I would give it 6 out of 5! I am travelling solo so I was nervous about going around in Bogotá on my own during my 20 hour layover. But Juan made it a fabulous experience. I learned so much from him. His depth of knowledge is remarkable. He obviously enjoys his role as a tour guide. I would highly recommend this tour with Juan to anyone who wants to learn and enjoy Bogotá in a few hours.Gio was an awesome and very knowledgeable guide.

Gio was an awesome and very knowledgeable guide. I went on a Wednesday which was great in terms of avoiding crowds. For the 7H option, it was a fully comprehensive tour covering all the highlights and great if you don’t have too much time in Bogota. Gio knows his stuff and being on a private tour by myself made for a great personal experience. He made sure to stop at all the important intervals and explained all the fascinating history and background in detail which I appreciated. Apart from seeing all the great sights - the fruit, chocolate, chicha, coffee etc tasting was great. I’m a bit of a coffee snob and especially loved the cafe we stopped at for the coffee tasting. Such an awesome tour! Would recommend!It was a great experience my wife and I loved it. Camila, the guide who accompanied us, was a sweetheart, besides being very friendly and polite, she knows all the history and politics of Colombia and greatly enriched our tour with many details. Thank you very much Camilla. I would also like to ...
