    A private tour for my partner and I. A driver and a personal guide, so we were well taken care of. We were picked up at 8am and back to hotel at 4pm. The tour was well paced given the traffic, activities and lunch. We did not feel rush from one activity to another. Bring your own water as no refreshment provided except lunch. It was a guided tour at Lake Guatavita, Mauricio was very kind translated all the information and tales presented by the guide. It was a 150 steps climb to view the lake. A delicious lunch was provided. Salt cathedral was thoughtfully built and beautiful. Mauricio explained every architecture ideas of each cross made in the Sal cathedral. He was fun and made the tour enjoyable.
