Cartagena de Indias is the undisputed queen of the Caribbean coast, a historic city of superbly preserved beauty lying within an impressive 13km of centuries-old colonial stone walls. Cartagena's Old Town is a Unesco World Heritage Site – a maze of cobbled alleys, balconies covered in bougainvillea, and massive churches that cast their shadows across leafy plazas. A city that welcomes everyone and seizes you in its captivating grip, Cartagena has developed a reputation as one of the Caribbean’s most gay-friendly destinations.

Bogota is a densely populated urban sprawl nestled amongst some of the most impressive mountain ranges in the world and boasting a deeply embedded and fascinating culture.
Modern Bogota is known for its rich cultural heritage, fantastic culinary scene and burgeoning arts districts.
The gay scene in Bogota is largely focused around the upmarket and recently regenerated area of Chapinero. The district is home to more than 100 gay bars, clubs and shops and evidence of the city’s vibrant LGBT+ community can be seen throughout. Bogota is becoming increasingly known as a hub of gay culture and community in South America and gay travelers are flocking to experience all that this unique and diverse city has to offer.
