PRIVATE GROUPS: *Please see our Private Group Tours explanation page , and  let us know when you want to explore Colombia!

Back when RIDE Adventures first did its exploration work and started offering motorcycle tours & rentals in Colombia back in 2010, we were getting comments like "are you guys crazy? Who wants to get shot or held hostage by the drug cartels?!!?"

Years have passed though, and plenty of our happy Customers have returned home from Colombia (and the rest of South America) safe and healthy with nothing but good things to say about the people and places they've encountered. As is true with riding or exploring almost any part of the world, if you don't go "looking for trouble," you'd have to be pretty unlucky to find it. This fact remains especially true in Colombia, where the proud people want to show us what they have done to forge change from what was a dark and dangerous history of cartel rule.

Remember that during cold northern winters, Colombia's position just above the equator makes for a fantastic warm-weather getaway and adventure riding opportunity. Riders must book these trips well in advance though, as the word gets out more each year: Yes, it's safe to RIDE in Colombia!

Alex Spanos

My wife and I recently returned from a trip to Colombia. This was our first time traveling to South America, and after learning about Colombia Motorcycle Adventures through a podcast (Adventure Rider Radio), I thought that the 7 - Day Perfect Loop Coffee Region Tour sounded like a great way to introduce ourselves to motorcycle travel in Colombia. In every way, Jeff and his staff met or exceeded our expectations. Jeff was gracious, accommodating, easy to work with, and helpful. Our guides, Carlos and Natalia, were wonderful. The route was beautiful, often challenging (road and traffic conditions, weather, etc...) but never boring. Our bike, a Honda XRE 300, was in perfect condition. We rode two-up on this little bike, and although it would have been nice to have a bit more power at times, it was perfectly adequate and very easy to ride. All in all, our experience was stellar. If you are considering a trip to Colombia and want to include motorcycles in your adventure - contact Jeff today. You will not be disappointed.

IS COLOMBIA SAFE?

The answer is a resounding YES. Colombia is exactly the opposite of what Netflix Narcos series portrays. People have to realize that Pablo Escobar was killed three decades ago. We've led hundreds of tours around the country and have never had any problems with security. 

Anthony Bourdain summed it up perfectly:

"If you want to find bad people in Colombia, you can surely find them, as you could in New York or Los Angeles. But nowhere have my crew and I been treated better or with more kindness and generosity. I'd bring my family on vacation there in a heartbeat. And hope to soon. As I said before: Colombians are proud. Let them show you what they are proud of."

Day 1 /  Arrival in Medellin

Recommended Hotel:

Inntu hotel laureles ​.

FoodIcon.png

Restaurant:

Courtesy airport pickup: Upon arrival at the José María Córdova International Airport, a driver will be waiting for you at the arrivals area holding a sign with your name and wearing a fluorescent shirt for easy identification. They will then take you directly to the Inntu Hotel in the Laureles neighborhood.

First Night Hotel Stay: The Inntu Hotel is located in the trendy Laureles neighborhood of Medellin, a vibrant area known for its tree-lined streets, outdoor cafes, and eclectic mix of restaurants and bars. The hotel itself is a contemporary, eco-friendly property that offers guests a comfortable and stylish stay, with amenities such as a rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the city, a fitness center, and a restaurant serving organic cuisine. The neighborhood is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, offering a lively and authentic Medellin experience with plenty of opportunities for exploring, shopping, and dining. Its central location also makes it an ideal base for visitors to explore other areas of the city, with easy access to major attractions.

Day 2 / Medellin to S ó nson

Recommended  Activities:

Museo de los abuelos, casa de la cultura, paramo de sonson.

This is going to be an interesting trip. Today we ride to the former guerilla conflict zone of Sonson. Sonson has been off-limits for decades due to guerilla activity. Although it's safe now there is very little information on the internet about the area. Consequently, it’s untouched by tourism which makes it the perfect place to get an authentic taste of Colombia. 

The ride to Sonson is great. One of the best things about this ride is the miles and miles of exciting twists and turns. Ups, downs, ascending curves, descending curves, increasing radius curves, decreasing radius curves. You’re going to get a ton of riding experience on just this one road. The pavement here is in good shape and as is the case in lots of areas in the countryside, there is very little traffic.

Midway we’re going to stop off at Luisa’s house and have a cup of local coffee called tinto. If you like kids you’ll be delighted to meet her twin toddlers. Tourists never stop here and you’ll see how happy she is to talk with us. Besides being a fun way to connect with the locals, it's a way to directly support a family business.

The town of Sonson is located at a high elevation but we’re going to climb even higher. The Paramo de Sonson is a lookout point that stands at over 10,000ft in elevation. The lookout has a scenic view of the fog rolling across the cloud forest and nearby valley. By now it will be late afternoon and we’ll head back to town to check in to our hotel and grab a pizza and a beer. 

We stay at the El Tesoro hotel located on the main square. This is a 200-year-old mansion that has been converted into a unique hotel. Unlike other hotels, this one hasn't been updated and still retains its original charm. In addition, the hotel is somewhat of a museum and is filled with an eclectic collection of antiques. Looking over everything will keep you captivated for hours. 

Located next door to the hotel is a great pizza restaurant. From the second-story balcony, we can enjoy a brick oven pizza while people-watching on the main square. Located at 8,100ft you’ll want to bring a jacket because it's going to be cold at night.

Day 3 / S ó nson to Pensilvania

Recommended hotel :, colina plaza, pensilvania parking​, paz y flora cafe.

Police and Kevin.jpg

The road from Sonson is unpaved but in good condition. Almost as soon as we leave Sonson we have to stop to take photos of the expansive valley right outside of town. The rest of the ride consists of windy roads and spectacular views of the surrounding coffee and sugarcane plantations. In the middle of the trip, we drop into a warm valley and cross a bridge over a white water river before winding back into the mountains on the other side. Just before we arrive in town, there's a panoramic view of the town precariously sitting on the top of a hill. Once we arrive, we feel like you have somehow discovered a special place that hardly any other foreigner has set eyes upon. 

Day 4 / Pensilvania to Salamina

Salamina highs, salamina parking, don fe rmin gastro bar ​, pizza estadio, cafe el polo.

Salamina is Colombia's best-kept secret. Tucked away in a far off corner of the coffee region, the beauty of Salamina is a sight to behold. The town itself is situated on the peak of a mountain, with entire streets sometimes appearing as if they are about to slide off the side of the mountain. Once we enter the town, we see why it has earned national heritage status. Houses climb the sloping streets with each one seeming determined to outdo its neighbors. Elaborate woodworking takes the form of intricately decorated doors, windows, balconies, and zócalos (the distinct lower sections of the whitewashed facades). It's hard to walk the streets of Salamina without constantly looking upward at the flower-filled balconies.

A gorgeous bronze basin fountain made in Paris sits in the central plaza surrounded by tall trees and benches. In 1900 the fountain was brought to town on the back of ox and mules. Since then it has become a symbol of the region. There are also various restaurants surrounding the main square where you can try typical local dishes, including the local favorite of steamed eggs (Huevos al Vapor), made with the help of an espresso machine. 

One of the nicer boutique options in Salamina is the Salamina Highs hotel. Formerly a coffee hacienda, the owners have beautifully restored the house and converted it into a charming boutique hotel. The property is complete with spacious rooms, king-sized beds, and a beautiful courtyard with jasmine trees and a jacuzzi. The hotel has a perfect location and is only a two-minute walk from the main square.

Day 5 / Salamina to Manizales

Termales del otoño, termales del ruiz, glamping leon dormido, nevado ruiz     , termales el sifon, cascada del rio asufrado, laguna negra, valle de frailejon.

Nevado de Ruiz

Today takes us to the famous Nevado Ruiz Volcano. Colombia is part of the Ring of Fire, a 40,000 kilometer (24,900 miles) long string of volcanoes that forms a horseshoe-shaped ring around the edge of the Pacific Ocean. This Ring of Fire contains 75% of the world's volcanoes and 90% of its earthquakes with Colombia itself being home to 23 volcanoes, of which 19 are considered active. Conveniently located right in the heart of the coffee region is Nevado Ruiz stratovolcano which reaches a staggering height of 5,311m (17,424ft)

Rides around the Nevado del Ruiz are often touted as “The best rides in Colombia.” You’ll ride up through the clouds until arriving in a high altitude tundra known as Paramo. Sitting at 13,000ft you will be surrounded by ancient plants that look a lot like cactus. Called frailejones these plants are actually related to sunflowers and are over 150 years old. Although you are at a high altitude the temperatures aren’t freezing and the cool air feels more like a sunny day in the Swiss Alps than sitting on a stratovolcano on the equator. 

Although beautiful, Nevado Ruiz was the cause of one of the most devastating events in Colombian history.  On November 13, 1985, after ignoring evacuation warnings from geologists, the Nevado del Ruiz erupted. The intense heat of the eruption melted the volcano's ice caps producing high-speed avalanches of mud, water, and debris (called lahars) that rushed down the side of the mountain destroying the town of Armero and claiming the lives of 23,080 of its residents.

Day 6 /   Local Exploration

Hummingbirds and Nevado Ruiz or Coffee Farm Visi t

Termales del Otoñ o ​

Recommended ac tivities:, h ummingbird experience.

Termales del Ruiz Hotel Whatever you do, don’t even think of coming down from the volcano without visiting the Termales del Ruiz Hotel, one of the few hotels actually located on the side of an active volcano. Located amid stunning landscapes at 3500masl (11,500ft), this glorious thermal-bath complex is the place to go to for total relaxation. The ride to get here is just as good. Visiting this hotel means navigating an off-road route that takes you from the relatively low altitude of Manizales through the jungle and into the high altitude paramo. Constructed in the 1940s by a German skiing champion, the rooms have the feel of a classic alpine lodge because it actually was an alpine ski lodge, used by the first-ever Colombian ski-team. While not huge, the rooms are certainly comfortable.

Outside, there are two large hot thermal pools. Sitting in the steaming hot pools while feeling the cool mountain air and looking out over the valley below feels great after a long ride. The lodge is also great for watching hummingbirds. Located on a hillside above it, there's a birding shelter beside a gushing stream where 17 species of hummingbird come to feed including the second largest hummingbird species in the world. The front desk can provide you with brightly colored sugar water feeders to feed the birds from your hand.

Head uphill through a side road and you’ll come to a forest of frailejones, a tundra plant that’s been adapting at this altitude for eons, covering its flowers in white hairs to protect it from the sun and surrounding its stems in dead leaves to protect it from the cold. 

Day 7 / Manizales to Jardin

Hotel plantacion ​, hotel passiflora, mambru jardin, tacos del mundo, cafe macanas, la mayoria del suroeste, bon appetit, jardin parking, cueva de murceligos, reserva natural jardin de rocas, tour cafetera: cafe  his torias.

Jardin is the perfect place to finish a great trip. Leaving Nevado de Ruiz, we make our way down from the paramo and through the jungle until we reach the city of Manizales. Here we cross the city in about 30 minutes before we climb back up into the mountains towards the town of Riosucio. After reaching Riosucio the trail switches from pavement to unpaved gravel. We stay on the unpaved trail, winding our way through the forest until we reach the town of Jardin.  

Revered for its brightly-colored houses and quaint mountainside location, Jardin is often dubbed ‘the most beautiful town in all of Colombia’ and acts as the poster-child for the culturally-enriched Antioquia region. 

In Spring, when the town’s floral decorations are in full bloom, Jardin is an explosion of colors (and tourists), and local cafes do a great job of reflecting the vibrant essence of the city with their rainbow-colored outdoor seating. The town looks tailor-made for postcards. In town, you can simply stroll the little colonial streets, admire the stunning architecture, and watch as cowboys come into town in the evening with their trained horses. The center of town is compact and easily explored on foot.

A great way to get a bird’s eye view of the town is by cable-car. La Garucha is a home built metal lattice cable car that pulls you across a valley while suspended hundreds of meters in the air. The views of the city, mountains, and valley below are incredible, and there is a restaurant located on the other side.

Visiting the Parque Natural Jardín de Rocas is a must-do trip for birdwatchers. You can see the shockingly bright orange and black Gallo de Roca Andino also known as the Andean Cock-Of-The-Rock. Located at what is known as a lek, we can see courtship displays with males trying to impress the females. The best time to go is in the early morning and just before dusk. You can get within feet of the birds as they socialize to start and end their days.​​

Day 8 /  Jardin to Medellin

Inntu hotel​ laureles.

Sorry amigos, today we have to go back to Medellin. The trip is beautiful though and its a great way to end an awesome motorcycle adventure in Colombia.

colombia motorcycle tours

Colombia is a stunningly beautiful, diverse and vibrant country. Home to the northern tips of the Andes Mountains – the scenery, climate and landscapes of Colombia differ massively from region to region.

On this Colombian motorcycle tour we will ride at altitudes from 200m to 4,000m through jungle climates, alongside rice paddies and past snow-capped volcanoes. We’ll cross the ‘stone desert’ of La Calendaria, stay in traditional haciendas and ride between two Andes mountain ranges. When we’re not in the saddle, we’ll cross the Magdalena River on a wooden canoe, relax in hot spring pools and taste the delights of the world famous coffee region.

All of this and dirt biking too – this could be heaven!

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 2: Bogota - Villa de Leyva transfer Click to expand

To avoid riding in Bogota’s chaotic traffic we will transfer to Villa de Leyva by minivan where we’ll be greeted by our fleet of dirt bikes lined up ready to go. Perfect!

This town is simply beautiful – home to old colonial buildings, cobbled streets and Latin America’s largest town square. We’ll enjoy lunch in the square before taking the bikes out for a short test ride on some nearby trails.

Our hotel overlooks the square and is conveniently located next door to an excellent little bar – how’s that for planning? Sit outside and enjoy a cold beer or gin & tonic whilst listening to classic rock music and watching life go by.

  • Accommodation: Hotel fronting onto the largest town square in Latin America.
  • Included Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner.

We finish off at an old farm hacienda, surrounded by pine forests and trails.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 4: Ubaté - Pacho 105km Click to expand

Stunning views today as we ride winding tracks and trails through the hills. We’ll stop in small villages and meet the locals that are growing fresh coffee in their back garden. We’ll stop for picnic lunch along the way and finish at a small guesthouse with a pool.

  • Accommodation: Guesthouse.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 5: Pacho - Villeta 100km Click to expand

Riding high up into the Colombian mountains you really begin to realise the enormity of the Andes – the longest mountain range on the planet. Winding dirt roads and single track trails snake their way up and over mountain peaks, offering spectacular views over lush green forests and jungle.

In the afternoon we descend into the hot & humid conditions of the jungle. Here awaits amazing singletrack trails, plenty of river crossings and quirky bridges. It’s a great day of riding that finishes up at a private villa with our own personal chef, swimming pool and hot tub. Awesome!

  • Accommodation: Private villa with a pool.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 6: Villeta - Honda 95km Click to expand

Today is an absolute corker! We kick off with a treacherous ride along a (mostly!) disused railway that hugs a cliff edge alongside the Black River.

The locals still use the tracks for their ‘brujitas’ – tiny rickety cars powered by motorcycle engines. These adorable little train taxis double up as school buses for what is possibly the coolest and most beautiful school run ever!

We’ll ride through tunnels, pass alongside waterfalls and cross some nasty little bridges. It’s an exhilarating start to the day and man, is it fun!

It doesn’t let up either, after some beautiful tracks through the hills, we cut left and join a riverbed. Picking out our own trails, making some big splashes and letting the back end out on the wet sand, this section will leave every rider grinning from ear to ear!

There’s a small farm at the end of the trail and the family will prepare us a freshly cooked lunch and cold beers. From here, it’s a short ride to the private boat that will be waiting to take us over to the other side.

  • Accommodation: Centrally located hotel with a pool.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 7: Honda Click to expand

Spend the morning relaxing by the pool or exploring this beautiful town and its markets. We’ll meet for lunch beside the river and in the afternoon we can take the bikes to explore some riverside trails.

We can finish off the day with a couple of games of billiards in town with the locals. Just let them win occasionally!

  • Accommodation: Hotel with a swimming pool.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 8: Honda - Termales Del Ruiz 130km Click to expand

Starting the day at a very warm altitude of just 250m, it’s hard to believe that you’ll be riding past snow-capped mountains later this afternoon!

We hit the dirt and follow the Magdelana River to Beltran. We then board small wooden canoes with our bikes and finish the journey up river to Ambalema.

Awesome dirt tracks take us back up into the mountains and alongside Nevado del Ruiz, a 4,000m high volcano that conveniently heats tonight’s swimming pool!

We finish the day at an incredible hotel surrounded by hot springs, waterfalls and humming birds. We’re staying at a very chilly altitude of more than 3,000m, so the hot swimming pools are the perfect place to finish the day!

  • Accommodation: Hotel with hot pools.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 9: Termales Del Ruiz - Salento 130km Click to expand

We’re now getting into Colombia’s coffee region and we’ll ride mile after mile of rolling hills covered in coffee bushes and palm trees.

Salento is an achingly beautiful and colourful town, home to a vibrant mix of bars, restaurants and shops.

  • Accommodation: Country hotel.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 10: Salento Click to expand

Today we can explore the coffee park in an old Willys Jeep, ride horses in the Cocora valley or just wander the streets to do a spot of souvenir shopping. The choice is yours.

In the evening we’ll visit the Tejo hall for a game or two – Tejo is a traditional Colombian throwing game that’s best enjoyed after a beer or two as it involves hurling metal discs at small targets containing gunpowder! It’s not easy, but when you do ‘make a bang’ it’s a great feeling, if slightly unnerving!

  • Accommodation: Private house.
  • Included Meals: Breakfast, dinner.

colombia motorcycle tours

Day 11: Departure - Transfer to Armenia Airport Click to expand

It’s time to say our goodbyes, so we’ll transfer you to El Edén International Airport in Armenia. If time allows, why not take a short flight up to Cartegena to spend a few days relaxing on a beach on the Caribbean coast? It’s so close, it’d be rude to not too!

Bon voyage!

  • Accommodation: Not included.
  • Included Meals: Breakfast only.

Our Mission

“Growing up in rural Illinois, I have enjoyed riding motorcycles, driving trucks, and other farm vehicles along backcountry roads and was always drawn to the great outdoors. After finishing my university studies & college football playing career, I traveled across South America and fell in love with the wonderful people, diverse cultures, breathtaking landscapes, and biodiverse temperate climates of the Colombian Andes. In 2021, I made Colombia my home and opened this company in hopes to give like-minded travelers the opportunity to see the Colombia I know and love to this day.”
