Amazing Day and Experience! - We just finished this fantastic day with Luis Felipe and our wonderful driver, Dario! The itinerary for the day is exactly as laid out in the posting, but it is so much more than just that! Luis Felipe is a professional and passionate guide who is an advocate for the lovely country of Columbia, its people, and its food. Being able to visit so many areas of the city, seeing this family company’s dedication to supporting some amazing small businesses, and Luis Felipe’s knowledge and engaging information made this day even better than we expected! Everywhere we went we were met with kindness, delicious products, and an education which we were wanting. This is a must do if you would like to experience the genuine and rich culture of the food and people of Bogotá!

Fantastic tour. Lots of food. - It was great to try all kinds of fruits I had never seen before at the marketplace. Then we tried fantastic arepas. Had a tasting of different chocolates at a small facility. Yum.
Then came a wonderful lunch. Followed by a tour of different neighborhoods of Bogota. The guide was very knowledgeable and informative.
There was so much food, I didn't need to eat anything the rest of the day. I must say this was one of the best tours I have ever been on.

Food tour with local culture - This tour is a must do in my opinion, when visiting a new destination, nothing lets you understand the culture of the city more than food. Alejandro and Luis are two brothers that will take you on this journey. They picked us up from our hotel. We’re very warm and personable and very knowledgeable about their city and country and culture. We stopped at a food market and we tasted a variety of avocados and exotic fruits. This was one of my favorite parts of the day next we went to a delicious Arepa restaurant it was definitely my favorite Arepa that I had in all of Columbia. We went into another neighborhood and had a chocolate tasting experience and were able to make her own chocolate bar. We continued on our journey into another lively local neighborhood for a delicious lunch, which we all sat together had conversation and get to know each other. After lunch, we drove to a coffee shop, and I truly had the best cappuccino that I’ve ever had in my life. And our final stop was some beer tasting. I wish I would’ve known of these two gentlemen, before I booked any of my other tours, they would have been on my First, and only choice. this truly was a great day to see the city to taste the food to get to know these two great local guys. Thank you Alejandro and Luis for the amazing day. John and Erick from Chicago

Amazing days in Bogata - This tour was a must for us, wanting to try local foods and exotic fruits, delicious coffees, and chocolates. This trip ended up being so much more Alejandro and Luis Felipe picked us up very warm and inviting hosts. This tour had such a personal touch getting information about the city about the culture about the country, plus getting to know our tour guides on a personal level to me always makes my vacation better. I believe this tour should be on everyone’s must do list or at least use Alejandro and Luis Felipe for one of their other mini tours. I took tours with other companies, and was disappointed that I did not have them for every one of my tours in Bogata. Thank you Alejandro and Luis Felippe for the amazing time. John and Erick from Chicago.

Great experience - I would like to start off by saying this private tour that I took went above and beyond. The owners are just two brothers that run this small company Luis and Alejandro, they both were very attentive to my needs and gave me great information about Colombia. Myself being Mexican American I consider Colombia my home away from home, I loved all the beautiful people and this beautiful country. Please consider contracting their services you won’t regret it.

Personal, informative and comprehensive tour of Bogotá - Luis Felipe and his brother Alejandro provided us with a beautifully personalised and historically informative tour of Bogotá. We decided to go for an early start up Monserrate (definitely advisable to avoid the queues!), had a walking tour through La Candelaria with trips to some museums, then our last section was a tasting tour of cacao, coffee, pastries before we were recommended somewhere for lunch. All throughout Luis Felipe provided both historical information and his own lived experiences, allowing us to learn much more about Bogotá and Colombia as a whole than if we'd taken ourselves on the tour. We would very highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bogotá, whether on a short layover or a longer stay, you won't regret this experience!

Luis went the extra mile! - Luis provided our family with a thorough and insightful understanding of today’s Bogota, its history, and its people. He gave us more time than required, answered every question we had, and paced the tour well. He is passionate about his country and speaks excellent English. Our trip to Bogota was definitely enriched thanks to Luis and he left us discussing some of his insights long after the tour. He gets thumbs-up from our family.

Highly recommended walking tour - Such an awesome tour! Really learnt a lot about the city of Bogota. Our tour guide Luis was awesome, told us so much about the city. He not only explained our destinations but also talked about Colombian / Bogota culture and gave tips of what else to do in the city, which was really cool. He even showed us a place that sold delicious empanadas at very cheap prices. Really recommend this walking tour!
