Punctual and professional. - Completely happy with our transfers airport/hotel/airport in Bogota and the visit to Zipaquira. Luis Felipe and his brother Armando were punctual and very professional. Provided a lot of relevant information and made us feel welcomed. Highly recommend their services.

Outstanding Driver and Guide in Bogotá - We had the pleasure of traveling with Luis from Bogotá to Zipaquirá, with a stop at Andrés Carne de Res on the way back to our hotel in Bogotá. Luis deserves a full 5/5 stars!
The car was comfortable, and his driving was smooth and safe. Luis was incredibly friendly, open-minded, and shared so much fascinating information about the country and its people during the journey. We asked him countless questions, and he always had an insightful answer. He even took care of making our restaurant reservation for us.
If you’re visiting Bogotá and need a driver for day trips or even just to get around the city, we highly recommend Luis. His English is excellent, making communication effortless. An outstanding experience overall!

Pleasant experience - My mom and I had the opportunity to book this service to Zipaquira's Catedral de Sal and had a wonderful time. I can tell Luis is very knowledgeable as well as passionate about his work. Based on this experience we are looking forward to coming back to Colombia and explore other destinations such as Medellin.

My new go to guide for Colombia - Had an amazing tour with Luis, great communication from reaching out to him, before pickup and great conversation during the drive while he pointed out & we discussed things along the way to the Catedral. Being from different countries we engaged in discussions of our current events & focused on Colombia as much as possible. I really didn't have a game plan, just a free day so he offered other things along the way and a little off our path. I look forward to my next journey with him, maybe even in another city.

The best tour guide - Luis Felipe and his brother are excellent. Super friendly people, flexible to changes, without rushing, with a lot of knowledge of everything about Bogotá. I travel a lot and I must admit that this was the best tour guide we have had to date. He also gave me the City Tour which was SPECTACULAR. Recommended 200%

Hired “Private driver”…and got one of the best, entertaining and knowledgeable tour guide in Luis! - We found Luis through Viator for a private driver to the Salt Cathedral 1.5 hour drive outside of Bogota. He was extremely proactive with communication ahead of time and arrived early to pick us up at our hotel. While we only hired him for the drive, we were treated to an amazing overview of the history of Columbia, Bogota and the entire South American region. He had an awesome personality and made the 3 hours of travel seem much shorter. We would highly recommend Luis and his company for anyone wishing to travel to and learn about this amazing country!

Very professional and reliable! - We used this company for both an airport transfer and car service to the Salt Cathedral and Andres Carne de Res Restaurant. It was our first time in Colombia and Luis was at the airport on time with a clearly marked sign. He helped us with our bags and showed us where to buy a SIM card. Since we don’t speak Spanish, he was kind enough to park his car and escort us into our AirBnb building and helped us communicate with the front door staff, which we really appreciated. The next day, Luis drove us to the Salt Cathedral and also to Andres Carne de Res restaurant in Chia. He was very professional, spoke English well, and was patient with our young children. Overall, I highly recommend Luis and we had a very smooth and pleasant trip.
