Perfect day in Bogota - Just the right amount of time if you have little ones with short attention span and would like to see the historic center. Our tour guide was Juan Carlos and he was very informative and good with our 10 year old son. We got a thorough review of the history of Bogota and got to stop at several spots where we had delicious Columbian coffee and sampled exotic fruits. The price of the tour was very worth it and affordable for what you get. 3 hours was the perfect amount of time for our family. Private pickup from the hotel and drop off was also very much appreciated, as none of us spoke Spanish. We would definitely recommend and you will be lucky if you get Juan Carlos!

Amazing afternoon in Botoga!! - This trip is so enjoyable…seeing the history, visiting the market and walking the old town is just magical. Our tour guide was amazing, very knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. Everyone was on time and the chocolates and coffee not to mention the fruit sampling were just superb! I highly recommend this tour…

Exceptional walking tour. Highly recommended! - Natalie was a fantastic guide. She was fun and energetic and incredibly knowledgeable. My friend and I are history nerds and she really geared the tour to our intellectual needs which we greatly appreciated. Another guide might have just given us there routine speeches, but she really engaged us and we were thrilled by the experience. The food and coffee tastings were terrific. 10/10 all around.

La Candelaria Tour - I had a fun experience with Juana who offered some great historic information of the origins of the city. She also gives her perspectives from a local perspective which I found very interesting. She had a great sense of humor and made it a fun day. Recommended.

Grat day-tour... ask for Leslie - Leslie was a wonderful guide. Our day with her was fun, informative and filled with smiles. From the time of our pick-up to the end of the day, we saw and did a lot. Monserrate is iconic and our time there was just great. We avoided crowds with our weekday timing, and the weather cooperated. She led us though parks and city streets with a lively and informative narrative catered to our questions and interests.

Great tour from Lorena - Lorena was a wonderful guide. She is knowledgeable, friendly and very easy going. She was the perfect guide for us, and made sure to be inclusive to my partner - we've had issues in the past, mostly with male guides not being inclusive. So we had a wonderful time and we'd absolutely work with Lorena again.

Candelaria tour - With the ugly rain, we were worried about the walking tour but Jose our guide did the food tastings early as they were under cover. As it turned out the only rain happened on our walk back to our hotel. Just a lighter annoying type and not the torrential we had earlier. The tour was great. Learned a lot and appreciated his ability to be so flexible. He explained the history of Bogota and Columbia. I’d recommend this tour to anyone.

Great tour, even with small children. - It was the perfect tour for us. Having been to Bogotà a couple of times before, we had never really dared to visit the central part of the city by ourselves. In part because of not speaking spanish and also not knowing what areas are safe. Lorena our guide was great. She told us lots of things we would never have understood or figured out had we gone by ourselves. It really made our day. And also, travelling with a baby and a toddler worked really well. Our driver was so sweet, as we forgot that our daughter gets car-sick it wasn't an issue for him. He tried to drive really smooth and frequently checked that everything was allright. So, all thumbs up from us!
