Once I arrive, I would like to take a few days to get acquainted with my new surroundings. Any suggestions of things to do, any good tours? Although I have traveled to South America before, I have never visited Colombia.

Dear G,

Welcome to the Colombia forum.

Apparently, you are moving to Colombia next month (Feb. 2017) without having visited first or having a job offer. You might be the first.

Get acquainted with www.showaround.com tonight .. and then get back to us.

Where in Colombia are you moving? Or, at least, where are you arriving, initially?
