An amazing time through enchanting Bogotá - This tour was one of my major highlights of visiting Bogotá. Pick up from hotel was on time at 8 am. I couldn't have asked for a better tour guide, Rodrigo, and driver, Cesar. Both were very nice and I felt comfortable throughout the tour. Rodrigo is an awesome guide, very kind and attentive to any requests made. Very informative regarding all destinations that was in the itinerary. Communication was excellent. I learned so much about Bogotá's history that I felt so in awe regarding important historical figures and places that we came across. I felt like a local and tried typical Colombian foods. I HIGHLY recommend the ajiaco and tamales colombianos. SO GOOD. Bogotá is an enchanting place and I am so glad I tried this tour. Bring comfy shoes for you will walk through time and see the history of Bogotá! Thank you for an amazing tour.

Not Cheap & Not Perfect - My guide & driver were pleasant; however, they were late due to traffic. We also missed a key site (Museo del Oro) as it closed for the day before we got there. FYI, I inquired about that site upon pickup - meaning, a prioirity for me.
It was a nice, tiring day; but, for the premium price point I did not expect hiccups.

Horrible experience, stay away - Paid 190 dlls for this tour. All museums were closed due to it being a Monday, the guide wasn’t aware of this. Just strolled down the seventh and went to montserrate. Guide forced my friend to give him a good review, while he was driving us back to our airbnb. Also, kept asking for her phone to call the driver. Lack of professionalism. Not worth the price. Museum entrances are 2 dlls top per person and montserrate is less than 10 bucks round trip. We regret taking this, we had more information getting into the museums and actually reading the notes in there.
We paid 190 dlls for the tour, all museums were closed because it was Monday, a fact that the guide himself did not know. We just walked down the seventh and went to monstsereate and the bogota museum (which is free). The guide spent the day complaining that the agency was very concerned about the review. I practically forced my friend to give her a positive review while we were in the car on our way to our airbnb. Plus he asked her for her phone a couple of times to talk to the driver because she had no credit. Super unprofessional, expensive, and the
Most museums are free by bogota or cost 2 dlls admission. (montserrate admission is less than 10 dlls round trip). I do not provide any information worth the price, we regret that we did not cancel and took advantage of day x our account.
