The Complete Colombian Motorcycle Experience for 10 Riders
10 days of ultimate Colombian adventure • 40+ hours of riding • 1,420km through diverse landscapes • Mix of challenging off-road and scenic paved routes • From $2,061 USD
At Loco Moto, we specialize in long-distance Colombia motorcycle tours that go beyond the typical tourist experience. Our experienced guide team combines intimate knowledge of Colombia's roads with expert logistics, safety protocols, and access to hidden gems that transform great riding into unforgettable adventures.
This comprehensive loop showcases Colombia's incredible diversity: from high-altitude páramos and snow-capped volcanoes to lush coffee plantations, colonial towns, and natural hot springs. You'll experience some of the country's most spectacular motorcycle roads while enjoying authentic cultural immersion and carefully selected accommodations.
Day 1: Welcome to Bogota
Arrival and Optional Cultural Immersion
Your adventure begins in Colombia's vibrant capital, nestled 2,640 meters (8,660 feet) above sea level in the Andes. Upon arrival at El Dorado International Airport, our team provides seamless transfer to Spotty Hotel, a stylish, design-forward accommodation within walking distance of historic La Candelaria.
Optional Afternoon Experience: Join your motorcycle guides for traditional Colombian lunch at Plaza La Concordia, followed by an English-guided walking tour through La Candelaria's cobblestone streets. Visit Plaza Bolívar and the renowned Botero Museum, home to Fernando Botero's distinctive works alongside pieces by Picasso and Monet.
Optional Evening Experience: Ascend to Monserrate (3,152 meters) via cable car for panoramic sunset views over Bogotá, followed by dinner at Andrés D.C., an iconic restaurant known for its vibrant atmosphere and exceptional Colombian cuisine.
Accommodations: Spotty Hotel (shared occupancy, individual beds)
Day 2: The Waterfall Discovery
Bogotá → Girardot • 5 hours • 175km • All paved
Departing Bogotá, we navigate through the city before reaching Colombia's legendary winding mountain roads. Our first destination is Tequendama Falls, where a dramatic 433-foot waterfall plunges into a lush gorge. After coffee and empanadas with spectacular views, we continue through hundreds of paved curves as the landscape transforms from misty Andean peaks to warm, tropical scenery.
The day's highlight awaits at Balneario El Manantial, one of Colombia's best-kept secrets. These hidden jungle swimming holes include a unique cave pool behind a cascading waterfall and natural pools accessed via a scenic 15-minute hike, often accompanied by wild parrots overhead. We arrive in riverside Girardot by sunset for group dinner.
Accommodations: Arizona Ranch Hotel (shared occupancy, individual beds)
Day 3: Into the Coffee Heartland
Girardot → Salento • 6.5 hours • 199km • 20% paved, 80% off-road adventure
Today delivers one of Colombia's premier off-road experiences as we journey to Salento, the iconic heart of coffee country. This challenging route follows remote backroads through spectacular terrain, offering beginner to intermediate unpaved riding with potential for muddy conditions.
Salento serves as gateway to two of the world's most remarkable wax palm forests. The Quindío wax palm, Colombia's national tree and Earth's tallest palm species, creates landscapes so extraordinary that Spanish settlers once mistook them for mythical trees. We'll visit both the famous Cocora Valley and the larger, less-visited Tochecito forest.
Upon arrival, we'll enjoy viewpoint perspectives of Cocora Valley before settling into our accommodations and gathering for group dinner.
Accommodations: Salento Real Eje Cafetero Hotel (shared occupancy, individual beds, breakfast included)
Day 4: Coffee Culture Immersion
Salento Exploration Day
Salento offers rich experiences worthy of extended exploration. We begin with hearty breakfast before horseback riding through stunning valley landscapes, crossing lush fields, rolling hills, and multiple rivers in one of the region's most scenic adventures.
After lunch, a short motorcycle ride brings us to the iconic Cocora Valley for close encounters with towering Quindío wax palms. The afternoon features hands-on coffee farm experiences where you'll learn cultivation, harvesting, roasting, and brewing techniques while tasting Colombia's world-renowned coffee at its source.
Evening offers optional participation in tejo, Colombia's explosive national sport combining skill with gunpowder-powered excitement, traditionally enjoyed with local beverages.
Accommodations: Salento Real Eje Cafetero Hotel (shared occupancy, individual beds, breakfast included)
Day 5: Volcanic Hot Springs Adventure
Salento → Los Nevados National Park → Hot Springs Hotel • 5.5 hours • 202km • All paved
Today's route through Los Nevados National Natural Park follows what many consider Colombia's most beautiful road. We'll loop around Nevado del Ruiz, South America's most active volcano, ascending through dramatic elevation changes and diverse ecosystems.
The journey traverses páramo, a rare tropical alpine tundra found only in South America. This cloud-forest-above-treeline environment features haunting landscapes populated by frailejones, unique highland plants including Colombia's tallest species. Weather conditions vary dramatically with frequent fog, mist, and temperature swings, but clear moments reveal unforgettable panoramic vistas.
Our destination: a luxury hot springs resort where natural volcanic thermal pools provide perfect relaxation surrounded by mountain landscapes.
Accommodations: Termales del Otoño (shared occupancy, individual beds)
Day 6: Mountain Town Heritage
Hot Springs Hotel → Jericó • 3 hours 10 minutes • 177km • All paved
We ride to Jericó, a personal favorite destination perched high in the mountains with breathtaking views and vibrant colonial architecture. This authentic town, where one of our founder's family were among the original settlers, maintains its historic character while offering modern amenities.
The afternoon features tandem paragliding over the Andes, with Jericó's unique topography creating ideal conditions for soaring above rolling green valleys and coffee farms. Professional instructors handle all technical aspects, requiring no prior experience for this unforgettable aerial perspective.
Accommodations: Hotel Santa Laura (shared occupancy, individual beds)
Day 7: The Historic Railway Bridge
Jericó → Guatapé • 4 hours 45 minutes • 187km • All paved
Departing the Coffee Region, we ride east toward colorful lakeside Guatapé through endless curves and panoramic mountain views. The route includes the legendary Viaducto de Amagá, a bucket-list destination for adventure motorcyclists.
This century-old steel railway bridge spans a deep jungle canyon, no longer used by trains but accessible to thrill-seeking riders. Crossing this engineering marvel provides a surreal experience high above the valley floor, surrounded by dense forest and echoes of Colombia's industrial heritage.
Arriving in Guatapé, famous for its zócalos (vibrant hand-painted building panels), we'll climb El Peñol's 740 granite steps for 360-degree panoramic views over surrounding lakes and islets.
Accommodations: The Brown (shared occupancy, individual beds)
Day 8: Mountain Retreat Journey
Guatapé → Ecohotel Los Mikos • 6 hours 20 minutes • 271km • 90% paved
Our longest riding day takes us south through diverse terrain from highland valleys to subtropical hills, arriving at Ecohotel Los Mikos, a hidden gem tucked into mountains above a stunning reservoir. This remote eco-retreat offers peaceful relaxation with mountain views, pool access, and optional kayaking on the pristine waters below.
Accommodations: Ecohotel Los Mikos (private rooms, individual beds)
Day 9: The Final Mountain Challenge
Ecohotel Los Mikos → Bogotá • 6 hours 15 minutes • 250km • 90% paved
Our final riding day begins with off-road forest terrain and rural backroads before joining smooth highway alongside the mighty Magdalena River, Colombia's longest waterway. We then tackle one of Colombia's finest motorcycle roads through the Cordillera Oriental: flowing corners, perfect pavement, and sweeping valley views.
