Great & excellent tour guide! (July) - July, our tour guide was really great and goes the extra mile to bring us experience more that is not included in our tour. Tour experience is wonderful and we did not feel bored or tired during the 6-7hours tour which is all by foot. We get to explore many places and know many history about bogota and Colombia. We personally highly recommend booking this tour when you’re in Bogota.

Detailed and Good Overview - Went on the Bogotá City Tour (including Monserrate and Museo del Oro) with Elizabeth. She did an excellent job of explaining the history behind the different places we visited and including a sampler of traditional Colombian food as well. She also customized the tour a bit to fit my interests (such as including more of the churches) and restrictions (vegetarian). Overall, a great experience.

Bogota in a few hours - This was my first time in Colombia. I didn't know what to expect. But this tour was excellent. Marcela is fantastic. I felt safe and well-informed, thanks to her. Wear comfy shoes because you are going to walk a lot. But it's worth it.

Super tour option - This tour was the best Nathalia our guide knows a lot about culture and history, she explained a lot to us and we really enjoyed each place we went to, the food was incredible especially because they are local places, you do have to be prepared to walk around at least 8 hours, as a suggestion, bring comfortable tennis shoes to last the entire tour, highly recommended
