There are not many travel books for Colombia. Since I was traveling alone and my Spanish is minimal, I decided that I was going to study very hard with this book. I am glad that I made a good choice of this book. First I read the entire book, then I reread the Caribbean Coast session twice. I was well prepared in my mind when I landed Cartagena. I followed this book on hotel book, restaurant selection and tour booking too. For three weeks I traveled along the coast and this book offered all the information I needed including many details. There were many occasions that I realized Oh, it was in my book. For anyone traveling Colombia, I am highly recommending this one!
