Highlights
Get to know one of the most vibrant and thriving cities in Latin America. A place with near a 10 million population mixes with the contrast of the mountain, its ancestral memory that rests on the hills and a city that expands in a vibrant scene, a bridge capital between the colonial, the urban and the worldwide. Keep in mind for your reservation that on Mondays and some holidays the Gold Museum is not in operation and on Tuesdays the Botero Museum is not in operation, as well some holidays, these points will be replaced by another of the many museums available in the area :)

About Bogotá
Bogotá, Colombia's capital, sits high in the Andes at around 2,600 metres, with a colonial old quarter, a famed gold museum and a hilltop church.
La Candelaria, the old quarter, lies at the foot of the eastern hills, with streets of colonial houses, galleries and murals around Plaza de Bolívar and its cathedral. The Gold Museum holds thousands of pre-Hispanic gold objects, and the Botero Museum shows the plump figures of Fernando Botero, who gave the city his collection. Above town, a funicular and cable car rise to Monserrate, a white church at over 3,100 metres.
Top-ranked sights in Bogotá: Plaza de Bolivar, Botero Museum (Museo Botero), Gold Museum (Museo del Oro).
