Traveler reviews
Fabulous tour with Jose, getting to know Bogota from its many facets
This was a fabulous experience, very fitting for my first day in Bogota, and much due to the great spirits and wonderful enthusiasm of our guide, Jose. He not only has an endless treasure trove of historical knowledge to share but also is super flexible in terms of the group's wishes and questions. He makes a point to help us understand the societal, political, historical, culinary and multi-racial dimensions of this beautiful city. Highly recommended.
Disappointing, unmotivated guide.
The tour did not match the description on the website. A lot of time wasted in uninteresting places. The guide seemed uninterested. We would have liked to learn about the history of La Candelaria and Bogota, and about the architecture.
La Candelaría Walking Tour
Fantastic few hours exploring the history of La Candelaría. I’d highly recommend if you want to learn about the history of this part of the city!
My great guide
It was an excellent tour. I want to make a special mention of our guide, a great speaker, with historical and charismatic stories that make this experience something unique.
Excellent Walking Tour
We had the best guide - very knowledgeable. It is nice to have a Guide who loves her city, is enthusiastic about sharing historical facts and local stories, and is simply very warm and personable.
