On the outskirts of Bogotá, there are two beautiful old towns worth visiting: Zipaquirá and Guatavita. Come with us and explore their treasures with this two-in-one day trip. First, start with the Salt Cathedral Zipaquirá Tour, a must-see destination and the only underground Catholic church in the world. Then, venture into Guatavita’s natural park to learn about its cultural significance and the legend of El Dorado.
Bogotá and its surrounding villages (and the entire country) are deeply rooted in indigenous heritage. Some places beautifully display the contrast between indigenous history and legends, combined with Spanish influence and modern traditions. Zipaquirá and Guatavita are two such places, each showcasing this unique blend.
Short on time but still want to experience the best of Bogotá and its surroundings? This full-day tour lets you visit two incredible locations in one go. Discover Zipaquirá and Guatavita, immersed in diverse landscapes, rich history, ecosystems, cultural beliefs, and unique heights!
Enjoy a scenic drive through the Colombian countryside on your way to Zipaquirá with hotel pick-up included.
Explore the magnificent cathedral carved deep into the salt mines, with intricate sculptures and breathtaking underground chapels.
Stop for lunch at a local restaurant (not included).
Continue your journey to Guatavita Lake, where you’ll learn about its historical significance and the legend of El Dorado while enjoying the serene beauty of the lake.
After your visit, relax during the ride back to your hotel with drop-off included.
The tour lasts about 8 hours if you visit the Salt Cathedral only, and around 10 hours if you include Guatavita Lake.
Lunch is not included but there will be an opportunity to stop at a local restaurant.
Comfortable shoes, sunscreen, water, and a jacket as it can get cooler near Guatavita Lake.
