Excellent guided tour - An excellent guided tour of a colony little known to visitors to Bogotá. It is a surprising neighborhood, with a very particular architecture. There is also talk of urban graffiti during this visit.

Great local tour of Teusaquillo - Daniel gave us a tour through Teusaquillo’s different neighborhoods (Santa Anna, Magdalena, Santa Teresita and Parkway to name a few.). I liked that it was off the beaten path. He was very informative about the neighborhood, local grafitti art and Colombian political history. We visited an art studio and they let us make a stencil. We ended the tour with a beer.

A new experience - We really enjoyed walking around a different (and quieter) part of the city and seeing some of the art that had been done on the houses. We really loved the chance to do some graffiti art! And the coffee at the end was a perfect finish.
