Bogota Botero Museum Guided Tour
Description
More than a guided tour, this experience will allow you to discover Fernando Botero’s universe from a completely different perspective. Although admission to the museum is free, many of the stories, influences and details that shaped his work often go unnoticed by those who tour it on their own. Through participatory activities and easy-to-understand explanations, you will learn to observe his works with new eyes, understand the evolution of his style, his vision of art and discover the history of the extraordinary donation that gave rise to one of the most important collections in Colombia. Ideal for travelers of all ages, families, culture lovers and anyone who wants to live the Botero Museum in a dynamic, interactive and knowledge-free way.

We had an amazing time on the museum tour with our guide, Jose. He led a fun, engaging tour and was very knowledgeable about the history of Botero and how his art evolved over time, as well as the other artists and works we saw in the museum. This was definitely a must-do tour because a lot of the information Jose gave to us could not be found simply by walking around the museum or by reading the plaques. He also gave us great food recommendations and was very nice! I feel like I understand Botero’s art now. 10/10 🙌
