You might might make it in 8 hours, there had been some landslides on the road Cajamarca Ibague.

If you got time do a stop in Ibague and be part of San Pedro festivites until monday

I heard La Linea had landslides earlier in the week, web has a good suggestion, use it as an excuse to party in Ibague for the weekend.

I have no info on landslides or holidays but my only advice is do it as early as possible. Leaving Armenia at around 4 am is not a crazy idea, and chances are it'll shorten your trip. Also, drive carefully, its a very curvy road and sometimes large vehicles have to take the curves in two steps so keep both eyes very open. If you manage to pull a very early morning I would say 7 hours.

It is a puente this weekend in colombia, so you should add another few hours to your trip.

Argh! I am jealous now, I wish we had more festivos everywhere else. And yes if it is San Pedro (there are like 2 long weekends this month right? One is San Pedro and then there is another one or vice versa...I dunno) then I would say 10 hours and suggest you wake up even earlier...if its on Saturday then you're cool once you've made it to Ibague as most people will be leaving Bogota not going there.

Don't drink if you're planning to drive over La Linea.

Tia Desi:

I was sent a bill from the bus company several years ago which they alleged was the cost of removing my finger nails and finger indentations from the seat. Mrs. Gator's comment, in Spanish of course, was: "¡Por Dios! ¿Ja puedo abrir los ojos? (My God! Can I open my eyes?)

Desi, I disagree. Don't drink and drive! But I highly recommend that you drink if you are a passenger. It's the only way I can travel it. Not to mention those who drink seem to have a better chance of surviving accidents...jajaja. Again, NOT if you are driving.
