Can’t decide between a rural, coastal or urban experience for your next vacation? With enough time in kid-friendly Colombia, you can do all three! Colorful Cartagena is a visually stunning city that strikes the right balance between a laid-back vibe and urban energy. From there, it’s merely a boat ride away to Colombia’s beaches, or plan a farm stay and enjoy the country’s breathtaking coffee-growing region. Accommodations range from monasteries converted into luxury hotels to kid-friendly farms with lots of hands-on agricultural experiences for guests of all ages.

Our Happy Travelers
"Chelsea was fantastic! The itinerary she put together for us and her careful planning really changed the way we want to travel going forward. The days were so full with terrific experiences, our guides were phenomenal (we'd like to host them when they come to the US) and the travel logistics were so easy. This was an outstanding trip."

–Powers Family Trip

"We loved our trip so much. Overall, we had the best experience and would absolutely recommend Cartegena and Ciao Bambino to our friends. In fact, I already have and can't wait to plan another trip!"

–Chisholm Family Colombia Trip

"We greatly enjoyed our trip and were very pleased with the accommodations. We are excited to return to South America and explore other areas. We were happy with the activities planned and felt it was very family-friendly."

–Makk Family Colombia Trip

"Katie planned the perfect trip. We all agree it was the best trip we've had, and the hotels were some of the best we've stayed in. We found that with a baby, it was only possible to get through about half of the suggested itinerary each day, which was great because it gave us options. We took time each night to debate what we would do the next day, and really enjoyed having those possibilities laid out for us.​"

–Beck Family Trip

"We had a fantastic trip. So many thanks for your help in putting this together."

–Lange Family Trip

"Katie went above & beyond for our family. We had a spectacular trip. I appreciate how Katie understood our needs as a family and gave me realistic feedback. The places where we stayed were exactly what I was looking for. I valued Katie’s patience with me as I was building my trip and deciding what exactly we were looking for as a family. She was available for input whenever needed and I would definitely use her and Ciao Bambino again."
