Beautiful Bogota

I was met at my hotel and taken straight to the museums & La Candeleria district. Beatriz, my guide, was pleasant and very well informed. Monserrate was a great experience (but very cool as a result of intermittent showers) & the views of Bogota & the surrounding areas were a sight to behold. Beatriz is a fountain of knowledge & one of the kindest persons I've met on this trip!

Everyone knows David!

David was great! They facilitated everything from pick up , the sights, and drop off and accommodated our 5 and 6 year old by even throwing a playground stop in the tour. David was super knowledgeable about all the sites and the stops and seemed to also know everyone in Bogota. Every couple steps, he was saying hi to someone. He was great at taking us to some local stops in the candelaria, and answered all our questions. It was awesome!
