Edgar is a very gracious and knowledgeable host. He is very passionate about his country and what he does. It was a great way to spend the day and get to know the different neighborhoods in Bogota. For those that want a personalized tour, this is the way to go. It is not the cheapest tour, but you get what... More

Rather than sit in the airport for 11 hours, we arranged for a day trip of Bogata with Edgar. What a spectacular time we had! We were picked up at 7:30 am and spent the next 8 hours visiting a variety of neighborhoods, the old town, museums, and Monserrate. The best part was chatting with Edgar whose knowledge and enthusiasm... More

My husband and I recently spent 3 days in Bogota and Edgar was our tour guide. Initially booked as a 1/2 day tour, he spent almost the entire day showing us Bogota. He's knowledgeable and was a pleasure to be with. He took us from one end of the city to the other and really knows how to get around... More

I recently accompanied my sister during her business trip to Bogota, Colombia...a first for us both.I decided to embark on a few day trips to soak up as much as I could in 3 days. Having read the reviews on Explora Bogota I booked Edgar initially for a city tour and Zipaquira..well worth seeing. It was so enjoyable that I... More

Visiting Bogota for the time and having only Saturday free from business commitments I have booked in advance the city-combo tour with Edgar. After reading all the reviews I had quite high expectations, yet Edgar was able to exceed them by far. Started on time from the hotel and drove to Zipaquira to see the Catedral de Sal. Edgar has...

Both my partner and I absolutely loved our tour with Edgar. First, he took us out on Sunday, which I think is unheard of. Second he planned the trip for just us 2. So he answered questions, showed us sights and took us to a couple of "non-tourist" location. Then we asked about regional cuisine and he took us to... More

My husband and I spent a week in Colombia and I highly recommend Edgar as a tour guide. He is very personable, knowledgeable, and arranged the tours to our liking. As previous reviewers have noted, Edgar's city tour and Salt Cathedral tours are fascinating. I contacted other tour companies in Bogota and only Explora Bogota offered the personal, detailed tours... More

City tour and Zipaquira salt mines with a really nice family of four from Chile and myself from Wales. Can't speak too highly of Edgar, he ticks all the boxes. The tour included Montserrat, Botero Museum, Gold Museum, walking tour of Candelaria and Bolivar Square and surroundings. We had a light lunch and drove to Zipaquira. The salt mines are... More

My brother and I just returned from a 9 day trip to Columbia. We had one long day in Bogota prior to a departure for home the following day. We booked a "City Tour" and Zipaquirá Village / Salt Mine Cathedral tour. What a wonderful day. We could not have hoped for a better guide than Edgar. He picked us... More

I really cannot say enough about how wonderful of a guide Edgar was to us! My husband and I spent three days in Bogota on our Colombian vacation and we did two full day tours with Edgar. I would honestly have paid twice as much as he charged because it was that amazing. The first day we went to Guatavita,... More
