This is the place for you. An excellent blend of wildlife sanctuary and visitor attraction. Just sitting in the patio area you can expect to see about a dozen species, including the amazing Swordbill Hummingbird and rare Blue-fronted Starfrontlet. Very close to Bogota. Reservations are required and limited. Refer to their website.

We offer tours for all levels of mountain bike riders. Our half, full-day or tailored excursions are an ideal way to experience the outskirts of Bogota city from a different perspective. Learn about Colombia’s people, it’s rich natural resources, and it’s tumultuous history while riding through some of the most incredible scenery.

I have been on several outings with Nomads and my experience with the group has been superb. There are routes for bikers of all levels, from beginners on their first outing to hardened experts. As a foreigner living in Colombia, it was wonderful to find a group of people - foreigners and locals alike - who enjoy biking and exploring the outdoors like I do.
I've been extremely impressed by the guides. They are friendly, organized, very knowledgeable about routes, safety and local surroundings, and take great care to ensure that everyone has the best experience possible. They are multilingual and rent top quality mountain bikes and helmets for the day if you need them.
Nomads gives everyone the chance to get to know Colombia’s incredible mountainous landscapes by bike. Wonderful for a day trip if you’re just in Bogotá for a few days or weekly outings if you’re planning to be here longer. Highly recommended!

When my girlfriend first told me we were going there I thought oh my gosh really we have to walk 3 hours! Well we didn't we took one of those little rail cars with a makeshift motor and it was awesome. The Rio awesome. And of course the company I was with awesome. Don't forget your sunscreen and don't worry about bringing food or drinks there's plenty out there at a great price very economical day packed with fun.

Set within a gorgeous restored English-style mansion, this bookstore brings you home. Immense wood shelves are covered in books, and the comfortable lounge chairs and couches beg to be sat on. The selection covers it all: classic to modern literature, poetry, photography and food, graphic novels and essays. Treat yourself to a hot beverage at their coffee shop while you read or chat with friends. As if the books in English and the bilingual librarians weren't enough reasons to visit, they also have cultural programs for children, and adults can listen in as experts discuss Literary topics. This is a place to let your creativity and imagination run wild.

I found this bookshop and cafe in an internet search for English language books in Bogota. It turned out to have a disappointing English language range but a terrific cafe with great wifi. The Libreria ranges over 3 floors of what looks like an old...MoreJane Thanks a lot for your candid opinion. We brought books every two months. I will use yur comments to improve the selection.

this is a great hike that'll get your heart rate up and put you in the throws of nature without the inconvenience of driving two hours out of town for the experience. the closest parking lots if you drive are down the hill a spell and you have to walk the path through an urban-ish trail until you get to the head of the hike-it adds about 15/20 minutes to your journey. if you take a taxi, have them drop you off at "mirador de la canada" (populates on google maps and waze better than the actual address, which is 'calle 71 #2-84'). it's the name of the apt building where the trail starts just behind. you walk through nice changes in scenery and even young-ish legs can make it to the top (i'd say 8yrs old and older ideal). it's better to go early and head down by 9am because the police along the trail leave by 10am. at a leisurely pace with little legs (8 and 11 yrs old) amongst us we did the round trip in 3 hrs.
