Where the Llanos meet the Amazon
...two extraordinary destinations await
|
Caño Cristales - the rainbow river
Imagine a river of vibrant reds, greens, blues, pinks, purples and yellows, a river whose algae is so striking in colours and waters so clear, that it seems like straight out of a fantasy movie. Curious rock formations draw through the rivers of the area, and natural swimming pools and waterfalls complete the fantasy. Add colorful bird species and lush jungles framing the scenes and you get what some have called "the world's most beautiful river" or "rainbow river" in the mystical Sierra de la Macarena. Visiting Caño Cristales equals a trip to wonderland.

Guaviare - a forgotten world
Once a conflict-ridden area, the small department of Guaviare has been able to preserve extraordinary treasures: virgin Amazon jungles teeming with primates, birdlife and other wildlife including tapirs and river dolphins, colourful rivers that resemble Caño Cristales, and caves and huge rock walls deep in the jungle covered with ancient paintings of over 7000 years. Guaviare invites for an off-the-beaten-path adventure featuring jungles, dirt roads, Indiana-Jonesque caves, rock formations and mysteries, wild rivers and play in the water with the world's friendliest mammals: pink dolphins.
