Awesome Professional Tour - We had an incredible experience with Nomads Tours and our fantastic guide, Jhovannoty! From start to finish, everything was seamless and well-organized. The private tour to the Salt Cathedral—about an hour outside of Bogotá—was absolutely worth it. Jhovannoty took care of everything, from private transportation to entrance tickets, parking, and all associated costs, making the trip completely stress-free. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing the history and significance of the site, which made the experience even more enriching. To top it all off, our tour included lunch at a really unique and amazing restaurant, which was a perfect way to wrap up the day. The food was delicious, and the setting added to the experience. If you’re looking for a well-organized, immersive, and enjoyable private tour, we highly recommend Jhovannoty and Nomads Tours. This was one of the highlights of our trip.

Cathedral of the Salt - Imperdible - The tour to the Cathedral of Salt and Zipaquirá is a must for those who come to Bogotá!!! We were taken care of by William of the Nomads. We couldn't be better advised. William showed himself extremely attentive and concerned, from beginning to end; passing us informing about everything we asked and much more!! Nice walk. Super recomendo.
