Discovering Bogotá with the Best: An Unforgettable Trip with Don Luis and his Brother - We were fortunate to be guided by Don Luis on our first visit to Bogotá, and we couldn't be more grateful. From the beginning, Don Luis proved to be more than a guide; He was an exceptional host, making sure every moment was special. He took us to emblematic places such as Montserrate and Zipaquirá, where we not only saw the beauty of these sites, but also learned about their rich history thanks to his detailed explanations. The museum tours were equally impressive, with Don Luis providing fascinating contexts that enriched our experience. Additionally, the talks during the juices about his love for Colombia and Bogotá allowed us to see the city through the eyes of someone who truly values and understands it. We cannot forget the excellent service provided by Don Luis's brother, who, as a driver, was essential for our comfortable mobility around the city. Traveling with my girlfriend was a wonderful experience, largely thanks to Don Luis and his brother, who treated us with the greatest respect and kindness. We learned enormously about Colombia, and without a doubt, Don Luis has been the best tour guide we have ever met. Without thinking about it, we would repeat this tour again. Thank you, Don Luis and your brother, for making our trip an unforgettable experience!

BEST tour guides we’ve ever had! - If you go to Bogota you MUST hire them. Luis Felipe is one of the BEST tour guides I have ever had. I have traveled to many many countries & I travel for my job…I can honestly say, this was the best tour I have ever taken. We loved Luis Felipe & his brother Alejandro so much we hired them for all 3 days we were in Bogota. Not only do they have in depth knowledge of the history & culture of the country, but they took us to their favorite off the beaten path places that we would’ve never known about. I feel like I got so much more out of these 3 days then I have in other countries where I’ve spent a week! It was so nice not to have to worry about where to park, directions, what parts of the city to stay away from, the best places to go, what to do, etc.… They had everything worked out for us, according to what we were interested in. I know it’s hard sometimes to make decisions on Internet reviews & suggestions, I was definitely wary, but… I can 1000% vouch for them. They are credible, knowledgeable, safe & all around terrific people. We now consider them friends. If you are looking for the perfect vacation in Bogota. You can’t do it without them.

Hire Luis for best tours in and around Bogotá - My friend and I hired Luis to deliver us to and from the airport in Bogotá and to complete a 3-day trip outside the city: Chicaque park, Sal de Catedral, Villa de Leyva, and Laguna de Guatavita. It was fabulous! Luis was always prompt and friendly and we enjoyed chatting with him throughout the trip about a large variety of topics. He knows a lot about Colombia and world affairs. We spoke in Spanish but his English is excellent. We would hire him again without hesitation. 100% recommended!

A great and safe tour - Luis and Alejandro were amazing guides! They picked us up from our hotel early in the morning to make sure we could fit as much into our day as possible. They took us all around Bogota and Luis shared his knowledge of Columbia’s history as we went about our day. We learned so much and had a great time seeing the sights including Monserrate, Bolivar Square, the Botero Museum, the Gold Museum and some other really cool places! We got to try some tasty Columbian treats throughout the day and we ate a delicious lunch at a local market. They also took us all the way out to the Salt Cathedral, where Luis had a private tour arranged for us and that was an incredible experience that we will never forget. Luis and Alejandro stayed with us late into the evening to fit in every last thing we wanted to do, including checking out a local grocery store. We cannot speak highly enough of this company. We do not speak Spanish and we felt incredibly safe the whole time with Luis and Alejandro as our guides. If we are able to return to Columbia we will be reaching out to them again.

Wonderful Tour - We spent the day with Alejandro and Luis Felipe. They were fantastic and really made our short trip to Bogota perfect! Our family of 5 spent an entire day on this private tour. We started with the Salt Cathedral. Luis had prepared a private guide for our tour. We learned so much and enjoyed the tour. We also really enjoyed the coffee tasting. One of our family members wanted to stop and buy local candy to bring back home. Luis took us to the store helped us pick out the best treats and helped us with the checkout. I couldn't recommend this company more highly. They were just wonderful!!!!
