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

We had 2 full days of competent, entertaining and insightful guiding in and around Bogotá with Edgar in the last days of 2011. Everything worked really well from the pickup at our hotel to language and Edgar's preparedness to change the itinerary at short notice, both when we had already seen some of the sights before the tour. Highly recommend... More

Our day tour was perfect for our one-day stop at bogota. We were picked-up from El dorado airport and even while our plane was late, the tour guide was waiting for us. We visited Museo del Oro, Monserrate Sight Seeing Botero Museum among others. We would definetly return to see the rest of Bogota or outside attractions. Nuestro tour de... More

First of all, this is not a review on quality of tours itself. We have booked a city tour, salt cathedral and Guatavita lagoon a few weeks before we travelled to Bogota. Edgar was very efficient in replying my emails. On the day, we waited for half an hour but he didn't show up. Our hotel staff called him on... More

A friend and I booked the tour pretty close to our departure date and even though we were e-mailing up to the day before, Edgar showed up at our hostel right on time! He was very helpful and informative and took us all over Bogota (new and old town) and the Salt Cathedral in Zipaquirá. He was a library of... More

I worked in Colombia with the Peace Corps in the early 60s. I have just returned, accompanied by my partner, to revisit old memories and see Bogota and Manizales have changed over the last 45 years(!) A little apprehensive about taking on Bogota by ourselves, we contracted with Edgar for a couple of full days. He came through for us... More

I contacted Edgar through e-mail and was pleased he answered back right away. We set for a city combo (city tour and catedral de sal). He e-mailed me the fees, which were ok for our small group (4 adults). We had problems with our flight and the day before we were supposed to make the tour I called Edgar and... More

The title says it all. f you just want a tour of Bogota just contact any of the tour companies or talk to any of the concierge at any hotel. If you want to really experience the the real Bogota than call Edgar. You will go home at the end of the day saying "WOW" this was not a tour... More
