After spending four days, three nights here, I could say Jardin was one of the places in Colombia that I wouldn’t mind revisiting. It had a pleasant temperature, beautiful nature and a pretty colourful little town. Come to Jardin and ignore Guatapé for its giant rock with a beautiful view over the Reservoir and also Salento with its tallest palm tree in the world!

The queue to the check-in was already long when we arrived at the airport, and it was the first time we missed our flight in Colombia. However, since we’re flying with Avianca, it wasn’t a problem; they immediately arranged for us to fly with the next available flight at 2:40 pm for free of charge.

Another must-do activity while in Leticia is to visit the two neighbouring countries, Brazil and Peru. The trip can be completed in one day due to the close proximity between the two countries, and with no physical border between the places, you don’t have to worried about documentation when crossing over.

Our trip from Medellin to Guatape was super easy, and convenient, from the moment we stepped out of the plane and then getting the bus to Guatape. We took the bus from the airport to Nutibara, and because we stayed at Nutibara hotel, which was where the bus’s last stop from the airport, the location was perfect, only 2 minutes walk to the hotel.

Although we didn’t drive on our own but hired a car that comes with a driver from Keys Transportation, we were lucky because Dave was super friendly and knowledgeable.

Dave also went the extra mile by taking us to some of the exciting places, as well as stopping at Winn Dixie for us to do some grocery shopping!
