Live the magic of the First Wonder of Colombia! Let us accompany you on this fantastic private tour with one of our driver-guides, who will make your trip an unforgettable experience. The Cathedral is an enclosure built inside the mines, completely carved out of salt. Discover the imposing architecture of this great cultural and religious heritage. On this tour, you will learn about the history, customs, folklore, and typical food of our region. You will visit the historic center of Zipaquirá, admiring its colonial architecture in places like the Plaza de los Comuneros, Plaza de la Independencia, and the school where our Nobel Prize for Literature (Gabriel García Márquez) studied, as well as the train station. There will be time for lunch (optional) before returning to Bogotá. Your journey begins with pick-up from the hotel of your choice and concludes at the same location. During the experience, we will also explore the town and treat you to a delicious coffee with almojábana, empanadas, and other surprises. We are waiting for you!
