Overview
The River House Experience combines history, nature, tranquility, hiking, road trip, and fun. An important part of the local 'paisa' lifestyle is the 'finca' culture, or country houses, being in nature, disconnecting from the city noise, enjoying a drink and some great food, listening to the birds singing. This region also shows us great colonial heritage which is not easy to find anymore in modern-day Colombia. The trip is completely private and customized, travelers can modify the tour as they like. Our transportation is a comfortable SUV with AC. Colombia Bliss also provides our guests a personalized drone footage of the trip, so visitors will have this unforgettable memory recorded.
