We will start our city tour Bogota picking you up at your hotel/bnb in a comfortable car. Then we will go to our first stop: Monserrate Hilltop!

 

This is one of the main attractions of Bogota, since it is one of the protectors of our city and also the owner of one of the best panoramic views of the capital. We will reach the top, located at 3.125 meters (10.341 feets) above sea level, by cable car or funicular.

Then, go through the 7th street, crowded with talented street artists and local stores, traditionally known as Royal Street. Once we reach Santander Square, we will take you on a guided tour inside the Gold Museum, as it is always great to have someone in there to explain what these pre-hispanic figures mean, how they are related to our different ancestral cultures and how/why they used them.

Is time for a break and go to Origen Bistro, an awarded restaurant known for its unique approach to local gastronomy and our personal favorite restaurant to have traditional dishes.
