5 STARS ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ after spending a week in Colombia with Luis as our driver and guide. From the moment we contacted him to arrange our trip, he was professional, kind, generous and transparent. Luis met us at the airport with our name on a tablet and took us to our hotel. Later in the week he helped us arrange travel around the country and he went above and beyond with sharing the history and significance of each part of Bogota and Medellin that we explored. His prices were very fair and most importantly, he gave us confidence to travel around and feel secure because he was attentive, knowledgeable and professional with every experience. I would definitely recommend Luis and his driver/ and guide service. He is a “small business” and we were happy to encourage him and support him because he really has a passion for his country, history, art, culture, and providing great logistics and hospitality for travelers. He made our trip exceptional and we hope to return soon. We highly recommend Luis! Johnny B. / Mario / Joel, New York, USA

Lizeth Beltran is the very best....she is so well read, knows about architecture, history, coffee, food, world news, everything. We had great talks, showed us around more than we expected. Was very sweet, patient because one of our group could not walk fast or for so long and she really was flexible to our needs. She took us to try the best coffee in La Candelaria, and we tried the best buñuelos, you have got to try them.. But mostly you have to ask for Lizeth to take you around. We had so much fun. I think this tour was great when you only have two days in Bogota. So the first day we went to the cathedral of salt in Zipaquira, and the lagoon close by. For our second day we chose this tour which took us to Monserrate, Museum of Gold, Botero Museum, walk around down town, and La candelaria, and got to see the beautiful graffiti art. This tour was great to see all we needed to see before leaving.

This tour was a great surprise in our short time spent in Colombia. Although we had to rush to get to the airport right after the tour, the company did everything to help us and the driver dropped us off at the airport with no extra cost. Our driver, Alex, drove very safely and was very friendly and polite. Our guide, Jhon Fredy, was simply the best guide we ever had in all of our travels! He knew everything about the places we went, was very friendly with everyone, and made us feel very comfortable the whole time. It was clear that they weren't there just for the money - they really care about their customers. It really exceeded our expectations!
