Amazing Ecological Experience - While visiting Bogota with my 10 month old baby, I had to choose plans that could be of benefit for her. Sometimes even if you have relatives in the city is hard for them to spend enough time and/or share with you the ideal plans for Babies.
I found Imagine your Bogota website and saw the plan they had to visit Simon Bolivar Park. The plan originally was to do it by bike but they managed to adapt their time and transportation so we could also visit the Virgilio Barco Park. We walked everywhere and thanks to Javier’s amazing guidance, we arrived to the right spots for my baby such as the sandy area and the park with fun attractions. We really enjoy the experience! Highly recommended!
