Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta

We'll soon be offering a nature reserve in the Sierra Nevada Mountains about two hours from Santa Marta. You can see all sorts of species, including endangered ones. From tiny, bright coloured frogs to endemic bird species, to brilliant toucans and hummingbirds, this is a nature-lover's paradise!

It´s an incredible place - from about 3000 metres altitude, you can watch the sun set over the Caribbean! How´s that for a view?

Getting there is quite an adventure, too. I saw a 1954 truck carrying crude oil get stuck in a ditch. The truck may be 50 years old, but it's still running here! My driver got out to help the big ol' truck that looked like something out of the Pixar movie Cars, and the truck was on his way. The photo at the left shows the two drives giving their thumbs up. When you live that far in the middle of nowhere, everyone knows each other!

More info soon!
