In-the-know travelers across the continent are raving about Colombia, and finally, there's a guidebook with the information you need to safely explore it. VIVA hired a team of journalists with several years of combined on-the-ground experience in Colombia. Their mission: to produce the most comprehensive, accurate guidebook available, no matter what your destination or budget. Comprehensive...Whether you're exploring the colonial streets of Cartagena, trekking in the rainforest to La Ciudad Perdida (the Lost City), or dancing through the night in the salsatecas of Bogota, this book is packed with all the information you'll need to get the most out of your trip to Colombia. Safe...The vast majority of Colombia's territory has become quite safe for travelers in recent years, and security is steadily improving across the country. We'll tell you where you can go safely -- we'll also let you know what areas are still too dangerous for travelers. With security risks changing constantly, VIVA is the only guidebook that can keep the pace. Up-to-date...This Version 1.1 of V!VA Travel Guides Colombia, released in January 2009 contains security updates and fixes to maps.
VIVA updates their guidebooks continually and prints books "on demand", assuring you have the most accurate, up-to-date information, and making it the world's most up-to-date guidebook series. Every entry is "time stamped" with the last time it was modified, so you can travel informed. Breaking news, travel advisories and updates are also available on the vivatravelguides.com website. Your input and travel wisdom is welcome. Submit new information, and your tips may appear in the next edition of the book. V!VA Travel Guides are for travelers who want a deep understanding of their destination before they go, feel a meaningful connection to the places and people they visit, and return home feeling enriched and wanting to share their experiences with others. Most bookstores don't stock VIVA's books. By the time they sit on store shelves for a few months, there's already a new edition available. You'll have to buy this book online, or ask your bookstore to order it. Raves about VIVA Travel Guides Colombia "We have many travelers coming in to look for information about Colombia.
