Colombia - January 18, 2024 [Note: no sound] Some of the best places to see the eclipse in Colombia are those in the annularity band, where the Moon will cover 95% of the solar disc. One of the closest places to Bogota for this type of event is the La Tatacoa desert, in the department of Huila. The journey to reach this place, which is one of the most strategic places in Colombia to see this type of astronomical phenomena, can take between 5 and 6 hours depending on the road conditions, if leaving from Bogota. "To get to the Tatacoa Desert from Bogota is a 310-kilometre journey on stable roads in good conditions, with a time of approximately 5 hours to the city of Neiva; from there you will be 45 minutes from the municipality of Villavieja, then you will only need 15 minutes to get to the heart of the desert", says the official website of the Tatacoa Desert. When you arrive in the municipality of Villavieja in the department of Huila, you have several options for accommodation, however, the entrance to the Tatacoa is free of charge, as it is a historical heritage site open to tourism. Within this site, you can find different types of accommodation in hostels and hotels, which provide tourists with the basic amenities to have a comfortable stay. There you can find rooms from $ 80,000 (COP-Colombian peso) to $ 750,000 (COP) per couple and shared rooms from $ 35,000 (COP) per person. Likewise, as it is a natural ecosystem, it is possible to stay in camping sites, located in safe areas within the hostels and hotels. The cost of camping depends on whether you bring a tent or not. Prices start at $25,000 (COP) and if you need to rent a tent the price is $50,000 (COP). As for food, you can also find menus in the restaurants inside the lodgings, with breakfasts from $8,000 (COP), lunches and dinners from $15,000 (COP) and typical dishes of the region from $18,000 (COP).
