Great Option to see some of Bogotá's Highlights within a few hours. - I had a brief layover in Bogotá and wanted to experience the city a little bit within this limited amount of time. During this private 3h tour my friendly guide ANDRÉS showed me some of the city's highlights including even entrance to some museums, among them the Museo del Oro. Further, some places of interest were visited, including of course the Plaza de Bolivar. Towards the end, we walked through La Candelaria and its street art and enjoyed some colombian coffee. The only highlight that simply does not fit in a 3h itinerary is a visit of Cerro Montserrate. So thanks for the great insight of Bogotá and a brief Tour I can highly recommend. Additionaly, transportation to/from the hotel is also included.

Great experience! - Our tour guide was Camilla and she was really great! Two of us in the group spoke Spanish, but one didn’t, so she did the tour in English, and spoke English very well. She was very knowledgeable and told us the history of many things. I highly recommend going on this tour.

Highly recommend for long layovers!!! - We had a long layover in Bogota and signed up for this tour only a few days prior. Lorena reached out over WhatsApp a day in advance to confirm our flight info. She picked us up at the airport and did a fantastic job showing us (family of 4) around the Candelaria area. She thoroughly answered all our questions both in car and on the ground. We tried Colombia coffee and empanadas while walking around. She also gave us tips on what else to go see after the tour was over. Loved it!

Bogota Walking Shopping Centre - We pass Pro several points of Bogota, the center of the government of Colombia, also the center of the government of the State of Cundinamarca and the City Hall. It's very tumultuous there. Hard to walk and dangerous to be robbed.

Fantastic Layover Tour - I got stuck in Bogata for the day thanks to Avianca messing up my flights. So I decided to make the most of it and booked a tour to explore Bogata. If I recall correctly my guides name was Cristian. He arrived promptly at 10 wiry a taxi that dropped us off at the centre. He is quite the historian, going into details with the various historically occurrences, their significance and impact on the city, country, tribes etc. I loved the murals, graffiti art encountered during the walk, the fruit tasting, chance to do a bit of souvenir shopping. It was just enough to convince me to perhaps visit again to explore more of Bogata. Well spent few hours!
