Breakfast. At the agreed-upon time, we will begin a tour of Bogotá's historic center, starting with a walking tour of Plaza de Bolívar and the surrounding streets. Along the way, you will see buildings such as the National Capitol, the center of the country's legislative life; the Casa de los Comuneros; the Casa de Nariño, the seat of the Presidency of the Republic; and the Santa Clara Church Museum. You will then visit the Gold Museum, which houses some 34,000 gold artifacts from various pre-Hispanic cultures. The route continues at 2,600 meters above sea level, ascending to 3,152 meters to the sanctuary where the image of the Fallen Lord of Monserrate is venerated. From there, you will enjoy the best panoramic view of Bogotá. Overnight stay.

Includes: Transportation, guide, entrance fees to the Gold Museum and Botero Museum, cable car or funicular ticket (subject to Monserrate's operating hours).

After breakfast, at the agreed-upon time, we will begin a tour across the Bogotá savanna to the city of Zipaquirá, whose name means "city of our Father" in the Chibcha language. In pre-Columbian times, saline springs in this region were exploited to produce "salt loaves," a form of currency used by the Muisca people for trade. Over time, technology changed, and mines were opened to extract larger quantities of salt. In these ancient underground galleries stands the Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá, 180 meters below the surface. There, you will find a small chapel built by the miners in honor of Our Lady of the Rosary of Guasá (this word means "mine" in Chibcha). At the end of the tour, we will return to Bogotá.
