Bogotá is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Museo Botero. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.

Booked this as a couple trip and it was well paced. Parque de la Independencia in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.

Our trip to Bogotá was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Catedral de Sal de Zipaquirá was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.
