          Great!
          Our guide had a fantastic knowledge base of the political and historical background of Bogotá’s street art. It was an amazing tour that I would recommend the tour to anyone.

          Best way to see Candelaria
          Brilliant day out. If you get the chance this is a great way to see some of the sights of the Candelaria area. The guide was knowledgeable and helpful and even spoke some slow Spanish to help me learn.

          Our guide Andres was very informative. He showed us many interesting points in the city. We would not have seen so much without him.

          Informational tour
          My friend and I took this private tour and soaked in a lot of information as our guide took us around and informed us about the history of Colombia. We ate different fruits, went to several museums and tried the best Colombian coffee (not tinto!), she spoke about murals we saw and buildings. She did great, her English is perfect and she was helpful with extra tips at the end of the tour so we could check out other areas!

          Mission not so impossible
          The hike was a mission on its own. A tree fell and we had to take a different route but Camilo was able to get us there! I enjoyed the hike and the view. It was great that we had it to ourselves for a bit for pictures and soaking in the view. We enjoyed the lunch by the water restaurant.

          Very good transfer. Easy contact via WhatsApp. They respond very fast. Our plane was delayed, we could very easy arrange new pick up time while it was mid night. Driver was very friendly to help and drive you safe to your hotel.

          Excellent birding experience
          Wonderful experience. Our guide, Diego, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the region and its wildlife. Great communication before the tour, and it was well organized. We saw all the target species I was hoping to see, plus many more. We went on a Thursday morning and the trail was not crowded at all. I definitely recommend this tour to bird lovers!

        Cristian, our tour guide was extremely professional and friendly. He was on-time and waited for us at our hotel, as well as the pick-up driver (extremely helpful as well). He made sure to ask for any food allergies or food we do not like, to make the experience more enjoyable. He was extremely knowledgeable and had much historical history to share with us related to food & the culture. Felt safe every step of the way, and the food was delicious! We tasted many different foods. Come with an appetite!

        We did the Candelaria food tour with Julian. He is a very interesting conversationalist and it was a pleasure to spend the evening with him. The places we went were unique and we never would have found them on our own. It was enough food for dinner, plus coffee at a charming coffee shop. Highly recommended!

        I did the tour with Lizbeth and it was amazing! She made sure enough time was spent at many restaurants around the Candelaria. I'm really glad it was at this historic district with many options so we could pick and choose what to get. I had chocolate con queso, buñuelos, ajiaco santafereño, arepas, and fruits! It was a good amount! She also explained everything about the city and it's history. Overall it was a good introduction to Bogotá.
