With over 35 years of experience as a Tour Guide, I am a specialist in the fantastic city of Bogotá and its surroundings. My experience allows me to cover different topics such as history, art, archeology, gastronomy, among others. My extensive knowledge about the culture and history of the Colombian capital will make your visit unforgettable. Touring for me is more of a passion than a job so I do it thinking that people on vacation want to enjoy as much a possible and I want them to live a really magical time. If you have thought of coming to Colombia, Bogotá is the city that offers you many spectacular places to visit. This city in the past was called Athena Suramericana due to the great cultural wealth, which offers a mixture of architecture full of imagination and details. It has a great variety of museums, among them the Gold Museum stands out, with a collection of more than 50, 000 pre-Columbian gold pieces of the best quality. This makes it the first of its kind in the world. The colonial churches lined with altarpieces covered with gold plates; the old city La Candelaria, with its colonial style balconies and its beautiful streets that will transport you to the past; The theaters; the opera; the Plaza de Bolívar, where the government is located, as well as its Cathedral, the Capitol, the Mayor's Office, the Presidential Palace and many other places that will not go unnoticed. Allow me to welcome you with a smile and open arms. I will be waiting to make your visit unforgettable. I hope to serve you! I´m licenced as a Tour Guide, licence 046 from Consejo Profesional de Guías de Turismo. I have high studies in art. Graduate in English, Italian and French. None.
