Has anyone been to Colombia recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Transport tips
I was there a while back and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

I was there in January and prices were about average. Spent about $100/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.
