La Candelaria with Santi

Published on Mar, 2025

Santi was an absolutely spectacular guide and this tour was a great intro to the La Candelaria area. I will admit I usually get bored on these sorts of tours, but he kept my interest the entire time. The stories he told were full of detail and he's very engaging. I had such a great experience I'm thinking about doing another one of their tours tomorrow. Highly recommend!

It was the second time we do a tour with Beyond Colombia and we highly recommend them!! Very professional and knowledgeable guides!! We explored downtown Bogota with Sergio and he kept our interest throughout the tour with the history facts as well as with plenty information on how the daily life is today!!

A great time!

A great time… we would definitely discover Natalia as our guide. She was really good and told us all sorts of things we never have known if of we’d been in Bogota on our own

Great time

Published on Mar, 2025
