Private tour Zipaquira and Guatavita.

Published on Mar, 2025

My family and I took this private tour and it was informative, detailed and we felt cater to. I highly recommend it. Our guide Juan Camilo and our driver John Reyes were great.

Great day out of Bogota!!

Published on Feb, 2025

A truly wonderful day! The lagoon is stunning and the history fascinating! Prepare for some uphill climbing on a rough path but nothing too arduous and really worth it! The Salt Mine and the cathedral are beautiful and again the story really interesting. I would recommend this to anyone and it’s a great way to spend a day. The day was led by the amazing guide Sergio - informative, really friendly and very knowledgeable. We were driven by the super friendly and professional William!

Great experience around Bogota

Published on Jan, 2025

Excellent tour with the best guide David, he made very interesting historic presentation at Laugan Giatavita and in the Salt Cathedral in Zipaguira. It was really exciting experience. Highly recommend!

Very nice tour with very professional company Nomadas

Published on Jan, 2025

That was wonderful day. Our driver William and guide Laura were very good and professional. This tour is really nice and should be done if you came to Bogota. Really nice places to see.

Day visit to Guatavita Lagoon and Salt cathedral

Published on Sep, 2024

David was very knowledgeable about the tale of El Dorado and the biodiversity of the Guatavita lagoon. He was patient with our acclimatizing breathlessness on the steep walk up to the lagoon. Lunch was fun and vibrant with traditional Colombian food. We had no idea what to expect from the Salt cathedral but it was so much bigger and more unique than we thought. This long day trip is worth the visit to have a day away from the city and see two very special places.
