The Monserrat tour was awesome ! Thanks to our tour guide Sara ! Everything was well planned out ! Tour took 2 hrs ! After meeting at the base of the mountain we were taken to a tram that takes us to the mountain top! From there the tour begins on foot ! Sara is an excellent storyteller and is passionate of her work sharing knowledge on the history of this beautiful mountain and its famous attractions like the church , wishing well , monuments. The plants and animals that inhabit the area , ! My favorite is the story of the black Madonna holding baby Jesus ! The inside of the church is beautiful and architecture dates back to the 16th century! The views of bogota from the mountain top is awesome and. You can see a replica of Christ the redeemer like the one in Brazil from nearby mountains not too far away ! Love this tour and the experience provided by Sara to make us all engage , ask questions and opportunities to take pictures and take in the stunning views that surround us ! Definitely worth every penny ! Highly recommend it !
