Bucaramanga Hotels - Reviews and Rates

Hello all!

Happy 4th of July!

I met a Colombian family yesterday at breakfast in Bucaramanga. They gave me some travel tips and the topic of conversation at the table kept turning to Bucaramanga. I was still set in my resolve to head up to the coast, to Taganga. But then I stopped. And I asked myself why. Did I really want to go t...

Kati ist von Aracataca aus direkt nach Bogota durchgefahren. Ich wollte noch einmal einen kurzen Zwischenstop in Bucaramanga einlegen, da ich den Leuten dort versprochen hatte am Freitag Abend noch einmal mit ihnen wegzugehen und außerdem war am Samstag ein großer Jahrmarkt in Lebrija, dem Dorf der Ananas. Das Dorf wurde von mir so benannt, weil...

Well, Cartagena was very charming in the old city. Great colonial buildings and clean. However, the rest of the city was pretty dirty, which surprised me as Colombia had been pretty clean until my last stop. Also, it was just too hot for me to hang out for too long. Now I´m in Bucaramanga, where there´s not much to do, but I don´t really care. I...

We were keen to reach the Carribean and not so keen on overnight buses so had to wade our way through the murky mankiness that was Bucaramanga. One must eat and so we tentatively left our hotel and were discovered looking lost and hungry by a group of Colombians on holiday who wanted to show their friendliness. Pointing to the bad parts of town,...

Good evening everyone, Finally, one more night in Colombia and then we're on a plane back to good'ol Canada!!! Today, my neurosurgeon Fidel and his wife invited my dad, my sister and I to their apartment for a home cooked lunch at 13:00. Fidel's wife even came to pick us up at the hotel and Fidel drove us back on the scenic route along the top r...

Well, well, well... After yesterday morning's fantastic thermalling experience, I had a pretty boring flight down to the regular landing zone. I decided that I was content with the morning flight and had had enough for the day. So I spent the afternoon relaxing, taking pictures of the locals and other pilots flying till sundown and blogging here...

Finally, after 3 days in Colombia, we have sampled what is described as a truly authentic Colombian dish: Plato de lomo mixto. Basically, a whole bunch of carne (meat) in various forms with a weird white vegetable, a fried banana, etc. It was really good and prepared for us late at night by the owner of our new hostel: La Vienta. It's about 20 ...

Hi guys, Just a quick hello to say that the company is great and the first flight was a success for both Michel and I... After three long months of no flying at all! The conditions and landscape are very similar to one of our launches at Mont Yamaska in Quebec. However, Michel did decide to try out one of the tricky emergency landing zones... He...

Yesterday we just kind of took things easy and hung out around the house. In the morning we had more arroz con leche for breakfast, I could eat that all day. Lupita was cleaning house because we were going to have guests later. Oscar's Dad was at work but he comes home every day for about two hours to eat lunch with them. She made fried chicken ...
