Colombia
Phoenix Travel
"Colombia is one of my favourite countries in the entire world. Tourism has been picking up fast for good reason recently; it appears to have absolutely everything. Snow-clad mountains, dense rainforest, indigenous culture, a wonderful array of food, stunning Caribbean and Pacific coasts and islands, a fascinating history, prolific wildlife, birdlife and marine life... If it's not already in your portfolio, it definitively should be.
Phoenix Travel is a local DMC on a mission to set the highest standards for adventure travel in this stunning country."
Mark Wright, The Adventure Connection
WHERE
WHAT
WHY
Colombia
Phoenix Travel Group is based in Bogota and can operate a wide range of adventures across this diverse and beautiful country.
Nature, History, Culture...
Phoenix Travel Group invests extensively in researching and developing unique cultural and special interest tours, ranging from luxury experiences, family-friendly trips to trekking adventures, and wildlife tours. Their mission is to design inspiring travel experiences for FITs and groups that immerse clients in the heart of the destination.
Passionately positive impact
Phoenix Travel Group is fully committed to developing sustainable practices and providing direct community support. They go beyond tourism, with a percentage of all tours going to reforestation projects eg they have planted over 13,000 trees and deliver water to the Los Cocos community. They are dedicated to finding permanent sustainable solutions (not just providing one time aid) and are proudly Thecode.org (stopping child exploitation) certified.
WHEN
Since 2011
The idea for Phoenix was born after the owner, who was living abroad at the time, was shocked by the negative images being perpetuated around the world about his homeland. He made it his mission to change this negative view by enticing visitors to experience for themselves the striking natural beauty, rich culture and welcoming people of Colombia.
WHO
