Embark on an unforgettable voyage through the heart of Colombia, where every bend of the magnificent Magdalena River reveals a new chapter in the country’s rich cultural story. This immersive journey begins in Cartagena, where guests explore the vibrant neighbourhood of Getsemaní — a kaleidoscope of colour, creativity, and Caribbean flair. In Palenque, the first free city in the Americas, travellers are welcomed with a powerful cultural experience steeped in resilience and rhythm, before continuing to Calamar for a historic tour led by the passionate and knowledgeable Paola. The adventure continues in Magangué with a serene nature excursion, followed by an exclusive open-air jazz performance in the atmospheric town of Mompox — a UNESCO World Heritage Site that feels frozen in time. Guests spend two full days in Mompox, delving deeper into its colonial charm with a guided walking tour, a tuk tuk ride through its cobbled streets, and a hands-on filigree workshop showcasing the town’s famed artisanal craft. Scenic cruising offers moments of reflection before an exclusive cumbia performance brings the riverbanks to life with music and movement. In Santa Bárbara de Pinto, travellers are treated to a heart-warming encounter with local traditions, followed by a tranquil cruise to Sitio Nuevo. There, a village tour offers insight into daily life along the river, before the journey culminates in Barranquilla with a spectacular private “Carnaval” celebration — a dazzling finale of colour, dance, and joy. From the rhythms of cumbia and vallenato to the warmth of riverside communities, this cruise is a celebration of Colombia’s soul — a journey that stirs the senses and leaves a lasting impression.
