It's a must - I knew it was an underground cathedral in a salt mine but I was not expecting it to be huge - it really has a wow effect. Going with Nomadas made the tour better: Private service, small group (it was just 3 of us, all traveling solo), felt super comfortable. They picked me up at the hotel and after the tour, we had a traditional Colombian lunch with a Costa Rican welcome just because I was there 🫶 they do pay attention to details. It was a lovely experience; I 100% recommend it, Javier was great!

A guide from the BEST guide. - This experience was wonderful and very informative, the admission was smooth and easy the fees wasn’t bad at all. The tour of the mines lasted about 2 hours but the entire trip was 8hrs. Overall out tour guide Cristian was amazing, patient (especially all the stop for photos) he did a wonderful job and I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone.

Fascinating day expertly led. - This was a great day. Much fuller than I expected and well worth the money. The ticket to the Salt Cathedral is not included but it’s worth paying for this tour for the transport and guidance and help provided by Christian himself. We were picked up at 9am and didn’t get back until about 6pm but Christian never once rushed us. So it was a full day but also very relaxed. Christian doesn’t speak much English but he kept us fully informed with a translation app and answered every question we asked. It wasn’t a problem at all. Don’t worry about that. He even translated with some humour to create a good vibe on our group of 7 (us and a family from Guyana) The cathedral itself was amazing and so interesting and it wasn’t over crowded at all at the mat time of day. (11am) Plus, Christian took us to a GREAT lace for lunch with some live Columbian music and a real authentic feel. A great day made all the better with the help of Christian. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
