Think you know Colombia? Think again and discover delightful Medellin.



Surrounded by breathtaking mountains lies a subtropical valley that is home to Medellin, city of eternal spring.

Since first discovering this wonderful place in 2000, getting to know the charm of the Paisas (endearing term for Antioquenians) and to living here part time when not in Norway, the city and surrounding region have proved a delightful area to explore and encounter.

Medellin is colourful and varied. This rich diversity offers an abundance of sites and attractions. The beautiful surrounding landscape promises experiences of adventure and sports such as golf, hiking, paragliding and white water rafting.

Hotels extend first-rate service, amenities and value for money. Restaurants are affordable, varying from tasty Colombian to Italian or Chinese, traditional to modern chic.

There are direct flights to Miami and New York and only 35 minutes by plane to the capital Bogota that connects directly to several European destinations.

Colombia is changing. The economy is booming, safety levels rising greatly and the standard of living on the increase.

Enjoy the tropical fruits and fresh juices, wander around the famous textile district of Itagui. Take a day-trip to the village of Santa Fe de Antioquia with its Spanish colonial architecture or to Rionegro and enjoy the rolling hills, lakes and abundance of flowers.

Welcome and enjoy a part of the world that has yet to be fully discovered!
