Jam packed day, but so worth it

Published on Mar, 2025

Joined in by myself on this group tour and I felt safe and well taken care of. Camilo was an amazing tour guide. He was able to keep our diverse group (Brazil, France, Mexico, U.S.) informed thoughout the tour. Our two long activities, Guatavita Lake and the salt cathedral, were sandwiched in between food and culture stops, so it didn’t feel so long. To get to the lake you have to hike quite a ways and it was tiring, so be ready. Lots more walking at the cathedral. All worth it! Thoroughly recommend this excursion if you have a whole day to spare. And Nestor, our driver, kept us safe even in the rain.

Best of Colombia, esp with Diego!

Long, good and informative day. Beautiful lagoon hike and legend of El Dorado. The Salt Cathedral was moving. Lunch surprisingly very good! Diego is an excellent guide- he managed all the details, and the group was fun.

A Great Full Day to Experience the Sites

Mili my tour guide was awesome. She has such great energy,. She took the time to explain everything in Spanish and English. I would recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Bogota. Especially English speakers.

Great way to see sites outside of Bogota

Published on Feb, 2025

We loved this tour! It was great to spend a day outside of the city after seeing a lot of the urban sites. Camilo was a wonderful guide and taught us so much about what we were seeing, as well as lots of other interesting information about Colombia. It’s a long day, but well worth it.
