Arrival day. Meet at Donkey Sunrise Basecamp at your leisure [we can organize airport pick-ups as needed]. Get a tour introduction, and meet the other riders over a cold beer and family-style dinner prior to the adventure ahead! Accommodations at our guesthouse for the night.
DAY 2-8
We will depart from Donkey Sunrise Basecamp after a hot breakfast and local coffee. We will experience multiple climates today, as the ride takes us through the beautiful lush coffee region of Eje Cafetero, where we will get to sample some of the goods and take a tour of a plantation!
As we hit the winding roads through 2 mountain ranges, we will get views of the snow-capped peaks of Nevada del Tolima! Here we get deeper into Colombian culture as we ride through the old colonial towns of the mountains.
We emerge from the East Andes onto the vast tropical planes and crystal clear rivers of east Colombia. experience the cowboy culture of the llanos with traditional smoked meats and the Joropo dancing rooted in the region. Soak in some of the most beautiful sunsets in Colombia as we share stories over great food in good company!
DAY 9
