Wonderfull time...guide excelente..and the bus and chofer
We had a fantastic trip and tour! Carlos & Carlos were very informative and ensured we had the best time! I highly recommend this experience.
Andres is an excellent tour guide from start to finish. Learned a lot from this tour. He always has answers to our questions. Very satisfied with this tour. I’ll recommend it to our friends.
The tour operator did not turn up. Their explanation for not picking us up was that we booked over the weekend for a Monday morning tour‽ Considering we booked on the Saturday this shouldn’t have been a problem, especially as Trip Adviser sent confirmation. They did offer to take us the next day but considering we were leaving that day this wasn’t possible. We ended up taking an Uber there which ended up being cheaper and quite ok. They did process the refund promptly.
Please please make the trip is totally worth it and amazing how it was constructed. Very moving and spriritual.
I was very delighted with this shared tour to Zipaquera. I booked for shared tour to Zipaquera from Gran Colombia Tours. I was told by their office that instead of me going to the meeting point I would be picked up at my hotel. I was really surprised that they still pushed through with the tour as the other couple in the shared tour cancelled at the last minute. My shared tour turned out to be a private tour for the price of a shared tour. It was an very good treat to me from Gran Colombia. My tour guide, John Gil Garcia from In Colombia Tourism, has a very pleasant personality and a ton of knowledge about the Salt Catheral in Zipaquera and the town of Zipaquera. I learned so much from him on this tour. He is a tour guide extraordinaire. We even had a mini tour of the town of Zipaquera. He showed me the colours of the old district of Zipaquera. We had a great time eating lunch (trying out local food and beverage) after the tour as well. I will definitely recommend this tour to Zipaquera which is handled by Gran Colombia and tour guide John Gil Garcia.
THE TOUR WAS FANTASTIC. Carlos the guide with his professional expertise provided us with excellent information and his very cordial treatment crowned this trip for 12 Argentines
Wonderful tour, especially because of the kindness and experience of the guide Rosa Inés, our driver a 10 as a person and professional
Wonderful company Esperanza guide excellent Careful driver Carlos
The most special cathedral I have ever visited and seen. Infinite thanks to our guide Carlos, who possesses great culture and knowledge. Without a doubt, this is how it is a pleasure to discover new places.
Already mentioned in a previous review.
Great Tour, very professional and very pleasant Julio and Yelitza
A good place to visit and excellent guidance from the staff.
Excellent place, and we had an excellent guide who oriented us step by step through the history and importance of the site.
Excellent place; I would come back.
Today was a wonderful day; the most beautiful was the salt cathedral. What a pity it is not a wonder of the world. The guide was spectacular, and the driver was great too. We had a great time with them.
Excellent tour, we had Tatiana as our guide, who was friendly and provided super interesting information during the tour, and took great photographs of us. . I really enjoyed the experience.
We were with guide Tatiana, who always showed a lot of closeness and conveyed a great deal of knowledge about the salt cathedral of Zipaquirá. We recommend it.
The visit was very interesting. Carlos Espitia, the guide, is an expert in his role and has a warmth that always made us feel very comfortable, just like the driver Oscar Virguez, who was very professional. I recommend it one hundred percent.
We visited the zipaquira salt cathedral in Bogotá on tour with Carlos Espitia and Mr. Carlos Velasco of Panamericana, the truth is that the service was excellent, very friendly at all times, we felt at home.
The best of Bogota thanks to the explanations of the guide Carlos Espitia. You point out his enormous professionalism and q made the visit a marvel
Awesome place! You won't believe it!! The whole tour inside the mine was with my guide Esperanza. Our driver, Fernando Castillo, a genius!! Very careful when driving and after the excursion I left myself in a place that I asked him to continue walking. Thank you so much!
Very impressive monument and more with the explanations and recommendations of our guide Rosita. Highly recommended.
It exceeded my expectations! Carlos explains things in every detail. The place is beautiful, you feel an indescribable peace from the beginning of the tour. 100% recommended
Fuimos a la catedral de sal, fue una experiencia increíble, maravillosa, que nos superó todas las expectativas que teníamos. Fuimos con la guía Gloria Ardila, que nos explicó absolutamente todo con una claridad espectacular, así que muy agradecida por su información, realmente vale la pena ir a conocer
.very good experience, the driver very nice and friendly, the tourist guide very good vibe also and very friendly, in addition to that, every question we asked us knew how to answer and did not miss any, very good experience for us that had not visited Bogota before. We thank you deeply for this new and unique experience. What we liked and impressed the most was the salt cathedral as we would never have imagined it to be underground like a mine
Excellent, our guide Gloria was very friendly, knew everything you asked. We walk all over town, and he tells us several secrets of it
Excellent service from Andrés, very attentive, responsible and cordial. super recommended service, a unique, clear and reliable lived experience.
The service of the guides and drivers is excellent. Very good treatment, punctuality and were attentive at all times in whatever we needed. An experience I highly recommend
Andres was an excellent guide, highly recommended!! The transport units very comfortable. All the very interesting experience, we had a great time
The guides Andrés G Páez and Esperança are wonderful. They welcomed us at the airport and guided us on the tour with mastery.
The place is splendid and the work of the guide Hope, is excellent. An unforgettable experience The receptive Andres is very kind, attentive and efficient. Competent professional. Panamericana has shown that it has good professionals. A reservation only to the driver who took us to the cathedral of salt, was a little nervous in the traffic, leaving us a little uncomfortable.
The experience with the pan-American was excellent. New car and the driver Nestor is very good driver. The guide Tatiana is very kind, and has extensive knowledge, bringing all the information. Communication was essential and flowed perfectly. We love!
A catedral é sensacional! Um passeio indispensável para quem está em Bogotá! Sair cedo é muito importante! Fica bem cheio!
A cordialidade do guia Carlos e a pontualidade do motorista Felipe foram excepcionais. O conhecimento demonstrado não só sobre a Catedral do Sal como uma aula sobre o café colombiano superou as minhas expectativas. Por último, o transporte disponibilizado foi de primeira.
One of the best attractions near Bogota considered the first wonder of the country, impressive tour 180 meters underground to know the only underground temple, just can not miss on your next visit to Colombia!!
Zipaquirá is a beautiful place. I loved its squares surrounded by old buildings where there are many bars and places to eat and drink something. It was a big surprise. It exceeded my expectations. The salt cathedral is a place unlike any other. Amazing work by the miners to carve everything and achieve what they achieved. Worth knowing. Going through it takes 2 hours. It takes 11⁄2 hours to get from downtown Bogota. Very organized the tour accompanied by an audio system where each place, each element present is explained.
