    Why choose a private tour over a free walking tour or a group tour

    Free walking tours and shared group tours follow a fixed script, move with 20–40 strangers and leave transport, admissions and tips on you. Our private tours — in Bogotá and beyond — run only for your group, with a certified bilingual guide, private vehicle, hotel pickup and all tickets included.
