Natalia (Nat) is a fantastic guide!

Published on Feb, 2025

Natalia was my guide and she was fantastic. Very personable and her English was very good. She even taught me quite a few new Spanish words. We walked the La Candelaria area and we stopped in many spots to get the feeling of the historic area of Bogota. I don't think I would have enjoyed it as much if I didn't do this tour. I would recommend this for any first time visitor of Bogota. It is well worth it Advice: the morning timeslot has smaller group than the afternoon.

Great intro into Bogata!

Published on Feb, 2025

We had a great tour on our first day in Bogata. Milena was amazing and we enjoyed all the art work in the beautiful city and hearing about the history from a local

Awesome guide - so glad I checked it out

Published on Nov, 2024

Had a great time seeing La Calendaria with Lorenzo, who’s such a fantastic person. I booked last minute and very glad I did. Not seeing La Candelaria while in Bogota would be a tragedy. My guide new the district and the people there so well. I learned a ton and also asked many questions about the neighborhood, history and to be honest, everything about Bogota and Colombia. I’d highly recommend the tour and wish i had more time to do another with Lorenzo

Great tour, learned a lot about history od Colombia and Bogotá, and got to taste some local fruits, coffee and traditional chocolate with cheese.

Absolutely wonderful!

Published on Sep, 2024

Our tour guide, Gina, took us to the most charming, delicious and unexpected places! The experience was a glimpse of a more local food and walking experience that we likely wouldn’t have found on our own. Gina went out of her way to address our interests and questions during and after our tour! Would highly recommend Gina and this tour!
