How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
Enjoy an adventure of lively Bogotá off the beaten track, by skipping the crowds at Plaza Bolívar to squeeze into a hidden colonial home once a hole in the wall for hungry visitors, or peek through the window of a sassy salsa school — ¡Bravo! See the world's first crowd-funded skyscraper that didn't go as planned, and admire tributes to a young graffiti artist on the bridge of Avenida Boyacá. At a market locals love, see, smell and taste why Colombia is one of the most biodiverse nations, before heading to creative barrio La Macarena to see Colombian society through the eyes of foreign photographers at a hidden art nook. Once there, appreciate everything from Caribbean salsa music to Mexican mariachis, as you navigate its multi-cultured streets.
