Our travel company, Paisadventure, offers private and 100% customized tours to several other destinations worldwide. It’s based in Valparaiso, Indiana, and the Coffee Region of Colombia. We specialize in tours to Colombia, Turkey, Greece, Armenia, and the United States.
Why Travel With Paisadventure
Our goal is to give our guests an immersive cultural experience, showing them the best of their destination while flying under the radar:
- There’s a maximum of 8 travelers per tour in Colombia and 4 in other destinations, so you won’t be shuttled around on huge coaches filled with 50 people and following a guide shouting on a megaphone. We want our guests to feel as if they’re traveling with friends rather than on a large group tour.
- We provide private transportation throughout the tour and stay in our favorite boutique hotels and B&Bs.
- When it’s time to eat, we take our guests to some of the best restaurants in each location, and you won’t be limited to a few predetermined choices.
- We’ve traveled to the locations we offer and have connections with local guides.
- We’re not just the owners of the company, we’re also the tour leaders. We’ll accompany your group throughout the tour in order to provide the best customer service possible. There won’t be a different guide meeting you at each location!
- We work to offer a fair price for private tours as an alternative to other companies that seem to charge a fortune.
How We Work
- We have pre-planned fully customizable tours of Colombia on our website. Choose one of them, book your flight, and we’ll pick you up at the airport!
- For any destination, we’ll build your tour from scratch. To get started, we ask you about your travel style (“let’s take our time”, “a full day with some breaks built in”, or “I want to see everything possible”); interests (culture, history, food, nature, etc.); and hotel comfort level (“just a place to sleep”, “clean and comfortable”, or “lap of luxury”). Then when you know how many days you have and approximate start dates, we build a tour, price it out, and send it for your approval. When everything looks good, you send a deposit, book your flights, and we do the rest!
