Absolutely wonderful! - Our tour guide, Gina, took us to the most charming, delicious and unexpected places! The experience was a glimpse of a more local food and walking experience that we likely wouldn’t have found on our own. Gina went out of her way to address our interests and questions during and after our tour! Would highly recommend Gina and this tour!

Highly recommend! Ivonne tour guide! ☆☆ - Highly recommend! Ivonne was a fantastic tour guide who gave us a great introduction to Bogota/Candelaria! Graffiti, history, tea, fruits, treats, Tejo... the tour was varied and gave us insights into the city and the neighborhood that we never would have gotten had we not gone on the tour! Ivonne's passion for her job is evident and it was a real pleasure to spend the morning with her. Great way to start your trip in Bogota! Thank you!!

Beautiful tour, with warm people! - Our Guide was Jacky and we left delighted and happy with the tour! We were a group of only women and found it super enjoyable. The delicious tastings and even the hostel boys were super friendly. I had a little complication and everyone was very empathetic and cute to us. Thank you for everything to Jacky and the hostel boys! We take them in our hearts to Costa Rica!

Put on your walking shoes and check out this tour! - I loved everything about this experience - the sights we saw, the great food and drink we sampled, the small group size but most of all, I really appreciated our guide, Yaquelina. She posses so much knowledge about the area and it’s history, this tour was a really good introduction to the area. She didn’t hesitate to answer any and all questions. This tour is a great way to explore the Candalaria area of Bogota.

It was a good intro to the area but felt rushed - A fast pace walk through candelaria with short visits to places. Got to try some different fruits, chocolate and coffee. The tour felt really rushed and was finished in less than 3 hours. It would have been good to get a couple minutes to watch the street performers. We got a 10 min game of Tejo at the end.
