Colombia

Most travelers from the US, Canada, UK, EU, and Australia do not need a visa for stays under 90 days. Some nationalities may require one; always check your country’s entry requirements before traveling.

Yes, tourist destinations like Cartagena and Medellín are generally safe when you stay in recommended areas and follow normal travel precautions. Two Travel provides trustworthy drivers, secure accommodations, and 24/7 support to ensure a safe experience.

The currency is the Colombian Peso (COP). Credit cards are widely accepted, but small bills are useful for taxis, tips, and markets.

Colombia uses 110V / Type A and B outlets, the same as the US and Canada. Travelers from Europe or the UK will need an adaptor.

You can stay connected using:

  • eSIM (Airalo, Holafly)

  • Local SIM cards (Claro, Tigo)

  • Wi-Fi in villas, hotels, and restaurants

Coverage is strong in Cartagena and Medellín.

Tipping 10% is standard in restaurants. For services like bellboys, drivers, guides, and villa staff, $2–$10 USD, depending on service level, is appreciated.

Cartagena, Colombia

Cartagena’s tourist areas—Centro Histórico, Getsemaní, Bocagrande, and the islands—are safe when using authorized services. Two Travel only works with approved drivers, captains, and vendors to guarantee reliability.

Cartagena is warm year-round. The best months are December to April for sunny weather. June–August is also popular. Expect more humidity from September to November.

It’s recommended to drink bottled or filtered water. Villas and many restaurants offer purified water.

Pack light clothing, swimsuits, sunscreen, comfortable shoes, a hat, bug spray for island trips, and dressy outfits for nightlife. Everything is humid, so quick-dry fabrics help.

Two Travel offers private yachts, catamarans, and speedboats. Rentals include the crew, fuel, ice, and coolers. You can add a private chef, drinks, DJ, or island reservations (Rosario Islands, Cholon, Blue Apple, Bora Bora). Trips typically last 8 hours.

Medellín, Colombia

Yes. Neighborhoods like El Poblado, Laureles, and Provenza are safe for travelers and popular with tourists. With Two Travel, you’ll use trusted drivers, reliable transfers, and vetted local partners to ensure a smooth and safe trip.

Medellín is known as the “City of Eternal Spring,” offering mild weather year-round. However:

  • December–March: Best weather, busiest season.

  • August: Feria de las Flores (Flower Festival).

April–May & October–November: Rainier months, still very pleasant.

Yes — bring a light jacket or sweater. Evenings can be cooler, especially compared to Cartagena or Tulum.

Two Travel recommends:

  • El Poblado – safest, most walkable; best nightlife/restaurants.

  • Provenza – upscale and trendy.

  • Laureles – quieter, local vibe.

Absolutely. We handle reservations at top restaurants, rooftops, clubs, and private tables in Provenza, Parque Lleras, and Manila, plus host-led nights for groups.

Popular options include:

  • Guatapé & El Peñol

  • Comuna 13 tour

  • Coffee farm experiences

Mexico uses the Mexican Peso (MXN). Credit cards are accepted in most places, but carrying some cash is useful for taxis, markets, and beach clubs.

Use an eSIM (Airalo, Holafly), local SIM card (Telcel), or rely on Wi-Fi in villas, hotels, restaurants, and coworking spaces.
