Money well spent - Mike is the best. Very knowledgeable guide and chill dude. Fruit tasting at a local market was my favorite part but just riding a bike through neighborhoods in Bogota and seeing important historical areas was so cool. You get to see ALOT in the few hours you ride around. TOTALLY worth it.

Amazing experience - The tour was amazing. I had a chance to explore the most famous spots in Bogota and experience the rich culture. Edgard is very knowledgeable and I also learn so much with him. He is easy going, friendly and try to accommodate your needs and ideas. He speaks a lot of different languages which is a plus. Gracias !

Edgar caters to your interests, delivers best of Bogota - Touring Bogota and the surrounding towns with Edgar is a must for any traveler. Edgar not only is full of knowledge and wisdom (in addition to speaking multiple languages!), but he is well-traveled and flexible, and works with you and your companions to deliver the best of Bogota in your time with him. We were able to explore Bogota and Zipaquira with Edgar, and he was gracious enough to assist us in a trip to Andres Carnes in Chia. Edgar is beyond professional and friendly, and his love for his country is evident. The quality of our time spent with him over the course of our two days in the city was exceptional!

Great tour, even better tour guide! - My friend and I were in Bogota last week and we had set up a City/Salt Cathedral Tour with Edgar a few months in advance. We were so pleased with our tour, but we especially clicked well with Edgar. He's very knowledgeable about his country (and South American in general) and he loves answering questions about it. He's also just a good person, very sweet. He definitely took care of us. Contact him about a tour when you're in Bogota, you won't be disappointed!!

Wonderful tour - Just finished two days with Edgar and Explora Bogota and had a wonderful time. Edgar doesn't just take you to the different sites, his colorful explanations truly immerse you in the culture. He had so many stories to share, and great advice for us to make our stay in Bogota the best it could be.
Bogota gets a bad wrap in the press but I have to say it was safe, clean and the people warm and friendly. We are so glad Edgar was able to show us his amazing city and I can personally vouch for the quality of his tours. By the way, be sure to add the Salt Cathedral to your list. It is a bit of a distance but truly a wonder and not to be missed.

Edgar could not have been nicer! - Edgar picked my husband and I up for a day tour of the Salt Cathedral and the city of Bogota. He was very knowledgeable and super accommodating. He went over and beyond to make sure we were happy and saw everything we wanted to see. I would highly recommend using him!

Great tour. - Edgar was a perfect tour guide who shared with us so much about the city. We could visit the major highlights of the city as well as what we asked additionally in one day which was very productive. Rated as very good not excellent is because the information given initially on the website was different from what the tour was actually was. It was 8hour tour instead of 4, we spent more than 20mins at Museo de Oro etc. It wasn't a big deal and again the tour was amazing but it would've been improved.

Disappointing the guide - We made a stopover in the city and closed with the EDGARD guide, which was well rated on tripadvisor. The ride became disappointing. As soon as we met, the guide tried, miserably, to include another couple in the tour, and we were paid for a more expensive tour. During all the time the guide did not explain to us any historical data about the city and the places, did not give us any privacy, was always in a hurry, and took us to a bad and expensive restaurant. The city, which was already a disappointment, became worse with this "professional".
