Experiencing the Salt Cathedral with Nataly was the highlight of our 2.5 days in Bogata. It’s MUST DO for sure - especially if you like to tour cathedrals. Regardless of your religion, it’s a memorable on to do. Also, the authentic meal that follows was delicious. Nataly is a gem, and we would strongly recommend asking for her.
