with the country&#8217;s gastronomy, and although we&#8217;ve prepared the most typical dishes here, we encourage you to try it all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Bandeja Paisa<\/strong>: an iconic dish that includes rice, beans, ground beef, chorizo, chicharron, fried egg, ripe plantain, arepa and avocado.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ajiaco<\/strong>: a typical Bogota soup made with chicken, three types of potatoes, corn and guasca, accompanied with capers, cream and avocado.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sancocho<\/strong>: is a thick broth with meat (chicken, fish or beef), plantain, yucca, potatoes, corn and other vegetables, usually accompanied by rice and avocado.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Arepas<\/strong>: corn tortillas that can be filled with cheese, meat, egg or butter. They are common food at every meal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Empanadas<\/strong>: corn dough stuffed with meat, potatoes or chicken, usually deep-fried, and often served with chilli.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Colombia is known worldwide for its <strong>high-quality coffee<\/strong>, they also have other typical drinks such as <strong>aguapanela con queso,<\/strong> a combination of panela water with chunks of cheese. This accompaniment is typical at breakfast and reflects the mix of sweet and savoury flavours in Colombian cuisine. In addition, fresh juices of exotic fruits such as lulo, passion fruit and guanabana are also common, refreshing and very popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"31749\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/attachment\/traveling-to-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/traveling-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"768,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"traveling-to-Colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/traveling-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/traveling-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"31749\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/traveling-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Colombia\" class=\"wp-image-31749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/traveling-to-Colombia.jpeg?w=768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/traveling-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">@gabrieldelrealv<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"31750\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/attachment\/when-to-go-to-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/when-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=819%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"819,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"when-to-go-to-Colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/when-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=240%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/when-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=819%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"31750\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/when-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=819%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Colombia\" class=\"wp-image-31750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/when-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?w=819&amp;ssl=1 819w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/when-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=240%2C300&amp;ssl=1 240w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/when-to-go-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=768%2C960&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">@thaffarias<br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-Choose-the-activities-you-want-to-do-in-Colombia\"><\/span>6.

Tips for planning a trip to Colombia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The currency of Colombia is the Colombian peso (COP). <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Although many establishments accept credit cards, it&#8217;s a good idea to carry some cash, especially for small purchases or in rural areas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Colombia, the A and B plug type is used, with a voltage of 110V and a frequency of 60Hz. Be sure to bring an adapter if your devices have different specifications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The official language is Spanish. Learning a few basic Spanish phrases can enhance your travel experience, especially outside of the big cities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It&#8217;s advisable to book flights and accommodation in advance, especially if you plan to visit during the peak tourist season (December-January and Easter). <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>During peak season, activities and excursions can fill up quickly, so consider booking in advance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find out about local festivals or special events that may coincide with your visit, such as Carnival in Barranquilla or the Flower Fair in Medellin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you decide to rent a car, remember to always check local traffic regulations and road conditions, especially in rural areas. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As in any tourist destination, it&#8217;s wise to keep an eye on your belongings, especially in crowded places and on public transport. Avoid displaying valuables. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The climate in Colombia can vary significantly depending on region and altitude. Wear clothing suitable for warmer climates on the coast and cooler climates in the mountainous areas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you wish to have mobile internet during your stay we recommend getting a<a href=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/esim-internet-colombia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Holafly eSIM with unlimited data.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protect yourself against medical emergencies: travel insured. <a href=\"https:\/\/heymondo.es\/? utm_medium=Affiliate&amp;utm_source=PASSPORTER&amp;utm_campaign=PRINCIPAL&amp;cod_discount=PASSPORTER&amp;ag_campaign=that-see-in-belgium&amp; agency=TmQ6oVUdKUtb48XOjACNv0Y0djarI5oI6wsdlQr5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Choose a good travel insurance, such as Mondo. <\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"aligncentre size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" data-attachment-id=\"31752\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-colombia\/attachment\/visa-to-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/visa-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=1024%2C680&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,680\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"visa-to-Colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/visa-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=300%2C199&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/visa-to-Colombia.jpeg?fit=1024%2C680&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/visa-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=1024%2C680&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/visa-to-Colombia.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/visa-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/visa-to-Colombia.jpeg?resize=768%2C510&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Plan a trip to Colombia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9-how-to-prepare-what-to-see-on-your-trip-to-colombia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9-How-to-prepare-what-to-see-on-your-trip-to-Colombia\"><\/span> 9.
