Great tour. Absolutely amazing tour guide. Gerald was awesome!

My partner and I had a great time on this tour. Many said to just book the ticket for the Funicular and go but I am happy I did the tour because I was able to get an in-depth knowledge of Monserrate, something I would not have gotten if I just went on my own. Everything was explained well and all of my questions were answered. I am happy that I did this tour and I would encourage anyone who wants to learn the history to book this tour. Once the tour concludes you are free to stay and do your own exploration which we did. So I did not feel rushed at all. If you go on the weekends, especially on Sunday expect long lines when it comes to the cable car or the funicular.
Thank you so much for this review. We love hearing that the tour added something you wouldn’t have gotten by visiting Monserrate on your own. It’s great knowing the history and explanations made the experience more meaningful for you. Thanks for spending part of your trip with us!
Paola Rivera was great as our guide explaining all the details and history about the mountain, the sanctuary, city of Bogota and had great energy throughout our tour.

The guide was easy to find and had good knowledge of the history of Monserrate. Our tickets included the cable car which was a good choice as walking up at 10000ft altitude would have done us.
