The best weekend trip from Medellín? // Santa Fe de Antioquia, Colombia

Santa Fe de Antioquia Colombia: Is this the best weekend trip from Medellín?

Santa Fe de Antioquia, one of the best weekend trips from Medellin! Medellin to Santa Fe de Antioquia is an easy trip to make so if you’re staying in nearby Medellin you have to check this place out! ???? Heck, if you only had one day you could even make it a day trip from Medellin out of it and see the suspension bridge there. ????????

This charming small town is surrounded by mountains and is one of the oldest colonial cities in all of Latin America and also home to the oldest suspension bridge in all of Colombia!

It’s a great place to lounge and get away from big city life for a long weekend. We were told many Medellin locals come here for weekend trips and we can see why.

We also couldn’t recommend the Hotel Mariscal Robledo more (And no, we don’t get any kickbacks for mentioning them lol.) It’s truly the most special hotel in the city. We stayed here for Olivia's birthday in February & went during the beginning of the week when it's less crowded.

We spent our days: lounging by the pool, playing ping pong & pool, we got massages, used the steam room, drank the BEST iced coffee (Cafe Canelo), ate great food (patacones & empanadas from the hotel) and drinks (try Limonada de Coco and Guandolo).

They make it really easy to never leave the property! ????
And all for a very AFFORDABLE PRICE (when using american dollars). The rooms were about $65 USD per night, included free breakfast, and all drinks and food by the pool was anywhere between $3-$6 USD.

Safe travels!

OUR STORY
Hey! We're Olivia and Nathan ???????? A couple from California.

We met back in 2014 in Monterey, California. I (Olivia) was a senior in college & Nathan had recently moved back to the area after living in Italy.

After a few “deep life talks” (ones that were so foreign to me) and hearing about the lifestyle Nathan had been creating for himself for the last 6 years, I wanted to spend more time with him.

We started dating and I learned how he’d moved to Cambodia when he was 17, Germany when he was 18, Italy when he was 20, and was itching to travel again.

I was fascinated and wondered HOW THE HECK DID THIS GUY PAY FOR ALL OF THAT?

Nathan would work in California for 2 years, save every dollar he could, move abroad, find a job in that country, live there for 1-2 years and then do it all over again. Each time, he’d learn the language of that country, acquire new skills & make lifelong friends.

I was deeply inspired & wanted to travel with him. After 1 year of working our butts off and saving every dollar we could, we moved to Australia. We lived + worked there for 3 years (learned to speak perfect Australian lol) & created online jobs so we could continue traveling full-time.

We were traveling South America when covid hit, flew home and bought an RV to travel the US.
[ We bought an RV & Toured the USA - series ]

Down to earth, entertaining, and informative is our goal — we want you to feel like you’re experiencing the day with us.

Downside to Living in Medellin Colombia + 6 things you should know

About us:

In May 2018, we got married, quit our jobs, and booked a one-way flight to Bangkok, Thailand. It's not that we were unhappy with our lives, we just wanted to live more intentionally and abundantly. Stepping away from a traditional lifestyle of home to work, and repeat, was one of the best decisions we could've made. It has allowed us to grow into our new marriage, see more of the world, and learn about other cultures. We've traveled to five countries in Asia and counting. Our channel is a mix of lifestyle, travel, and general entertainment.

Welcome to Colombia

Colombia is a country with a lot of history, part of it is something that Colombians do not want to remember. Violence, drug trafficking in Colombia and Pablo Escobar are part of this tragic history for Colombians. That is what many foreigners know about Colombia, despite the fact that Colombia is much more than that.
For this reason, when you come to Colombia these are topics that you should avoid mentioning in front of Colombians.
Also, since tourism in Colombia has developed, many foreigners come to the country to do unpleasant practices and ruin the reputation of this beautiful country, which has a lot to offer, for this reason it is very important that you watch this video before coming to Colombia and know what you should avoid doing when coming to Colombia.

As you probably guessed, I’m a bit of an expert on Colombia travel, and I’ve got lots of great advice on Colombia tourism that will allow you to make the most of your experience as you travel Colombia.
I began traveling Colombia back in 2015 after finishing up my first semester here in Bogota working towards my MBA. I immediately fell in love with the country and the wide variety of adventures and opportunities that traveling Colombia has to offer. As a country rich in both natural and cultural diversity, your Colombian travel experience will not disappoint.
Before you can begin your Colombia travels, we must get you here first. As a foreigner myself, I understand how difficult it can be navigating your way through a foreign country. But fear not because Colombiafrank is here to help you with your travels to Colombia so that you can avoid the common mistakes and get right to the good stuff. Just think of me as your go to Colombia travel guide!

FYI: This video was shot before the crisis started.

In today's video we did something we've never done before. We went on an apartment tour with Juan Camilo! We will show you 3 different apartments in 3 different neighborhoods and different price ranges. The apartments are located in El Poblado, Envigado and Sabaneta.

We are so excited to finally being able to post this video!
We put a lot of effort and time into this project because we know that many of our clients are interested in buying real estate in Colombia, but they have no idea about prices, the process and more.

That's exactly why we work with Juan Camilo. He already explained in previous videos how the real estate market in Colombia works and shared insider tips that are really helpful.

Find out more about the real estate market in Colombia:



We hope this video helps you to get a better idea of the real estate market and what you can more or less expect within your specific budget.

THE COLOMBIA YOU DON’T HEAR ABOUT! (GETSEMANI & PALENQUE)

In this Colombia Travel Vlog we are taking you to Getsemani, a very colorful and historic neighborhood in Cartagena, Colombia as well as on a day trip to San Basilio de Palenque, the first free town in the Americas for Africans. During the colonial period in Cartagena, Getsemani was where the displaced indigenous and enslaved Africans were placed. San Basilio de Palenque, shortened Palenque, is a town where many Africans fled Cartagena in search of their freedom which was granted to them in 1713. While Cartagena receives many tourists throughout the year not many take the time to learn about the real history here so we hope this travel video teaches you a bit about what really happened so when you travel to Cartagena you can better understand Getsemani and Palenque, Colombia.

Is Colombia safe? Is Medellín still dangerous? | The News & Netflix vs. The NEW Colombia

We're Olivia and Nathan ????????
Is Colombia safe? Is Colombia dangerous? What about the News and Netflix’s “Narcos,” aren't you guys afraid to be going to Medellín?

That was what we got asked a lot before moving to Colombia, and after being there for over 3 months, we felt like this was a video we just HAD to make.
We spent the majority of our time living in Medellín and Cartagena. And so we wanted to address the question, “As tourists living in Colombia, did Medellín feel dangerous to us?” Well, this was our experience.

???????? And if you’re planning a trip to Colombia soon, let us know which city in Colombia you’re heading to first in the comments below! ????????

Traveling is embedded into our relationship as we met on a Spring Break cruise in 2016. Since then, we haven't stopped traveling together in the United States and abroad. We left New York in July 2019 to travel the world and we took work with us. We have made it our mission to slow travel for 16 months throughout South America and Asia.

Traveling Atlas was created to capture our moments of taking risk, building connections, and seeing the world. We will be staying in each country we visit for about a month in order to experience cultures to our maximum capacity and to inspire others that they can do the same. We are Brandon and Erin, follow the journey and stay tuned.
