Customer Reviews
We requested the service the day before and very late and yet they confirmed almost instantly. Our driver, Pedro, arrived punctually at 8 o'clock at our hotel. He explained on the way what we were going to see, gave us some very useful tips and left us at the door of the Cathedral with our entrance tickets which included a guide in Spanish. Although the tour to the Cathedral is two hours, we spent more than four hours seeing all the attractions inside and they did not put any problem in us to take it easy, on the contrary, they encouraged us to enjoy it. Afterwards Pedro took us to see the center of Zipaquira and to have lunch in a typical Colombian restaurant. Everything was delicious and then he dropped us off at the door of the hotel. Perfect, thank you very much!
Joelle was a really nice and funny guide! I appreciated her accompaniment. The trip to guatavita was totally worth it!
Organization was great and the guide had great knowledge . Salt cathedral is impressive and a must see if you stay in Bogota.
