La Candelaria, Mount Monserrate and Museo del Oro in One Day in Bogota

mrajan2, Jul 2025

Knowledgeable and professional tour guide

I was pleasantly surprised that I was the only person on this tour (I have some health issues and I was worried that I might slow down others on the tour)! Anyway, Natalia Cardenas was a wonderful tour guide - she was very knowledgeable, professional and personable! I really enjoyed the tour and it was well worth the price I paid for it. Highly recommended!!!

Private Guided Tour of Bogotá's Gold Museum with Transport

Brett_A, Feb 2025

A fabulous museum and a very talented guide

Bogotá’s gold museum is simply wonderful! Tens of thousands of pieces of gold, mostly from before the Spanish Inquisition. The best of the best - and the videos on how the objects were made were excellent. Add to that an exceptional guide, Mauricio, who knew how to make history come alive - as well as his way around the museum - and this was one of the best museum experiences possible.

5 Stars – Excellent Tour with Alejandro in Bogotá

We had a fantastic tour with Alejandro, visiting the Museo del Oro and Monserrate in Bogotá. Alejandro was both knowledgeable and spirited — his energy and passion for Colombian history made the experience truly memorable. His deep understanding of the artifacts and stories in the Museo del Oro brought the exhibits to life in a way that was both enriching and engaging. At Monserrate, he balanced insightful commentary with just the right touch of humor and charm. Highly recommend Alejandro as a guide — he made our visit both educational and fun!
