Hippos, cocaine, AK47s, FARC. It will be like Romancing the Stone without Michael Douglas and with more fun.

Colombia is a big country, for a place that isn’t China/Russia/Canada/US/Brazil. You can probably arrange a tour with plenty of jungle, even a few hippos, but no FARC. Just get an up-to-date map!

The drug trade have largely left the Colombian Amazon area. You will still see AK47s in Leticia but it is to guard the gemstone trade. It was very peaceful during my stay there.
