Amazing experience - 5 stars and above! Both tours were amazing! The sites were exactly what we wanted to see. What made it even better was Sergio, Camillo and Omar. Sergio hands down is the best. We had 1 day planned and booked the second day, he was that great. He was knowledgeable, easy, accommodating and an absolute pleasure to spend our time with. He is exactly what all tour people should be like, personable and very easy to get along with, not to mention all the laughs we had.I highly recommend this company based on our experience from the beginning to the end.

The Reviews are Positive for a Reason - We only had one full day in Bogotá, so we wanted to make the most of it and decided to take the full tour. Great sights, great guide (Gerald), and overall a lot of enjoyable moments. Definitely recommend, but you already see all of the other positive reviews - they’re positive for a reason.

Bogota Tour - Just completed an awesome tour of Bogota with Sergio as lead guide and his driver, Nomar.
Sergio contacted us the day before to confirm pickup time and location. He spoke excellent English and Spanish and his passion for Bogota and Colombia was clearly evident!
He led us on a walking tour of Candelaria, full of colorful homes and beautiful artwork on buildings. Stopped at a fruit vendor for a tasting where he thoroughly described multiple, delicious items in detail.
We then toured a massive outdoor street market where we saw so many unique items. We bought some handmade hummingbirds that are created by local indigenous single mothers.
We also toured beautiful churches and art museums where he provided extensive knowledge of everything’s we saw.
Finally we took a cable car up the hill to Monserrate where he again explained about the city’s development and history. The sights from this 10,000 foot high church was spectacular!
Finally, he returned us to our hotel with the offer of contacting him if we had other needs or questions. We did so and he immediately provided us resources.
Can’t say enough about Sergio and the wonderful experience he provided!

Perfect full day tour of Bogota - We did the full 7 hour tour, which was a perfect overview of Bogota. Our tour was on a Monday so the gold and military museums were closed, but we did the emerald museum instead. The guide also did a great job of giving us a few ideas for a few other things to do in the area when we go back for the museums that were closed.
They had every little detail worked out for the whole day, and it couldn’t have been any better. Cristian was our guide and did a nice job going over history, culture, and nature. Excellent tour.
