Sergio and Alexander gave us a wonderful tour. It was very informative and touched on many aspects you won’t find in a typical tour. Not only did we learn about the history of Bogotá but also Flora, fauna, and many beautiful observations about art. We even had a fruit tasting and visited a market. I highly recommend and you will be extremely lucky to have such a wonderful tour guide.
Sergi and Brandon were awesome - very knowledgeable and they really made the whole trip a fantastic Colombia experience- would recommend!!!
Our guide Jhovanny, to begin with, he spoke and understood English perfectly which was of great benefit to me. Pickup time was exact and he walked us back to our hotel at tour’s end. You could tell he loved his job and nothing ever felt rehearsed or rushed. After awhile he came across as an old friend giving you a tour of a city he loved. I was delighted that we took this tour and Jhovanny definitely was a perfect guide. I highly recommend him and this tour for a day that will surpass your expectations.
Our tour guide Daniel was amazing- so full of knowledge and information. So very helpful. Thank you!
Daniel was a knowledgeable guide that knew so many details of every facet of the trip. Start earlier in the day if you can.
Excellent experience with Sergio. Too much good vibe. We spent the entire tour well entertained. We learned and laughed a lot. The driver was very kind as well. We had a great time. A thousand thanks.
Very good! Excellent Sergio was very kind, explaining every detail, every corner, every route. We made good friends. And the driver Brandon was also very kind. We were never bored haha. A thousand thanks! 10/10
Extremely well-organised and enjoyable 6 hour whistle stop tour to hit some of Bogotá’s sights by way of very useful orientation or for those, like me, with a short time window at leisure in the city. Seamless transfers from and back to the hotel and very personable, knowledgeable guide with excellent English.
It was a great experience for the whole family, Jhovanny and Eduardo were always very attentive, with explanations and pauses that enriched every stop. The food was delicious. Highly recommended.
Great tour if you have limited time but want a snapshot of Bogota. Guide was knowledgable. Sites were fantastic
