Diego and this tour are REMARKABLE! - My tour guide, Diego, was absolutely amazing. He provided the tour, even though I was the only one that booked that day. He walked me through the rain with a smile and was completely professional and knowledgeable and personable the entire tour. I give him five stars. His work with your agency is, very valuable. We took some incredible pictures that I shared with people at home who will be taking the tour in the future as well. Thank you again, Diego!

Excellent Graffiti Tour in Bogota - We had a wonderful tour with I believe his name was Gerald. His English was excellent, and he was full of great information. He really gave us an appreciation for the graffiti as he explained what these men from both historical and political standpoint. He provided much history along the way. I would highly recommend this tour to get a great overview of the graffiti, but also a good background of the history of the city and country. He also provided many explanations of the food as we passed by the various street vendors and walked through the market.

Awesome Time - Andrea was an exceptional guide during my experience with Capitol Graffiti Tours in Bogotá. This tour has been the most memorable of all the activities I've done so far in the city. Andrea was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and made the experience feel personal like I was exploring the city with a close friend rather than just a guide. Her passion for the vibrant street art scene and deep understanding of the city's history truly shone through. I would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and engaging way to discover Bogotá's artistic side.

Very disappointed - In the instructions on where to meet the guide it said next to yellow umbrella but there wasn't one. Note that there about 20 umbrella's that are 5ft wide and there are vendors under them. I was looking for one like that. 1) I went to their address and they didn't speak english so they finally put a location on my phone google maps and said that's where it starts. 2) I went there which is about 1 KM and didn't find anyone. I asked a passerby and he reviewed my reservation and said you were at the right spot. 3) I went back and still didn't find yellow umbrella. I went to their office again and still no luck and they looking at each other, acting like they were calling someone. 4) I went back to the location and found a person with an umbrella. Big difference between an Umbrella and 'Person with an umbrella' 5) The guide said I was the only one in English and they only had one guide. My options were to leave or pick another tour or tag along and he would try to talk when possible. I was like the mistreated child in that group not able to understand anything as I don't speak Spanish. Very disappointed with Gran Colombia Tours.
