Description

Bogotá has a lot to offer and we want to show you the best for you to have a complete perspective of it. Dive into Bogotá’s diversity by joining our fun private city tour!

Start your city tour in Bogotá by meeting our local guide at your hotel. He will take you to our first stop: Monserrate. Here we’ll take the cable car up the mountain to enjoy the most amazing and breathtaking views of this city: the whole length of the valley from the best vantage point.

After taking the way back down La Candelaria, you will walk its cobblestoned streets, surrounded by colonial architecture to the spectacular Gold Museum. You’ll learn about our ancestors through their remains of metalwork made before Spaniard’s arrival. Listen to the guide retelling the transition from indigenous to Spanish colonization at the foundational square Chorro de Quevedo and taste chicha an ancestral corn-based fermented drink. Nearby you will also taste some Colombian flavor through fruits and natural juices.

Head to Simón Bolívar Square and learn how politics and conflict relate to each other and its current challenges with a peace agreement already signed. Then, jump to Botero Museum and see some of the greatest works of Colombian modern painter Fernando Botero.

After a fulfilling city tour finishes this journey in the best way possible, by tasting a cup of Colombian coffee, at a place where local and friendly baristas will teach you the basics about our treasured goods. Of course, time for lunch will be given as well as recommendations from the guide. Keep in mind this tour can last from 5 to 7 hours, and it’s up to you and the places you choose to visit.

This will be nothing but a whole day of getting amazed by Bogotá’s vibe. Don’t even doubt it.
