      Great first day in Bogota

      "Nathalie gave us a great introduction to Bogota. We booked for the first morning and got a good overview. We appreciated especially also the local culinary experiences and the tips on what to see in the afternoon."

      Outstanding!

      "Jhoan is proud of his city, proud of his roots, and proud of his profession - not only as a wonderful, warm and incredibly knowledgeable guide that will make you feel right at home, but as somebody committed to sharing the remarkable and complex history and the rich and resilient culture of his country. Jhoan will provide you with all the insights and understanding that only outstanding guides really do. And you’ll enjoy every minute of your time with him. "

      So full, so fun

      "Jhoan’s tour was so thoughtfully put together. We enjoyed everything from fresh juices & fruits, to street meat and arepas. I’m vegetarian enjoyed so, so much delicious food that I wouldn’t have tracked down on my own. The variety of establishments is wide and he mixes in general Medellín history, too. One thousand stars out of ten. Can’t recommend enough, especially for vegetarians. :) Thank you for a super fun afternoon, Jhoan! "

      Perfect day in Cartagena

      "Wendy was the perfect guide for Cartagena. She was incredibly knowledgeable, fun, and made the history of the city come alive. We explored the Walled City and Getsemaní, tried amazing food, and learned so much along the way. She truly made the experience special. If you’re visiting Cartagena, book a tour with Wendy—you won’t regret it!"

      Best guide ever!!

      "Andrea was an absolutely outstanding guide. Her knowledge of Cartagena, its history and neighbourhoods was first class. Her pride in her city and country was most impressive and she packed an enormous amount of information in a three hour period. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and personable guide, Andrea is it. It was a delight to have met her - and she knows the best coffee house in the city!! "

      Fantastic Day of Tasty Food!

      "We had an amazing tour from Wendy! We tried so many delicious foods! We had so many Colombian treats, all were amazing and delicious. Wendy was a great host and made our visit to Colombia so delightful! I loved the opportunity to taste the local fruits that we had never seen! She was very receptive and responsive to what we wanted to try! Highest recommendation to anyone who wants to taste the flavors of Colombia!"

      Highlight of Cartegena

      "My wife and I recently did the 3-Hour, 10-Foods Tour in Cartagena and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Karen, was outstanding — her knowledge of Cartagena and Colombia was incredible, and she shared so many interesting stories and insights along the way. The food tastings she selected were excellent and gave us a great variety of authentic local flavors. Every stop felt carefully chosen and really showed off the best of Cartagena’s food scene. The pace was perfect for a 3-hour tour, and we left full, happy, and feeling like we learned a lot about the city and its culture. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cartagena — and if you can, ask for Karen as your guide. It was a fantastic experience!"

      Wonderful guide

      "Jhoan was an awesome guide and very knowledgeable about the area. He is born and raised in Medellin and draws much of his experience living through the turbulent years as he explains the history of Comuna 13 through art. The Comuna itself has transformed into a very touristy area, lined with sidewalk sellers. The area is unlike any place I’ve seen before and worth the time to explore. "
