Edwin was our driver, and the journey was comfortable, safe and on time. Edwin’s English was excellent. From the moment we began, Edwin impressed us with his extensive knowledge of the Bogota and its surroundings. The Salt Cathedral, Zipaquirá together with drive out of the city was worth seeing. He made our trip more than just a drive. It became an enriching cultural experience. We would highly recommend him to anyone seeking not only transportation, but also a deeper understanding of Bogota from a local’s perspective.
Filipe was prompt, knowledgeable and friendly as well as professional at all times

An amazing experience in Zipaquirá. The tour was very well organized from the start, the transportation was punctual and comfortable, and the guide was always attentive and willing to answer all our questions.
