RELAX

For a blissful getaway, rejuvenate in the serene.  Do absolutely nothing as you soak up the sun and wallow in velvet sands and azure waters as calm envelops.  Or embrace nature’s most alluring settings on a hike up majestic peaks and lush foliage.  Kayak, windsurf, snorkel, water bike, swim with dolphins, deep sea or reef fish – activities designed exclusively for you.

 

CARTAGENA, COLOMBIA – Beat the end of summer blues and hold onto that tan with a getaway to Cartagena, Colombia, an alluring setting where historic charm meets culturally rich, contemporary life.  Luxuriate in the crystalline waters and coral reefs of Islas del Rosario.  Fish, scuba dive, snorkel, windsurf, kite surf, jet ski and sea kayak.  Or simply soak up the sun on sugared sand beaches that greet the turquoise of the Caribbean. Relax with a mud massage 15meters above ground in the crater of El Totumo volcano.  Melt while savoring delectable ceviche.  Wander cobbled streets in the UNESCO walled old town awash with color, and admire the balconies of houses festooned with flowers and colorful plants wafting the scent of jasmine. For the most stunning city views, head up the Hill of La Popa to Convento de la Popa, a former barracks turned convent.  And visit our favorite well-preserved sites of the storied Palacio de la Inquisicion and El Castillo de San Felipe de Borajas, a 16^th century fortress, a marvel of military engineering.   Coffee lovers, add on a two night extension in Colombia’s coffee triangle for an exclusive coffee plantation tour and cup of tinto.
