Private Tour with Jose Vasquez was Great

5.00This is a private walking tour. Main points: Jose arrived at the hotel on time and was in touch thru whatsapp. We first went to Monserrate hill to avoid long lines. Jose knew the system well and our wait was say 30 mins. The funicular / cable car ride was short 5 to 7 mins. The view from top of the city and countryside was fantastic. Jose knew the history very well both of Colombia and city. We alos enjoyed the Church and vicinity. After this we came down and walked through La Candelaria area with many striking Graffiti murals. My wife insisted on seeing the Gold museum ( surprised eh!). The native culture was very striking and the skills of the artisans with just rudimentary tools and basic knowledge of metallurgy. After that we stopped in the shopping area for snacks and buy some souveniers - my EL General cap. Strolled over to the city square and the cathedral some photo ops of Simon Bolivar and finally some coffee tasting. Jose guided us all through out, being super Seniors we skipped the line at the musuem and paid nothing either. Just an overall great outing, not too stressful.

5.00This tour was truly an unforgettable experience, and a big part of that was thanks to Camilo. From the very beginning his treatment was absolutely spectacular. He was extremely attentive, professional, and you could tell he genuinely cared about making the experience special for us. Camilo took us to all the places included in the tour, but what really stood out was that he went above and beyond adding extra spots and experiences along the way that weren’t originally part of the itinerary. Those aditional places made the day even more memorable and unique. He was always attentive to our needs, patient, knowledgeable, and made sure we felt comfortable and well taken care of at all times. You can tell he truly enjoys what he does and takes pride in giving his guests the best posible experience. I highly recommend this tour, but especially recommend doing it with Camilo. If you’re looking for a guide who goes the extra mile and turns a tour into a truly special experience, he’s definitely the one. I would absolutely do this tour again without hesitation.
Highly recommended
