Vic –
We booked a range of tours with The Colombian Way over the course of 2 weeks. We contacted Mark and he arranged everything from transfers from the airport to daily tours in each location, a private driver and also some flights. He was very fast in communication and was always available to help out whenever we needed it which was brilliant as the Government were changing what was open at a moments notice. He was also extremely competitive on price being 30% cheaper than another tour operator.
The Colombian Way had arranged for their driver to pick us up from San Agustin and drive through to Villavieja. We decided to stayed overnight in Villavieja as it the closest town to Tatacoa desert. We arrived in Tatacoa around 1:30pm which allowed us time to have some nice coffee and cake at nearby Café Mael before we met up with the local guide. We liked the guide who was very friendly and had good English.
There are 2 deserts in Tatacoa, Red and Grey, and we were heading for the Red desert now whilst we toured the grey desert the following morning.
It took about 45 minutes drive to the Red desert. It’s a bit like the red deserts of the USA but much smaller. We stopped to take photos at a couple of vantage points before starting a 90 minute, 2km hike through the red desert. It’s good to get up and close to get the best photos with the interesting backdrops. It had recently rained and we had to tread carefully through some of the mud. At one stage my shoe decided that it would remain in the mud as I marched on… oops!
We saw a few colourful butterflies, some small birds perched on the cactuses (some brown, some bright yellow and an eagle) as well as a hummingbird and buzzards. Also thrown in for good measure was a goat, just wandering around as you do. There are some impressive rock features in the desert like Estoraque la Torre (the Tower Rock). The flowering cactuses with their fruit were also good to see. After the hike we were driven back to our hotel in Villavieja.
The following morning we were driven back from Villavieja to the Tatacoa desert to the see the grey desert. We did another hike of about 90 minutes and saw 3 eagles this time, perched on the top of cactuses. How do they handle those cactus spines?
There’s a sense of peace in this place which is maybe accentuated by going in the morning. The shadows in the morning highlight the rock features that appear like grey blankets tossed over a mound of earth. There are some good photo spots and our guide took some great photos of us.
After the hike, The Colombian Way had arranged for our driver took us directly to Bogota airport. We decided on driving to Bogota airport as it only takes 6 hours and we had heard that the flights from Neiva can be cancelled so we didn’t want to run the risk of missing our International flight if the Neiva to Bogota flight was cancelled.
The Tatacoa desert, red and grey tours, are both really good and highly recommended!
