Aracanto

Aracanto is a Boutique agency specialized in designing and planning extraordinary Bespoke itineraries to Colombia. We were born in Colombia and watched how this country has evolved from a dangerous destination to a safe, welcoming and upcoming destination. We are therefore extremely passionate to be part of our country's tourism resurgence and to welcome you to our home country. We provide superb customer service, we design unforgettable Colombian trips and experiences, and we treat each of our travelers as a VIP Client, and a special guest.

We immerse ourselves in the newest and greatest spots throughout Colombia every day. Trust a team that’s spent thousands of hours planning trips to Colombia, visiting every place, trying all experiences, and choosing the best. We don’t believe one size fits all and design your trip just for you. We’re a small, family company and choose to work with a small number of clients at a time in order to give each trip the time and attention it deserves.

Get in touch with us if you want to visit Colombia, and discover amazing places like Cartagena's charming old city, the renowned Colombian coffee region, the famous city of Medellin, the fascinating Amazon jungle and the country's capital Bogota. Come and see pink dolphins and humpback whales, learn about the world of coffee at its source, see how Medellin has progressed from one of the most dangerous cities to an incredible cultural hub, party with Colombians and practice your salsa and reggaeton moves, get lost in forest and jungles, relax at the beach, go on a diving excursion, visit the town of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and enjoy exotic drinks, fruits and exquisite local and Latin food.

We look forward to meeting you soon!

We especially loved the cooking class with Cristina, fishing in the mangroves, tubing, and the Minca waterfall. Our hotels were great as well. And all of the food recommendations were amazing.

As far as our private guides, Ana was great with the kids and gave an informative tour of the walled city. She shared helpful background about her own experiences as well.

Jorge helped us understand a lot about the culture in the northern Caribbean region. Above all, the Indigenous aspect really stands out—it’s something that speaks volumes about this country with so much diversity.

We will likely use KimKim again.
