On our Tour you will be able to see directly the only underground cathedral in the world located in Colombia, built 180m underground, it is a mega structure that deserves to be among the most impressive in our country and on the planet.
The entire structure of this cathedral is carved from salt from the largest salt rock deposit in the world. During the tour there are several stations where you will see the interpretation of the Christian way of the cross, in addition to the central dome where Eucharists are held, intervened by an amazing artistic work of sculpture and lighting, and also natural structures typical of salt deposits, a set of elements that will leave you breathless.
Once you finish the tour of the salt mine, the town of Zipaquirá awaits us to visit its central square, some of its beautiful colonial-looking streets where we will find the ideal place to enjoy a typical lunch.

Great experience

5.00We were a little nervous about having a tour guide that didn’t speak much English however, William was awesome. He used the translator to communicate with us seamlessly. He answered all of our questions and he even understood our broken Spanish very well. Note wear comfortable shoes when going to the salt cathedral because it is huge and the ground is uneven. My wife has MS and cannot walk for long periods of time without a break, but the cathedral had plenty of wheelchairs for us to use, and that made the experience more enjoyable for her. All in all, I would highly recommend this experience as well as William as the tour guide.
A great time under a light rain at Zipaquira Salt Cathedral

5.00The tour guide Giovanni and the driver John were right on time, they were professional, courteous and patient and it was raining both ways. Giovanni was very knowledgeable on the Salt Cathedral, the lunch food was good & taste at the "Brasa del Llano" including the live entertainment and dancing. We walked a bit around town in a light rain and had some "Obleas w/ Arequipe"; we had a great time :-). I recommend! this tour to anyone.

5.00We had an amazing experience with our tour Jhovanny Olaya. He was extremely knowledgeable joyful. respectful, and made our experience a memorable one! Private tour was worth it and we enjoyed the experience to the fullest. Highly recommend. William González was our driver and he was very cautious and patient even driving the hectic traffic of bogota. We felt safe the entire time and both of them made our experience a memorable one. The tour was great!
This was an amazing...
