A Destination for All Seasons nestled on the northern coast of South America near the equator, Colombia is blessed with a tropical climate that is equally pleasant year round. Nearly 365 days of sunshine combine with mild nights for weather you can count on. With shoreline on both the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea, Colombia also boasts beautiful natural landscapes with topography that ranges from stunning white-sand beaches to the tallest seaside snow-capped peak in the world. Accommodations like no other: from luxurious new beachside resorts to a colonial-era convent transformed to a boutique hotel brimming with historic ambiance or thatch-roofed traditional Tayrona Indianan dwellings in the heart of the jungle, Colombia offers memorable accommodations for every taste. Thousands of sparkling new hotel rooms have been built in recent years with many internationally recognized brands now having a presence in Colombia, including InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, Hilton, Sheraton, Hyatt, Marriott, Radisson and Crowne Plaza. Studies show that room rates, as well as food and beverage costs, at 4- and 5-Star luxury hotels in Colombia run significantly below comparable 4-Star luxury hotels elsewhere. Colombia has been acknowledged as one of the preferred locations in the region for business tourism thanks to its complete hotel accommodations and technological infrastructure, its excellent congress, fair and exhibition centers, the weather variety within the country and the warmth and kindness of its people. The fairs, trade exhibits, congresses, conferences and business activities in the country can be accompanied by leisure tourism and golfing, which all together make Colombia the perfect destination for any of your M.I.C.E. needs.

Nevertheless, Bogotá has a unique and modern system of transportation called Transmilenio, considered a model for alleviating transportation problems in other major Latin American cities. Transmilenio works like a metro, with stations to pick up and drop off passengers, in a circular route in specially reserved bus lanes. In Medellin the Metro system is one of the best in Latin America. Taxis Taxis are readily available at airports, hotels, restaurants, shopping centers, and the usual places. Although taxis are more expensive than buses, they remain a very comfortable and economical way to get around the city quickly and easily. Venues For Group Events The Fine Arts Theater in Bogota 100 - 1,000 guests The Fine Arts Theater is an art stage to perceive, hear, think, theorize, learn and create. The theater has a capacity for 1,000 people, holding artistic productions of the highest quality including music, drama, dance, plastic arts, academic and literary expressions. All of the above, combining word, movement, sound, color, creativity and entertainment. The theater facilities are appropriate for the most ambitious artistic productions. Sound systems, lighting and stage machinery have been carefully taken care of, becoming thus the perfect complement for the excellent acoustics of the auditorium. The International Business and Exhibition Center 150 - 6,000 guests Corferias - The International Business and Exhibition Center of Bogota, is the most complete of the capital. This beautiful park has a large, modern and multi-functional hall of 15,500 sqm/166,857 sqft exhibition area, a VIP lounge, 6 conference rooms, 9 free areas and 23 pavilions. Orquideorama in Medellin 100 - 1,000 guests Colombia is crazy about this gorgeous botanical garden in Medellin, Colombia that was renovated in 2008. The Orquideorama is an organically expanding wooden mesh-work of modular “flower-tree” structures that weaves its way through the garden’s heart. Available for private events and conventions. General Information Bogota A cosmopolitan city shinning with culture and nightlife, located on a high plateau in the Andes Mountains, Bogotá is the capital of Colombia and also its most populous city with more than 7 million inhabitants. It is a cosmopolitan metropolis that intertwines modern architecture with large open spaces, an efficient mass transport system. Declared a World Book Capital in 2007, Bogotá is known both for its world-class museums and trendy nightlife. Cartagena de Indias Founded in 1533 on a wide sheltered harbor on the Caribbean Coast, Cartagena de Indias was once one of the richest ports in the New World. The high, salt-bleached walls that circumscribe its Old City were built to thwart pirates and privateers during the height of the Spanish colonial era in the 1600s. Now a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Old City preserves the rich history and culture of days gone by. Medellin The “City of Eternal Spring” lies in the Valley of Aburrá and is distinguished by the abundant plazas, parks and gorgeous flowers that gave the city its nickname. It is the country’s second most important city, surrounded by coffee haciendas and the Andes Mountains. Cali Framed by the Pacific Ocean and sugar cane fields, Santiago de Calí is known as the “World Capital of Salsa” and is famous for its fiestas, street partying and dancing at salsa clubs. It is one of the major economic and industrial centers of the country and offers a plethora of museums, theaters, dance, ballet, arts and historical sites. The Coffee Triangle The three cities that form the Café Triangle – Armenia, Pereira and Manizales – are known for their beautiful landscapes and friendly people. It is a land of coffee haciendas, trails, waterfalls, valleys, cloud forests and high alpine plateaus. Santa Marta The oldest city in South America with an unrivaled architectural heritage is best known today as an adventure destination. This is the land of the Arhuaco and the Kogui aboriginal tribes that resisted colonization. It is also the land of Aracataca – the birthplace of Nobel Prize winner Gabrial García Márques – and of Liberator Simón Bolívar, whose remains are preserved at his estate on the outskirts of the city. Santander Adventures galore - Colombia’s best site for paragliding (10-minute flights), zip-lines that let you fly for nearly 60 m/200 ft, and a wet rappelling descent 65 m/215 ft down one of the best waterfalls in Santander - the Salto del Cañaveralito. Experience rafting on the Fonce River, caving in the Cueva del Indio, taking a tour on a chiva bus to the towns of Floridablanca, San Gil, Girón and “the prettiest town in Colombia” - Barichara. Places Of Interest Museums in Bogota Home to more than 40 museums, Bogotá is ideal as a cultural incentive destination. The Museo Nacional, with its imposing stone-walled facade, is one of the oldest museums on the American continent and now counts some 20,000 pieces of art among its collection. The world’s most important fine metalworking collection is housed in the Museo del Oro, or Gold Museum. It contains more than 34,000 original gold pieces, and 20,000 objects representing diverse pre-Columbian cultures. Other world-renowned collections of art, history, archeology, religion, architecture, and photography often serve as the perfect backdrop for a theme party. La Candelaria: A Bohemian Neighborhood Bogota’s most Bohemian section, this picturesque section of the city is also its historic, cultural, artistic and intellectual center. Notable for its steep streets and large colonial houses with tile roofs and wide eaves, it lies at the foothills of a tall peak called Cerro de Monserrate. Among the historically significant structures located in this neighborhood are: City Hall, the Presidential House, the Cardinal’s Palace, the Courts, the Congress and many Ministries. A circuit of museums, restaurants and beautiful historic sites make touring this neighborhood a must. The Zipaquirá Salt Cathedral Hidden beneath the plains and hills of a little town with narrow streets is one of the marvels of Colombia: the Salt Dome of Zipaquirá, one of the largest salt deposits in the world. For the Muisca indigenous group that inhabited the area, salt was the main means of barter. Today, it produces half of the country’s salt. Visitors to the site – which has been called a "Jewel of Modern Architecture" and is a popular place for pilgrimages in the country – can explore the Miner’s Route (with miners’ helmet, light and gloves included): the Stations of the Cross, the descent ramp, chorus and the balconies, the Nartex Complex and the Great Miners’ Chamber. Plaza Botero in Medellin Boasting 23 sculptures, this is the world’s largest public exhibit of works by Fernando Botero. The Colombian-born artist’s fame skyrocketed when two of his corpulent sculptures were selected as focal points of the lobby of the new Time-Warner Center on New York City’s Columbus Circle. Pueblito Paisa – Cerro Nutibara The top of Nutibara hill in Medellin, offers one of the best panoramic views of the city. Is a replica of an early 20th century village, stands atop the hill offering visitors a glimpse of a traditional chapel, school, city hall, parish house, cigar and liquor store, barber shop, drugstore, a two-story house and a handicrafts shop. Golf Courses Colombia is number 3 in Latin America for the number of golf courses, as an international golf destination, Colombia offers more than 50 diverse and challenging courses for its visitors considered by many as the best golf courses in Latin America. These courses were created in magical and exotic settings by famous international designers such as Robert Trent Jones, Gary Player, Mark Mahannah and Jack Nicklaus. Aside from their singular beauty, they offer excellent design and impeccable maintenance. Colombia / Bogota BOGOTA MARRIOTT HOTEL Country Rating 5* Av.
