Join us in this amazing free walking tour through Bogotá's downtown district and learn all about the city's history and culture, making friends along the way. La Candelaria is a creative hot-spot of Bogotá. There’s nothing like it anywhere else in this sprawling city. Art-deco and colonial houses, with baroque churches behind them; the old and the new intermingled in this walking tour Bogotá. Join one of our guides in the heart of Bogotá and discover what this neighborhood has hidden away. Inscribed in graffiti and mixed in the drinks, you’ll discover Bogotá’s colonial and indigenous past, the roots of Colombian history. A confluence of culture and conflict can be felt all around, as you follow a trail of graffiti through old city streets. Learn about the impact of Colombian drug trafficking, emerald mafia, and how all lines up with its +50 year old armed conflict. State, drugs, war, guerrillas, trade: a volatile mixture that has often blinded us to the better side of Colombia.

I learned a lot, to knowing already a lot. Ivonne is personable and knowledgeable and an excellent guide. If I visited with friends in the future, I would take the tour again. There is not a lot of walking so it isn't tiring, there is a lot of history in a small area

Excelente el Tour, he aprendido mucho de la historia de Colombia, gracias al recorrido y las explicaciones de Jose, que siempre ha estado dispuesto a contestar y aclarar dudas.

Very very nice tour, really enjoyed it! Julio was an excellent guide and very committed to the tour and to his neighboured, he is from Comuna 13. If any suggestion for improvement, the pick up location was not clear, meaning that house number does not exist so the GPS kept spinning and spinning. Had to ask a local for directions. I think it could help if you either mentioned a store or corrected the house number for pick up location. Other than that I would highly recommend it and if I ever go back, I will take this tour again.!
