Liquid Rainbows at Cano Cristales with Galavanta Colombia!



One of the Natural Wonders in Colombia not to be missed! Colombia’s already incredible biodiversity gets even more marvelous in July and September, as migratory patterns and biological phenomena start their peak season. Read on and start planning now to catch these sights at Liquid Rainbows at Cano Cristales!


Here are the details:

What? A crystal clear river in Southern Colombia that shows off its multicolored flora

When? July - October to see the red hues at their most brilliant.

How? 90 minute flight from Bogota to La Macarena

From this small airport guests will be transported to La Manigua Lodge, where they will be hosted by passionate biologist Juan Pablo. He will show the amazing endemic aquatic plant that covers the river bed, making this area the place of legends, and take guests on more specialized expeditions and experiences beyond the rainbow river trail. Galavanta recommends a 2-night stay, as then guests can not only explore Caño Cristales, but also visit the mysterious Cities of Stone, enjoy an aquatic safari down the Guayabero River in search of pink dolphins, and explore the stunning landscapes via horseback. To go the extra mile, have guests take a private charter directly from Caño Cristales to Los Llanos, just 1 hour away, to experience the Colombian savannahs and the work chants of llanero cowboys, declared an intangible cultural heritage by UNESCO.
