What an awesome tour! Guatavita is a beautiful and quite charming little town. The lake area is so unique and an absolute must see while in Bogota, an excellent break away from the busy city. Highly recommended!

Tuvimos una salida muy temprano con los hermanos Luis Felipe y Alejandro con destino a la Laguna de Guatavita. La charla fue estupenda ya que conocen de su historia la cual comparten con mucha alegría así como también pudimos platicar de muchos temas a excepción del fútbol ya que no somos muy fans mas que de la selección.
El recorrido en el sitio fue muy bonito, el lugar es impresionante y el como lo han recuperado tiene mucho merito.
No se lo pierdan es una agradable aventura a mas de 3,000 mts de altura.
Conocerán la verdadera historia del Dorado.
