Excellent Tour - José was a very knowledgeable guide who managed to condense the history of Colombia and Bogota in an informative way, whilst showing us around the La Candelaria neighbourhood. The fruit and coffee tastings were a nice touch. I would recommend to anyone visiting Bogota.

Great guide, great experience. - This is a great walking tour of La Candelaria. Our guide, Natalie, was absolutely amazing. She spoke English very well and answered all questions any of us had on the tour. The tour is about 3 hours long, but it went quickly, as there were numerous activities to take part in throughout. The fresh fruit tasting and coffee tasting were enjoyable. Throughout the walk, there were a lot of interesting historical facts talked about and the neighborhood scenery was beautiful. I am very glad we booked this tour, I would recommend it to anyone looking to visit Bogota and get the most “bang for their buck”.

guide talks way too fast - The guide speaks too fast, so it was difficult to understand what he said. Missed more historical information about the places we visited. The positives were tips about places to eat.
