10 TOP Things to Do in Santander March 2026

The hills above Bucaramanga in Colombia have near-perfect conditions for paragliding, making this a great place to take a tandem flight or to learn to paraglide solo. You can learn to fly solo in ten days and it is far cheaper than you would pay in Europe - the views are incredible & with Colombian tourism only just building momentum there are only a handful of other tourists doing it.
