South America's best kept secret is out! The Magdalena River - the heart of Colombia - is now navigable by river cruise! AmaWaterways, well-known and respected for river cruising in Europe, Asia and Africa, added another exciting cruise itinerary in the Spring of 2025 and it will have you enjoying Colombian rhythms every night!
From visiting small mostly unexplored towns and meeting locals, learning about exotic fruits, eating local and international delicious cuisine, learning about artisanal crafts, enjoying amazing mural art, seeing traditional dance performances, maybe even meeting a medicine man, all while sleeping in luxurious airconditioned state rooms. The best part of it all: only 60 guests can sail on either the AmaMagdalena or AmaMelodia ship, which makes this river cruise the best way to explore the colorful country of Colombia. And yes, it's Colombia with an 'o'.
Happy to help you with planning your next vacation to Colombia!
