Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers spectacular and close-up views of the Los Nevados National Natural Park, including several iconic snow-capped volcanoes of the Central Andes.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🌋

Nevado del Ruiz

The most famous active volcano in the range, often seen venting steam from its massive summit crater.

❄️

Nevado de Santa Isabel

A stunning glaciated peak that sits between Ruiz and Tolima, showcasing rare tropical glaciers.

🏔️

Nevado del Tolima

A prominent, symmetrical volcanic cone that dominates the skyline of the Central Cordillera.

🏞️

Los Nevados National Park

High-altitude paramo ecosystems with unique Frailejones plants visible on the lower slopes.

🏠

Manizales Cityscape

The 'City of Open Doors' is often visible perched precariously on steep mountain ridges just north of the flight path.

Book an early morning flight (before 8:30 AM) for the highest chance of seeing the snow-capped peaks before they are obscured by afternoon cloud cover. The proximity to the volcanoes on this short 45-minute flight is world-class.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Southern Bogota

Aerial perspective of the sprawling southern suburbs and the edge of the Sabana de Bogota plateau.

🌊

Magdalena River

Views of Colombia's principal river as it winds through the tropical valley between the Eastern and Central cordilleras.

⛰️

Central Cordillera Ridges

Deep green canyons and sharp ridges of the high-altitude Andean terrain during the mid-flight crossing.

☕

Coffee Cultural Landscape

Intricate patterns of coffee plantations and wax palms visible during the final descent into the Otun River valley.

Sit toward the rear of the plane to capture the scale of the Magdalena Valley without wing interference. This side is better during late afternoon flights as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the green valleys below.
