Overall excellent experience. We were group of 9. We had 2 guides. The main guide was local woman, very nice but was non english speaking. 2nd guide was a college student who acted as a translator and had great attitude. Prior to the trip , we did not have lot of information about how to prepare for the trip from the organizers. We went with whats on the internet which was useful. Ask for a english speaking guide if possible. Impulse travel picked us up from Santa Marta and generally took good care of us. The trip is moderately difficult but made more difficult due to extreme humidity and heat. It was great that we started early in the day to avoid the peak temperatures. Food provided was clean, healthy and nutritious. Our cook was excellent. We were glad we hired a mule to carry extra weight for us since we were all 50+ and were cautious about our back. The trek to Ciudad Perdida was totally worth it and the view was 10 times better than pictures. The 1200 steps in the end were hard but manageable to climb up. Coming down was dangerous and slippery. Accommodations at the camp were comfy and we were glad to have mosquito nets. Cold Showers and toilets were clean. Memorable experience even though it was in the remote part of Colombia and most people don't know about this hike. Thank you Impulse travel...

We are thrilled that your group had a memorable experience and enjoyed the food, the views, and the care provided by our team. Regarding your feedback on preparation, we'll make sure to double-check our communication channels, as we usually share a day-by-day itinerary and packing list via WhatsApp prior to departure to ensure everyone feels ready.

Gildardo provided an excellent tour of the Bogota highlights. He is very knowledgeable and eager to share the history and culture of Colombia. He and the driver were right on time and the two coordinated meet up locations very well so the van was always ready to take us to the next site. His tour was perfect for a first time visit to the city. Thanks Gigio.

A fascinating tour of the Barrio and hearing peoples’ experiences first hand. A must do when in Bogota.

Thank you so much for joining us! We’re glad you enjoyed the Breaking Borders tour. For us, sharing the authentic stories of the Barrio Egipto community is the most powerful way to show the transformation of Bogotá. Your visit directly supports these local leaders, and we truly appreciate your recommendation!

Our trip to Colombia was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and this was made possible thanks to Impulse Travel and your amazing team! From the very beginning, Victor and Juliana provided all the information we needed to plan a journey tailored to our preferences. They patiently organized every detail of our itinerary, ensuring nothing was left to chance. During the trip, everything worked seamlessly—every transfer, every activity, every arrangement. The guides were not only knowledgeable but also warm and friendly, making each experience unforgettable. The activities we enjoyed were exceptional, and our accommodations were consistently comfortable and well-chosen across all destinations. Colombia will forever hold a special place in our hearts—not only for its breathtaking landscapes and vibrant culture but above all for its welcoming and hospitable people. Thank you for turning our dream into reality!

Impulse Travel - Colombia Impulse travel, and specifically Felipe Cadena, organized a three-week trip for me and my 82-year-old mother through Colombia. What a great job! - he answered dozens of questions very promptly and patiently. - gave suggestions on the itinerary based on our specific needs and abilities (greatly appreciated!). - arranged all the details in this long and complicated itinerary. - stayed in touch throughout the whole trip allowing and taking care of a couple of small adjustments. What we found particularly IMPRESSIVE and UNIQUE was: - Felipe's engagement of LOCAL people and his effort to have us interact and learn about local/indigenous people, history and culture of each area we visited. - we actually got a cost listing for our trip!!! Now, that makes you feel full transparency and honesty on the part of the company and that endears them to you, for sure. We were well taken care of, felt safe, treated individually, and all our guides/drivers/translators were very considerate, punctual and cordial. Five stars for Felipe and his team. Thank you from Joanna and Marta

Traveling through Colombia with Impulse was extraordinary. They are knowledgeable, funny, well prepared and know all the best places typically reserved for locals. Their insight into the culture and history of the country grew my appreciation for Colombia to a depth I never could have imagined. The music, the food, the people - thank you, Impulse, for broadening my perspective in such a fun and enjoyable way!

What an amazing group of people that work for Impulse Travel! They take such good care of all the details, the local connections they have are incredible, they are very good on preparing the travelers for their trip + very accommodating when requested for something specific. I did my 40th bday trip with them and the Sounds of Colombia itinerary and it was one of the best trips of my life! It is amazing to travel with Gregorio Uribe and all his amazing knowledge and connections of great musicians around Colombia. Rodrigo and Juli also were very kind to accommodate when I asked if we could play Tejo (the amazing Colombia sport/game). I absolutely love the positive impact that trip had in the communities, as we only stayed on local owned places, ate incredible food made by the communities we visited and worked with local guides. Incredible! It was a very fun, educational and transformative trip! Highly recommend!
