A worthwhile experience! - Incredible experience. The team was very responsive from pre-planning information, to day of and during. Our guide, Laura, was very knowledgeable, friendly, and wonderful to have. The Cathedral itself was very unique and unlike anything we have experienced or seen before. Lunch was very delicious, and we were able to walk around the town. We would absolutely recommend if you need a few hours to explore something just outside of Bogota and have the extra time.

Fantastic Experience - The Cathedral of Salt is a must-see tour! Considered the No. 1 wonder of Colombia, it makes judgment to the ranking. The complex is very well taken care of. The experience was even better because the company Nomades was hired, who sent us the guide Jhovanny and the driver Xavier who made the tour unforgettable.

Private Tour of Sal Cathedral - We had an excellent experience with our driver Cristian during our tour to Zipaquirá. He was very punctual in picking us up and was always attentive to our needs. He is a very respectful, friendly person and made us feel very comfortable throughout the tour. He drove very cautiously, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. In addition, he shared some interesting facts about the Cathedral of Sal and also took us to know the Independence Square and the cathedral of the town of Zipaquirá. We also recommended eating in Brasas del Llano, where the food was delicious and the service was very good. Undoubtedly a very pleasant experience thanks to their excellent service. Fully recommended!

Unforgettable Tour to the Salt Cathedral - Me and a friend did a guided tour through the Nomades to the Cathedral of Salt that will be unforgettable. Besides everything good that involved the experience, the guide Jhovanny was exceptional, showing great knowledge and interest in informing us of historical details and curiosities. We also had the care of the driver Xavier, very kind, polite and quiet to drive.
