Colombia food experience -Colombia Retreat with Claudia Laroye

COLOMBIA CREATIVE ADVENTURE

Colombia Retreat with Claudia Laroye: From the Caribbean to the Andes. Experience Colombia with a Writer’s Eye and a Traveller’s Curiosity.

This isn’t just a tour—it’s a creative adventure. Join travel writer Claudia Laroye for a journey through Colombia that blends vivid landscapes, cultural immersion, and space to create.

An epic, curated Colombia journey for women — travelling independently, together. Experience this joyful journey and ignite your creativity during this adventure through cultural discovery.

This is a small-group experience designed for women who value meaningful connections, elevated style, and stories worth telling. You’ll arrive solo, but from the very first night you’ll be part of a like-minded group — women who don’t know each other yet, and quickly become the best kind of travel companions.

Across Cartagena’s Caribbean magic and Medellín’s creative renaissance, you’ll blend world-class dining (including a restaurant recognized by The World’s 50 Best), rooftop cocktails, a private speedboat day in the Rosario Islands, Afro-Caribbean rhythm on the beach, and powerful community-led storytelling. Everything is taken care of — so you can focus on feeling present, safe, and fully alive. Expect beauty, depth, laughter, and that rare feeling of: I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be.

Claudia Laroye is an award-winning travel writer and author of A Gelato a Day, a collection of stories about the real joys (and chaos) of family travel. Based in Vancouver, Claudia brings years of storytelling experience—and a great sense of humour—to every journey. Throughout your Colombia trip with Claudia, you’ll have the opportunity to journal and receive travel writing tips from Claudia. She’ll share travel writing techniques she’s developed in her 15 years as a travel writer.

Come to Colombia with Claudia; leave with stories. Dates: Oct 12-20, 2026
