Traveler reviews
This tour was a great way...
This tour was a great way to see the old city center of Bogata. Our tour guide Maria was very knowledgeable about the area and showed us a good time.
My first visit to Colombia
Leslie was a great guide for my private tour with hotel pickup. La Candelaria is a wonderful introduction to Bogota and a must-see. Colour, flavour, ambience, culture, music and dancing. It’s all there!
Great tour
We loved our tour around the old town seeing all the graffiti Our guide gave us lots of information about the history and suggestions of restaurants etc We even tried the traditional cheese with hot chocolate Camillo was very friendly and s as great guide very patient with us as we can’t walk to far
Wet but worth it
Good tour with Andreu. It started raining about 10 minutes into the tour and it rained the entire time. Despite the adverse conditions, Andreu did his best to keep us comfortable and share his vast knowledge of the Candalaria area. He shared a lot of history of the country in general and the Bogota region. We walked to many of the area highlights and had a delicious cup of coffee at a wonderful little cafe. He pointed out restaurants, coffee shops, etc that we might want to try on our own. Good tour.
Great way to explore - and eat!
Juana was the best guide! Very informative and knowledgeable. It was like being with a friend. I saw a lot and got to try lots of local snacks and drinks. Recommend!
