Amazing place to view history and the statues these groups created. Worth the money. The $65000 that people complain about covers three parks which is great value. Please go and see these spectacular monuments.

Amazing place. If you come to Colombia you must visit San Agustin and San Agustin Archaeological Park. Amazing history and amazing introduction to the. culture of Colombia.

We expected more from our visit, first, its expensive, the museum with its statues and pottery is a must see to understand more about the rest you will see on your walk. The burial sites and statues are very interesting. The carved out place by the river with its bamboo bridge is very special and one of the highlights. If you follow the staircase up to the last burial site your will find an excellent open restaurant fillid with miscellanous mixture of music and souvenirs. The empanadas and cane sugar juice were delighting. Across it is another place thats belongs to the same family and sells homemade icecream.

The sculptures are interesting, but little information about them survive, which leaves open the possibility of "creative" interpretation such as the one we heard from a guide today. We were regaled with stories about Atlantis and Egypt and pygmies and seemingly anything but the factual local information - real woo woo stuff. These questionable interpretations by our guide reflected poorly on the site and detracted from our experience, which was otherwise pleasant.

The largest necropolis in the world is in Colombia! Hundreds if not thousands of stone sculptures, and most of them still buried, is a small sample of the great civilization that settled in these lands thousands of years ago. I went with my wife and my 10-11 year old children and it was one of the best trips in my life. Colombians, let's value this kind of treasures, and foreigners are very welcome to visit this marvel. A few tips: Hire one of the local guides of the park, arrive early, bring hydration, good shoes, there are 3 more parks, this is the main one if you don't have much time at least go to the idol park. Oh and bring the best disposition to know this beautiful place.

The park is pretty nice and I can recommend it for every tourist who is interested in archeological topics. However, the price of 65k is way too much, compared to other sights in Colombia. It would be nice to have a cheaper ticket option for this park only, because many tourists only stay for one day and are not interested in the other parks that are quite far away.

We're always looking for places that allow dogs. Probably the best one we've found. Hours are entry hours are 8-3 but you can stay in the park until 5.

La Chaquira was one of the stops on my horseback riding tour through San Agustin, and it turned out to be my favorite. The history is interesting but the views here were absolutely breathtaking (mountains, the river, waterfalls, etc.). Some people said that it was a dangerous area but I didn't have any issues while I was there with my local guide. I loved it so much that I even had to list it as one of the reasons San Agustin is worth visiting on my San Agustin blog post.

Entering from the main road after visiting El Tablón. You walk about 25/30min along dirt farm roads. La Chaquira is located at the end of the road. There is a Resteraunt with light snacks and refreshments. A stone carving craftsman and a girl making beautiful thread bracelets. There are statues all over the property hidden in bushes and long grass. It’s also recommended you walk down an extensive staircase to see the River and canyon. There are 2 viewpoint platforms. It’s a nice option to see the statues and some beautiful countryside for free. (Only pay $1200 for the bus or $2000 for the mototaxi from centre San Agustin.

Beautiful view. It is a bit of a hike. You can see three waterfalls and Magdalena river from the hill. It is more about the scenario. Lovely view. I went at noon and it was super sunny but it was fine.

Very cool spot 40min walk away from the pueblo with a view on Rio Magdalena and a famous San Augustin statue carved in a rock.

Good hike, free entrance

A great view on the deep valley and the waterfall and, if you turn around, also on the figures (I could only find discover 2, not third). But the way is long and steep. Keep it in your mind before you go down! Parking on a farm after a small and steep path, a small parking fee instead a intrance fee. After your way back you will really enjoy a cool drink on the farm's bar - how joyful no plastic, just glass bottles.

Absolutely unique remains of incredibly talented and brave Sculptors people of San Agustín. The landscape is breathtaking. Please take care of that treasure. We saw people jumping of the 4000 yo sculptures to take (ridiculous) selfies, it's horrifying.

I enjoyed the trek. Fit for adventurous individuals and happy souls.

(Translated by Google) The volcano remains CLOSED to the public, it can no longer be visited. However, you can visit the rest of the national park and it is very beautiful, especially the hot springs, the Condor and the landscapes, wonderful! But it is difficult to organize the visit if you do not have your own transportation, you have to pay for a guide, entrance and transportation, it is a little expensive… (Original) El volcán permanece CERRADO al público, ya no se puede visitar. Si embargo sí se puede visitar el resto del parque nacional y es muy bonito, sobre todo los termales , el Condor y los paisajes, una maravilla! Pero es difícil organizar la visita si no tienes transporte propio, hay que pagar guía, entrada y transporte, sale un poco caro…

(Translated by Google) The entire area is beautiful; the volcano has been closed to visitors for 3.5 years due to volcanic activity. However, you can enjoy a full day of hiking in the region's beautiful ecosystem. If you're staying in the town, you'll need to take a shuttle to the park entrance where the Indigenous Council is located. There are also lodging options there, including cabins and camping services. (Original) Es preciosa toda el área, el volcán desde hace 3.5 años no se puede visitar por registros de actividad volcánica. Pero se puede disfrutar todo un día del precioso ecosistema de la región, caminando. Si se hospedan en el pueblo se debe coger transporte para llevarlos al ingreso del parque donde está el Cabildo indígena. También hay opciones de hospedaje allá, hay cabañas y servicio de camping.

Super 👌

(Translated by Google) Excellent place to visit ♥️ It is always necessary to be careful inside the hot springs so as not to cause damage. The bad thing is that the road is too bad. But it was worth getting there. The indigenous guards are very honest. We lost a phone and they returned it to us. They charged us 100,000 for the entrance fee for both of us and the guide. It was during the week. (Original) Excelente lugar que toca conocer ♥️ Siempre toca ir con cuidado dentro de los termales para no hacer daños. Lo malo es que la carretera está demasiado mala. Pero si valió la pena llegar. Los guardias indígenas son muy honestos. Se nos perdió un teléfono y nos lo devolvieron. Nos cobraron 100.000 por la entrada de los dos y el guía. Fue entre semana.

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful paramos in Colombia, in its peaks you can see the Andean condor. The road is always kept in good condition due to the intervention of the indigenous council that is responsible for managing the protected area. Tourism is being implemented and promoted in an important way, improving the Pilimbala facilities and projecting similar projects in other spaces, such as the old sulfur mine. SUPER RECOMMENDED TO CLIMB IN DECEMBER-JANUARY, a time of low cloud cover and good visibility. (Original) Uno de los páramos mas hermosos de Colombia, en sus picos se puede apreciar al cóndor de los Andes. La carretera se mantiene siempre en buen estado por la intervención del cabildo indígena que se encarga de administrar el área protegida.

SUPER RECOMENDADO SUBIR EN DICIEMBRE-ENERO, época de baja nubosidad y buena visibilidad.

Everything was coordinated properly, however they lack some communication.

(Translated by Google) They are definitely excellent!! And nothing to say or feel about the guide Andrés Felipe Vargas, what quality of human being, what humility, what kindness, what a sense of belonging to the company and what it does, we had a super incredible time on our trip to Huila, we visited the beautiful town of Paicol, we did activities such as torrenting and hiking, we went to the Tatacoa desert, at the hand of the giant, or rather we loved everything about the hotels, the food, absolutely everything, and most importantly I highly recommend them, keep up the good work guys .

What an amazing yet strenuous hike to see some very cool ancient sites. This is probably the coolest thing I will do in Colombia and the town and people were so helpful and kind. I hope more people visit!

The park is amazing !!!!! You need to be ready to walk up the hill for 2000m but the pass is for 2 days .

Be prepared for a long walk uphill to the tombs. Once there you will climb steps 6 meters down and back up. But it was worth it. Beautiful and unique.

Parque Tierradentro is an exceptional place, a must visit if you're in this part of Colombia. Basically, these are subterranean burial sites appr. 1400 year old. It's possible to visit on your own, with public transport, below I'll explain how. From Popayan, there are several buses daily (schedule attached). The trip costs 40k one way. Takes about 3 hours. The road is terrible, I wouldn't recommend coming by car. On the bus try to take front seats, you'll be jumping and shaking a lot. The bus won't take you all the way to the park, but will leave you at "El Crucero" (search on Google maps). From there it's a 1km+ walk to the park entrance. There is also bus connection with La Plata if you're coming from Tatacoa. For foreigners, the cost of the entry is 50k. Factor in a night to spend in San Andres, because the last bus is at 4pm, and the sites close at 4pm too, it's impossible to visit everything by then. I visited on Tuesday, and was the only person at each site. The park is very well organized and clearly marked. Next to the entrance, there is a museum, worth a 15-20 min stop. All the sites are accessed through hiking trails, with beautiful views, some of them - especially Aguacate - quite steep, so keep that in mind. On the first day you can easily visit Segovia, El Duende and El Tablón, and then arrive to San Andres where you'll stay overnight. There is a cheap (30k) hospedaje next to the church. All in all, it will take you 3-4 hours. The following day you can hike to San Andres site (15 min) and Aguacate (1h 10 min), and then make your way down to take a bus (1 h). I went down towards Inza (gasolinera el Hato) instead of returning to the museum to save myself some minutes of shaking in the bus. I was pretty exhausted by the time I was down. You'll need to bring water and maybe some snacks, as in the sun the hikes can be pretty demanding. But overall, the combination of the incredible views of the surrounding mountains, pleasant hikes and ancient archeological sites make it a really special place to visit.

Why?? how?? who?? so many questions about this place and not many answers just theories and that's what makes it even more interesting. So simple yet amusing, that was tierradentro national park for me it was a magical place maybe cause I prefer to visit a park over the "biggest badest" shopping mall. Now when you visit this park go with an open mind cause it might become very repetitive, and keep in mind that there's different areas that you need to hike to. The hike to the Alto the aguacate Is pretty steep and on the hard side if you start at the museum, there no obvious stairs or path in the beginning, after you cross the bridge just go up, no left or right but up, once on top you'll be rewarded with amazing 360 views of the whole area, and don't forget to bring lots of water and snacks.

Nice, intersting place, we recomending to take local taxi (after ticket office) and start from top of hill. Perfect walking trip.

A bit off the beaten track. I took a car from La Plata. A bit tough to explore physically, so do bring sturdy shoes and walking sticks. The tombs themselves are fascinating. Some require a flashlight to explore. Staff were helpful, though a bit of Spanish goes a long way. Take care abd enjoy, this is a unique experience.

The uphill ascent wasn’t really that bad and the view was really that good. A nice spot to catch your breath and take in the sights and sounds.

My guided tour of the city stopped by this statue and explained a little more of the history, but it wasn't the most exciting stop on the tour (maybe still worth checking out if youre nearby)

Great place to hang out and get a different view of the city. There are some merchants there that will take a photo of you if you pay them.

The views are spectacular, walking traces are avalaibles. Small place.

One of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Including the nights of “Feria de Cali” and the city sightseeing during the day or night, plus you have a great view of the city right here.

Good to be there by the weather. It's not so cold nor hot either. It's bad the night enviorement by the smoke and the big amount of junk food sellers. You can see Cali and its lights and streets. I reccomend to visit at daylight

9/10

This place is amazing. The hiking trails are properly marked, and your effort pays off with an outstanding view from the top. You are fully in touch with nature, if you're careful and quiet enough you can see beautiful species. Can't recommend the restaurant enough. It's a bit on the expensive side, but it's so tasty it's worth it. 100% recommended!

A really wonderful place to spend your day with the nature and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. It's one of the best places you can visit being a nature lover. Lots of stages to walk across and explore. The butterfly collection here is wonderful. And coming to the best part, the food here is the most delicious thing you can ever have, the perfection with which they cook the fish and its really the best part.

What an amazing place!!! The nature trails, the butterfly garden, the restaurant, and the staff!!! Fabulous 😍

Expensive entrance. Charging foreigners double then locals! Only for that reason i didnt enter the park. Only had lunch at the restaurant.

The food is good but really expensive. The hike is good but terrain is always muddy. so, it's a hard walk and the final view is beautiful. But there needs to be a safer and easier way to get down. After the trek up... Perhaps esculators like in Medellin.

This is such a nice place to spend the day. The hiking trails are clear and well maintained, you're ascending at all times but it's very doable. If at any time you feel fatigue you easily find return points. There's a beautifil restaurant and a little store up at the viewpoint.

It is an amazing place ! I would recommend it for anyone. When you arrive you can order from the wide range of delicious dishes which base on the local fresh ingredients (fish, vegetables, etc). After ordering you can go for a walk around the beautiful estate which contains many historical elements of the place. The walk ends on top of a hill where you will be bown away of the breath taking view. After the walk we returned to our lovely restaurant and had an amazing dish of fish. The staff if very warmly welcoming, family like atmosphere, perfect for children. If you are looking to experience a decent day, here is the place to spend it.

Been wanting to go there ever since I learned that Colombia has a desert 🏜️🌵. Was not disappointed, truly lived up to the hype. The red desert was my favorite. There are many things to explore and experience. The observatory, the selfie park, restaurants, horseback riding, all are superb. We drove far back into the desert and there were many animals we saw as well as bird watching. I’d definitely make this trek again.

Wonderful place! Get ready for extrem hot weather and lots of sun! Use a cap, sneakers, water and comfortable clothes is key to survey the walk successfully. The entrance is free, there are options if you want a guided tour, they have their own motorcycle for transportation and you can follow them by car.

You can go by yourself if you have a car! Several options to eat and enjoy. Highly recommend before the sunrise or at golden time to enjoy the sunset and then the stars. Is a magical place, sometimes the dry forest of this desert looked more green because of the rain.

Amazing place with a wealthy history background, excellent to explore and to enhance your knowledge about nature

Beautifull! Just Beautifull! I was not easy to get here, but i am so happy that i took the time to visit this gorgious dessert. Important, take enough water with you, even on a cloudy day. Apply lot's of sunscreen even when it rains.

Incredible place!! I went with a tour from backpackers & travellers hostel in Neiva and it was a wonderful experience. Some sand flies at night but definitely worth visiting. It’s like a mini-utah. The grey desert is also quite wonderful with unique slot canyon formations all around. Take advantage of the nature here before it disappears due to weather effects on the red desert!

The deserts are super beautiful, but it's rather small. The observatory we went to was not at all good. You just sat on the roof of a building and got an explanation of some things, but nothing really new. Not worth the 10 000.

This is truly a hidden gem. So many different types of aircraft and cars that you can spend hours looking. I was also impressed with the model railways and model airplanes on display. Overall this was definitely the highlight of my trip.

The visit to this museum near the airport was worth every minute. somebody really made an effort here and put a lot of time into details. There are countless models on display, and the cutlery from quite a few airlines in different decades is displayed behind different glass cases. the history of avianca, SCADTA and many interesting details about the aviation of Colombia are conveyed here to the interested visitor.

This place is a WOW. Plan at least 2 hours. And if misquitos like you, bring repellant. They ate me up inside

Very tranquil. Staff is very dedicated, attentive. And help you understand what you are looking at. Yet they let you walk around by yourself and no time limit. Truly enjoyed myself

A true hidden gem! The aircraft and vintage car collection is impressive, The airplane and ship model collection on the second floor is breathtaking, but the model railway (fourth largest in the world) is the jewel of the crown; well worth the ticket price by itself. Highly recommended!

I cant say enough about how wonderful this museum is. Old steam engines, vintage tractors, massive planes thousands of models, and the most expansive model train sets i have ever seen. The staff was perfect and extremely knowledgeable. Great job!

Excellent displays and friendly staff. Too bad the café was closed...

Nice museum with botanical gardens and sugarcane exhibits. More expensive for foreign tourists, unfortunately.

Closed on Mondays. Don't follow google Maps. Instead, use Waze.

The best from the walk around the museum was the variety of trees, plants and flowers. As per the sugarcane treatment or sugar making process not so much information or equipment to see.

An amazing and beautiful hacienda. Showcasing the different cultural ways to process the sugarcane. A beautiful natural set up. Flowers and gardens are unique.

A historical sugar plantation house with amazing gardens and examples of sugar processing tools / methods from all over Colombia. Minus 1 star due to difficulty to travel to from Cali, the final road was poor and there is limited signage and none of the tour or guides was in english. These problems are evident because on the Saturday when we visited there were only about 10 other visitors at the peak midday time. It wouldn't take much work to make this a world class museum and tourist attraction, I really hope they try because it has so much potential.

Beautiful place to learn about the process of sugar cane and how it's changed over time. Ask for Manuel as a guide! Very knowledgeable.

Great place to learn about sugarcane process. The museum is beautiful and surrounded by lots of trees, flowers, brooks and ponds. It also has a traditional house where you can see how people used to live a while ago.

This was a great experience with wonderful views. The history is very interesting, the place is so clean. The staff are friendly and fun. Started and ended tour with amazing coffee, along with being an ambassador for coffee after the coffee baptism. Highly recommended.

Before coming here, we spent the whole day on a coffee tour where they did a much worse job explaining coffee in hours compared to the young barista who attended us at this coffee terrace in just a few minutes. You can truly feel the passion for coffee that everyone who works here has. The baristas deliver impeccable service and explanations. Of course, it’s no surprise that the coffee here is some of the best I have ever tasted. If all that isn’t good enough, there is also a terrace with beautiful views of the landscape and the small village in the mountains. I will never forget this place, a magical spot in the mountains.

The expresso was very good. The cappuccino was also very good. They have a small variety of desserts but the atmosphere and view are the real reason for coming here. The service is very good also. Enjoying the birds singing and the beautiful view really brings out your our inner peace and awakens you to a beautiful place.

The best place to learn about the world famous coffee culture and its anthology. Great tour, delicious bakery, awesome coffee and a mind blowing cocktail made with a sweet melasa made out of coffee. The landscape you can capture from the terrace has no match on this country.

We had a great time at San Alberto. We learned a lot about coffee and all the different ways of preparing it. The view was beautiful and service was excellent. I highly recommend the coffee experience.

One of the places that you have to visit in the coffee region of Colombia if you want to taste the coffee that won the most of the prices over Colombia. This cafe represents perfectly what is a perfect cup of coffee in many different types of ways. Enjoy it strong or soft, or cold or hot or in many other popular ways. Also San Alberto offers you the possibility to see the coffee process since the picking of the red beans to the drying, roasting and grilling of this coffee of this same farm for the end have a experience with some of the best "catadores" to teach you how to distinguish a perfect cup of coffee.

This is one of the cofee places that owns their own cofee farm and sells it. The cofee is definitely an experience and some are prepared on your table. The view is magnificent. There is an offering of dessert to complement your cofee but very limited and not all may be available. This is not a restaurant just in case you're looking for a real meal.

Spent the whole day here with the family and had lots of fun. They advertise it as a coffee farm visit, but it’s way more than that. I’d even say that coffee takes a small place here. They will put you in traditional costumes and teach you how to dance the old-school way. They will show you a big handmade model village that’s fun to explore. They will also take multiple pictures of you (and charge you for them later if you want to keep them). At the very end, they finally tell you a little about coffee and let you taste a small cup. So don’t come here for the coffee, but more for the photos and the fun experience.

Solid tour. Thanks to Alejandro for his energy and engagement. We learnt about coffee, the Paisas and had heaps of fun despite the heat. Apply sunscreen and keep cool ☀️ The park can feel kitschy at times but that’s part of the charm if you are into that sort of local immersion.

Manuel, our Jeep chauffeur recommended this place. This place is beautiful. Our coffee tour guide, Juan David Giraldo, was the best. He is fun and enthusiastic, and his energy is contagious. We all loved Recuca and in grand part because of his fun energy. Ok. Now the bad: we were horribly disappointed to learn the coffee shop didn't take cards. My heart sank when the employee said it was CASH ONLY 🤯. I mean, this is a tourist spot!!!. We paid for the tickets with a visa card. And we really wanted to buy MANY bags coffee there to bring home..... it was kind of horrible to go home empty-handed. So this is my humble recommendation for the administrator: ALLOW people buy and pay with ALL the options available. Not only cash!!!! You are losing a LOT of clients. 😪

I loved this coffee experience! They taught us everything from how coffee originated to how to distinguish the differences between coffee beans, to how to make the perfect cup and all the varieties of coffee. We even dressed up in costumes that represented the people who previously had coffee farms. Towards the end we had to pick out coffee beans. It was an enriching experience especially for someone who loves coffee

Very fun and informative. There is lots of colored commentary and double entendre jokes along the tour. Not sure if they offer tours in English though. It is recommended to bring a hat, sunglasses and some sunscreen. There is lots of walking and some areas aren’t very accessible if using a wheel chair or pushing a stroller. I wouldn’t recommend bringing small children as it can be hot and they probably wouldn’t enjoy the tour as much. A typical lunch is offered with beans, rice, ground beef, plantain and your only choice for a second meat is either chorizo or pork cracklings.

Excellent chocolate tour! We had an English-speaking (bilingual) tour guide (Andres G). I assumed he had worked there for 10-15 years! He was so knowledgeable. He explained everything about the cultivation and processing of cocoa. My kids loved it. My wife loved it. We got to eat yummy fresh cocoa from the fruit! They made it super fun. I'd recommend wearing pants and long sleeves! This might have been the highlight of our whole trip!

We had a great time here. The tour (in English) was very good. Everything was explained in great detail and you could also take part yourself, for example picking coffee beans. Everything was very informative and interesting and the area is simply beautiful. We had also booked lunch. I personally wasn't a fan of it, but others in the group really enjoyed it.

Good natural location. Huge park. 30 minutes from Ibague. Bad service in restaurant, poor food offer. Only 5 showers for men in the entire park for over 400 people. Dirty water pools. Parking area located too far from the park entrance.

This site is good to go and enjoy a sunny day and a swimming Pool. It has a environment for children and adults, there is an option to stay, get food and above all it is very quiet.

The food is very regular. Costumer service is really poor. Bad attitud specially in the dinning. The cleaingliness and maintance of the rooms is very bad except for the bed linnen. The pools and nature are nice. Won't go back it needs a lot of improvement.

When it's hot and you don't have a pool available, this hits the spot. There are camping spaces near the "beach" (pictured). However, cold bottled water and food options were scarce today (post-COVID). Also, make sure to take a swimming cap to enter the water and a ball to use the sand volleyball court. The water slides are closed for 2 hours from 12:30. The morning was less full than the afternoon.

We were with my family, It was our first time and i'd love to highlight the service of Mr. Rojas and Mr. Celis, gentlemen in the entrace. As well, a small kiosk operate by an amazing young guy and kind woman. Snacks are yummy and tropical, unfortunatly the place itself needs more attention, manteinance, and customer service. Restaurants are really limit in offerings. Pools just work till 5 and seems that every staff dissapeared at that time. Which i concluded they need more people to help. . . I Hope in less than 2 months they get ready to big events like jamming beacuse if they continue with the same service will be so poor.

Most facilities are ok. Restrooms deserve a revamp. It's too expensive for the services offered. Parking service is not included and security is pauper. Maui restaurant is low quality. Slides are open certain times

The place is ok for the price. They do not help kids as they should. My niece requested wifi passcode.. as they say free wifi. But they said they had bad signal... They just set a wrong code on my niece cell.. that is annoying. .. first and last time here.

Nice water park to visit if you're in the area but not worth a special trip. Good amount of big slides but quite a walk away from each other. Different types of animals are found throughout the property. Park does offer a transportation bus to travel the park. Good sized lockers available thru out the park but you need to buy your own lock which you can buy outside the park or within.

Excellent place to stay with your Family. There are many pools for both adults and children, wildlife, and restaurants. The weather and service are excellent. It's 15 minutes from the Colsubsidio Peñalisa Hotel, which is a very good hotel.

I enjoy my time at the park. It has clean facilities, beautiful views and nice swimming pools. The cons- customers had to go across heavy traffic to get to the entrance, customer service inside the facility is awful and a lot of females cleaning Male facilities while guys are using the facilities. Not privacy at all.

The piscilago acuatic park is a place where the people can enjoy several activities like see animals in the zoo that has the park, water slides, walking trails, lakes and restaurants. weekneds the park keep full for the many families that visited to rest and sunbathe.

Amazing place for family and friends there is a lot of walking but there is also a car that can take you to the different attractions

Here you can walk for hours and enjoy the pools. Now, to really have fun, you must dare to try the different slides. Highly recommended!

Too crowded, there's no organization for transport inside the park, so, you can go and take a shower in any pool with a lot of people or make like one hour per slide. It has a Zoo, that's pretty cool, if you like walking, that's a good plan in there.

Awesome theme park. If you really want to enjoy it, this have to be a full day run. On weekends it's really crowded, so try to get as early as you can. The best parts: the train, horse rides, no one smoking and lots of sunrays.

Great park to visit with family or friends. It’s stroller friendly, lots of activities for the kids, make sure they are tall enough for the rides. More than 90cm. Being extra clothes and shoes because there are water attractions that you can easily get soaked. Good sunscreen and hats for all.

Fantastic experience of nature, attractions, coffee flavors and culture, art, landscapes and of course Colombian warmth and hospitality. We had a great time, savored coffee like never before, danced and rejoiced at the folklore show, relaxed walking along the trails. It was a blast.

Amazing amazing experience. There is something for everyone, you can easily do everything in 1 day. By far one of the best folklore shows I have seen and like everyone says, you cannot miss it. The reviews do not lie.

Parque del Café in Quindío is a must-visit destination to enjoy with family or friends 🎢☕. It combines fun, coffee culture, and beautiful landscapes all in one place. The weather is warm, so it’s advisable to wear light clothing and stay hydrated 💧👒. Among its attractions are roller coasters, a cable car, and tours that highlight the history and tradition of Colombian coffee. A truly unique experience you shouldn’t miss!

We had a very fun day at the park. We’re 4 adults and we came for coffee but the park is so much more. It’s a cultural experience and there’s a lot of fun rides to do as well. I can recommend the coffee show, take a stroll in the bamboo park, ofcourse take the teleferico for beautiful views, the train is fun, all the water rides are fun but prepare to get absolutely soaked. The coffee museum in the beginning is a must and the sensory room at the end completes the whole thing. For food I can recommend the oriental place at the food mall near the tree boat ride. Although there are more options at the plaza bolivar (there’s even a Subway). Get your coffee at Juan Valdez or try a granizado. The horse ride is fun (and a complementary $15,000) but a bit boring. I would do it again though! We didn’t expect to spend almost all day here. It’s very fun for kids too and people of all ages. We didn’t try any of the thrill rides like the rollercoasters but they look like a lot of fun. There’s almost no lines to wait for the rides and there’s lockers near the water rides to keep your stuff safe and dry.

Great amusement park and great views of coffee plantations. The “coffee show” is a well performed act that takes you on a journey through the coffee regions of Colombia. Fairly priced well maintained.

We had a fantastic time as a family, and my little one absolutely loved it! It’s great that you can bring food and water inside—very convenient. The pig show was a delightful highlight, full of laughs! If I could make one suggestion, it would be to add more bathrooms along the way, especially for families with little ones who might find it tough to wait. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

Lots of activities, mostly for the young ones, a variety of shows around the park (the negative point: the time schedule of those shows not always match your own). Be ready to walk, is huge. Take a hat or a cap with you, heat and humidity is massive there. The thing that you can't miss: El trapiche, where they sell cold "Mazamorra" with solid melasa.

It is a great park for kids, my kids (6 and 2) enjoyed every minute of it. They provide a kind of an off road stroller (12.000 COP) so you can carry your kid. The shows are great and they are scheduled so as to go with the tour, so you don't have to go around, just follow the path. The stand up comedy show is not as fun as you would think, since it is a couple arguing about everything. My recommendation is to try to go on weekdays so you can move around without problem. Restaurants are ok and not expensive, you can take fruits or small snacks and maybe a couple of water with you,

Okay place, a bit on the expensive side. I went on a weekday so it wasn't as busy but not as lively as expected. They have tons of farm animals and some shows. Expect to walk a lot.

PANACA: Where the cows are friendlier than your in-laws and the goats have more attitude than you. From the second we walked in, it was like National Geographic met Colombian farm life — but with snacks, laughter, and a whole lot of mooing. We fed animals, milked cows (spoiler: it's harder than it looks), and I’m pretty sure one goat tried to adopt me. The animal shows? ICONIC. I laughed, I cheered, I questioned my career choices. The views? Straight out of a telenovela. The air? So fresh I tried to bottle it. The food? Don’t even get me started — I left with a full belly and zero regrets (except maybe not wearing stretchy pants). Whether you're a kid, a grown-up pretending to be mature, or someone who just really wants to hug a donkey — PANACA is the place. 10/10 would let a llama photobomb me again. 🐐📸🇨🇴🔥

Many years ago there were more animal acrobatic shows. It might be due to animal protection laws. Now the small animal show is mostly just two people doing comedy. It's very good except that international tourists get a little lost if they don't speak Spanish.

Beautiful. The shows are especially beautiful. We went to all the afternoon shows which were spectacular. Our kids were enchanted. Also very large place so best to come in sporty and light clothing for all the walking. They have tours, which we didn't do but I am sure it would have made the experience better.

No restaurant was open on a weekday. I don't know how a business can survive working weekends only. The good part was that we're zero traffic...zero food

ITS A NATURE AND ADVENTURE PARADISE JUST 15 MIN AWAY FROM THE CENTER OF IBAGUE, TOTALLY RECOMMENDED IF YOU WANT AN ADVENTURE IN THE MOUNTAINS AND WATERFALLS OR JUST CHILL WITH TE SOUND OF THE RIVER AND BIRDS SINGING

A wonderful place, full of trees, many species of birds.

The sweet nature surrounding the area make a pleasant time. Beautiful restaurants aswell.

Nice canyon, so much ecoturism, and restaurants

Such an incredibly beautiful place a must visit when you come to Colombia

Super plan!! 🗺️

Excellent tour organised by Beyond Colombia through Get you Guide. Included the Tequendama Falls, and since we had some time before our tour, we stopped at a market in Fusagasuga town, which stocked a variety of fruit, vegetables and plants. Great day.

The place looks gorgeous! But the experience of coffee is more for walk and know about plants 🪴 the coffee plants look really sad and without water 💦 The dogs and the hens are in a place like cage, for this reason the dogs are considered “dangerous” because is not possible have the chance to feel free to walk around of the farm. The coffee doesn’t have a method just was put on a carton glass and we drink. The place is beautiful why not? But the experience not was the experience I thought! I hope you have a nice experience than me!

We absolutely LOVED this place! The guide was very calm, friendly and absolutely knowledgeable, and we also met very nice people on the tour from all over the place. We also got a coffee tasting at the end of our tour. What we loved the most is they don’t try to aggressively sell you stuff at the end, but let you make that decision for yourself. You can make a reservation via WhatsApp, which is very convenient. We literally did it a day before.

Very educational. Our tour went through the whole coffee cultivation/preparation process.

we had a tour with my group here. They showed us the whole process of growing coffee beans. Nice green place, where you can walk and explore everything.

Giselle y Camilo we’re super kind and knowledgeable and the house and surrounding area is beautiful! Learning about the different plants and flowers was very interesting. And of course delicious café tasting at the end ! Worth the trip :)

Extremely beautiful site! Our tour guide Alba was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic which made the tour amazing. I had a lot of fun learning about the coffee bean harvest process. I highly recommend visiting. It’s a good get away from the city to explore more into the country.

The zoo is fine. It seems to be that it has been falling apart for some.

Went here on a Friday afternoon. It was a short walk done in a couple of hours. We saw monkeys, tigers, otters, snakes, turtles, capybaras, etc. Good place for kids to explore. Was not very full when we went. They have a restaurant on site.

We had a lovely family time here. The park is big enough to spend a day in it, we enjoyed the sight of all animals and the walk around the lake. We rented a water bike for a ride around the lake and watch ducks and fishes following the water bike, don't forget to buy fish food before riding!. Lunch menu was not cheap but we asked for an "ejecutivo" Dish which was a little more affordable. If the parking lot is full, there are other parking lots around and the fee is for the full day.

A great place to walk and know a little bit more about local fauna

It's recovering from a hard time due to roadblocks on the way Bta - V/cio but their priority was the animal's wellbeing; it's worth giving'em a hand.

Wonderful place, we were surprised to see the variety of animals and the excellent conditions in which they are kept. Much more than what I expected! This place is a must for anyone visiting Villavicencio!

Great zoo with many kind of animals of the Colombia's East zone. Specially to visit in family.

The park has amazing scenery. This National Park is a stunning cloud forest reserve located about 30 minutes Bogotá. There we started what was a pretty arduous walk but certainly made up for by the astounding scenery. This was only part of the park which spans 300 hectares of sub-Andean forest, with elevations from 2,000 to 2,700 meters, and temperatures ranging from 11°C to 17°C. On the way the foliage is dense and you can make out quite a variety of bird and animal life. However, it was a bit of a relief to finally reach the restaurant for Food and the well-deserved rest. If you are hiking be prepared for weather and some difficult walking but it is all worthwhile.

This place was incredible. Great views from the top, abundance of trails through lush forest, huge variety of birds and one area known for butterflies. Staff very friendly, good food. You can stay overnight in lower refuge lodge, private cabin or glamping yurt, you can also tent camp

Such a worthwhile place to visit outside Bogota! Can be done either as a day trip or overnight-- it is beautiful, scenic, quiet, adventurous and run by dedicated, wonderful staff. I stayed overnight in the bellota and it was very comfortable and my kids loved sleeping in a "treehouse"-- stunning views and such an interesting experience. Whether you go for the day or are staying overnight, start early! The car park is nowhere near someplace you can put your bags down and then hike/ explore-- I learned this the hard way and had a TON of extra stuff we didn't need but nevertheless had to schlep up and down the steep hike to the 'refugio'-- or main area where everything takes place (horseback riding, zipline, meals, accommodation, etc). Yes, check in is at 3, which really means you should be parking your car no later than noon to start the process and walk down. They do have jeep or horse service if you don't want to walk, but it is a beautiful if not challenging path both up and down. I can't say say enough positive things about the overall experience: our accommodation was clean and lovely, the food was fantastic and we had so much fun doing their activities! They even host a nighttime walk followed by a campfire where you can learn about the area and see nocturnal animals like the native monkeys to Chicaque. This is an athletic vacation but one that is rewarded with wonderful scenery, hospitality and connection.

Amazing place! Beautiful scenery with beautiful areas to hike too. Hiked around for 2 days and stayed a night in the hotel. The staff is absolutely amazing and helpful. The food was fresh and delicious. Definitely want to visit again.

One oc the most incredible places on earth. Beyond spectacular scenery, rare birds and butterflies, and everywhere you look, spectacular beauty. Absolutely not to be missed !

Only for experienced hikers, trekkers and campers. We nearly died trying to go down the slippy wet stone trails as others tumbled too. We got about 1/3 way down and went back as our knees gave out so that we could hardly stand let alone side step on the rocks. We went back on a vehicle trail with many rest stops fortunately before it rained. The staff at Arboloco lodge/Cafe were great on finding out we had to give up not making it to the lower main restaurant where our ticket package fresh made lunch was waiting had the three lunches brought up on the shuttle. They were delicious and nutritious and filling not just because of the two pitchers of great Sangria which led to a great nap waiting for our taxi back to Bogota. Well laid out park and campers picking up firewood said they were enjoying themselves. Clearly the "Forest in the clouds" as foggy when we came. Just be in shape and prepared beautiful tropical setting minus bugs. We may come again more prepared. We walk 3-5 km every day but it was not enough.

Nice outdoor adventure. Interesting paths through the forest. Tranquility. Nice viewpoints. Chance to do a zipline and tree climbing. Not many other people in October. Strenuous because of the height, but overall a great way to spend a day hiking away from Bogotá‘s noisy city.

Really great museum! I didn't realize how much work Botero had done, and it's not all paintings. There are sculptures as well as pencil work in this collection. There is a nice courtyard in the middle of the museum (I was told the building us nearly 250 years old). The garden had a nice fountain and there is plenty to do if you want to grab a bite to eat or a cup of coffee. Bathrooms available.

Did not know Botero, enjoyed his style which is rather unique. The bronze sculptures do provoke a smile. Donated other paintings from Picasso and Max Ernst beside others. Happy to have visited this free museum. Recommended!!

To truly appreciate Ferdinand Botero’s wry sense of humor unique artistry is to see up close in person a large body of his artwork including his sculptures housed together in this museum. Extra bonus is his private collection of internationally famous artists from Picasso to Giacometti. Free admission to not just locals but also to foreigners which to my mind reflects the non judgemental ways and generous spirit of the Columbian people.

Beautiful museum with a beautiful story. It’s also free due to the man who it’s named after. Worth a visit

This is an amazing museum you can visit for free in Bogotá. The collections of Botero (and others) are displayed here for everyone to see. It is a great place to relax for a moment and enjoy the art. The works of Botero are quite amusing to look at. The museum has a beautiful open courtyard with a relaxing ambience. There are toilets present. There are multiple museums connected to the backside of the building. This place is really worth a visit!

Remarkable collection of Botero and works from his private collection. Don’t miss the temporary exhibition gallery above the excellent cafe. Oh and the entry is Free.

The Botero Museum is a cultural gem in the heart of Bogotá. Its collection not only showcases some of Fernando Botero’s most iconic works but also includes pieces by great international masters such as Picasso, Dalí, Renoir, and Miró. Admission is free, making it a must-visit for both tourists and locals. The atmosphere is calm, the galleries are well maintained, and it’s the perfect place to enjoy art at your own pace. A space that beautifully blends history, art, and beauty in every corner.

1st time in Bogota. Had an AWESOME time. We were cautious with time restraints in the southern portion of the city..... We hired a driver for a few hours. It made the sightseeing more pleasurable.

Nice place. A little crowded and surrounded by street vendors but I suppose that part of the charming. A lot of pigeons too. Very important: Safe place… and beautiful museums near as well as very good restaurants (all prices)

Nice place to come and check as a tourist. There are tons of small local places to eat. Just don't get discouraged by the size of small street local restaurants. Make sure you have cash on you because many places won't accept credit cards. This is safe area to walk specially during daytime. Many street sellers so you can get any type of souvenirs you could dream on. Don't forget to negotiate with the street vendors!!

The Plaza de Bolívar is an important historical and cultural spot in Bogotá. It’s interesting to see the grand buildings like the cathedral and the government palace all in one place. However, the square itself felt a bit chaotic and not very well maintained. There were quite a few pigeons and street vendors, which can take away a bit from the atmosphere. Still, it’s worth a short visit to get a sense of the city’s history – just don’t expect too much charm.

Very pretty the squared, it’s not weekend, but full of people, the near by streets also full with people and vendors. The building there is Colonial architectural style， very special and full of fun.

Beautiful plaza in the heart of Bogota Colombia. Full of life color and especially pigeons. People sell food that you can use to feed the pigeons with. On one corner there's a cathedral that was closed the day we were there. Several streets go off and directions with tons of little shops. Plaza de armas is also nearby, an easy walk. A must see when coming to Bogota.

Nice historical place to view and people watch. I went at a time there were more birds than people. Had a nice experience. Very safe

Great big museum in Bogota... Good location... One of the main things and attraction to see when you in this city and all Colombia ... The entrance is 5000 pezos, about 1euro...its cheap...Museum is on 3 floors..They are open every day except Monday until 6pm... There you can see all Colombian history... Also you can see some videos in few rooms... So much pieces of gold, neckles, rings, crowns..In the basement you can buy some unique things.. Sometimes it's very crowded... All recommendations for visit and enjoy if you are in Bogota

A wonderful place to visit to get an idea of aboriginal culture of gold making and their ingenuity and craftsmanship. Some pieces are so delicately made with in such small details that it is unbelievable how they could achieve this. You'll learn a lot about metal and gold craftsmanship and the beliefs and culture of the people who occupied the land before European colonization. In regards to accessibility, easy access for all with elevators and easy guide signs. Translation in English were available, and was possible to get audio guide. In August 2025, it was free on Sundays for attendance.

The Restaurant...thats all ill say! The museum is insightful to the norms of the areas and some insight to their industrious ways to create tools and jewelry. Also their awareness of surrounding or impeding cultures. But the Restaurant took the cake! Waitstaff was so nice and helpful. The runner for the food was so polite and considerate. Our waitress was sweet and on it! Again, the museum is dope but the Restaurant took the cake! And not the Cafe....the restaurant. Im not sure what the Cafe has because we never made it there. We had the salmon salad ( amazing greens choice and cooking style...roasted bits added depth and texture) and the pumpkin curry...just so frigging good ( roasted pumpkin rib like is was a salmon slab...curry with a wonderful balance of coconut cream and spices and the coconut rice was perfectly baked with coconut flavored and tiny fluffy pillows of savoriness)...and the tangerine juice...great museum! Definitely would stop pass!

A beautiful and informational museum with a lot of history about Gold and the generations of many Colombian tribes and the significance of many symbolism and it's meaning all explained well. It's a gorgeous and humbling experience. I wish there was a little bit more to interact with but overall it's definitely worth a visit.

Many pieces of arts and introduction, we don’t have much time to read every detail, I saw someone is using kind of earphone to listen to voice explanation, look good. But just don’t know where to rent? How many languages it has. Sunday is free to entrance, very worthy to visit.

A nice quiet place, it's wonderful how history and indigenous stories have been told through gold. There is a nice restaurant in there as well.

We visited this museum while exploring Bogotá. We visited during a weekend and there was a line in front of the building. It took about 10 minutes to get in. The entrance fee is quite low. The museum itself is quite big with multiple floors. Most information is in Spanish and English. When we visited it was quite busy and sometimes there were too many people to properly enjoy the collections. However, there were many impressive artefacts and we were glad we saw them to better understand Colombian history and culture. There is also a gift shop and a coffee shop in the basement. This is a perfect place to visit on a rainy day.

Liked the place, used aerial tramway while climbing up, awesome views, nice church, bit crowded though, due to it decided to walk down instead of waiting in the queue for tram. There are small shops available all the way down for snaks & drinks.

I highly recommend going in the morning and buying tickets in advance online. I went at 10:00 on a weekday, and saved about 20 minutes by skipping the ticket line. When I came down around 11:30, the lines were so long, even if you bought tickets in advance you would still be waiting. This is the only tourist attraction in Colombia I’ve done without vendors hassling the whole time. There is a barricade by the entrance, so once you cross it they’ll leave you alone. There are a handful on the hiking trail, but they are not aggressive at all. This can be a very spiritual experience. There was a church having mass when I went, are there is a Way of the Cross. If you are religious at all, I would encourage you to lean into it and use this time for reflection and worship. If not, you can definitely skip all of the religious stuff. It should go without saying, but it’s 3100m/10,000ft in elevation, so if you live at sea level, be prepared for a very strenuous walk. But there are restaurants and food vendors, so if you need to take a break and get some food or drink, you can.

Highly recommend! Visited on a Saturday afternoon in October and barely had to wait. Took the tram up and the gondola down — I’d definitely suggest that combo. By the time we came down around 5 p.m., there was a long line for the gondola going up. I actually wish I’d planned to walk down; once at the top, I realized it would’ve been a beautiful route. There’s also a lovely church up there with several services throughout the day, very welcoming atmosphere.

Really enjoyed Monserrate. Cable car was fun and walking down trail took some time and our legs were certainly feeling it the next day. But it was a enjoyable long scenic trail. Make sure to buy advance tickets to avoid long lines. No need to worry about times since no one checks. Just have pre paid tickets. The only warning we can give is DO NOT under any circumstances eat at those small restaurants after local shops. We got terribly sick later in day. Yes, they have amazing views but the food not only made us sick but was horrible, and not fresh. ONLY eat at the 2 main restaurants to avoid any problems. You have been warned!

Monserrate is one of Bogotá’s most breathtaking landmarks—towering at roughly 3,152 meters, it offers a stunning vantage point over the city. You can reach the top by foot, funicular, or cable car, all leading to a peaceful neo-Gothic church called the Sanctuary of the Fallen Lord. Once there, enjoy panoramic city views, grab a bite in one of the small restaurants, or browse local artisan stalls. It’s a powerful mix of natural beauty, spiritual calm, and cultural heritage.

Sure the view is amazing and the area offers beautiful bird walks and a nice Cafe Santa Clara! But: 1) they close the stairs down at 4.15pm so you have to take one of the other options. 2) they close the funicular at the same time which means an hour in line on the weekend. Or... Go to Santa Clara and have a drink and watch birds until the line shrinks after 17:30.

Worth the drive, although you must pay attention to how the navigation takes you to the parking lot. The view is great, there’s also a bunch of places to get coffee and a bite.

It’s pretty but it’s small. With so the bars nearby i indulge there is great night life here

Great park! Tables, seats amongst the flowers to play domino and bring your coffee. Kids playground and Dog play area. Beautiful giant palms. Safe, surrounded by restaurants and shopping. No ticket needed.

There’s always something going on at Parque de la 93 🌳☀️ This park may be small, but they really made the most out of it. There is lots of seating, both benches and little tables with chairs, and even the occasional coffee stand. You have a lovely view of the mountains and palm trees from one end of the park. There’s a playground for kids and all around the park, there are nice cafes, restaurants and bars. Since there are many companies nearby, it’s also a popular spot for people to take a break in the sun. The park has its own Instagram page where they share events, offer yoga classes and other sports activities. The space is often used for pop up stands, markets and different cultural activities. There’s a big shopping festival called Feria EVA that happens here. The whole space gets transformed into pink stalls with local artists and brands selling their clothes, jewelry, decor and more. They set up a stage with live music and have food stands around the area as well. So, as you can see, there’s always something to do or see at Parque de la 93.

It’s a peaceful green space in the middle of the bustling city, perfect for a relaxing stroll or just sitting down with a coffee and watching the world go by. The atmosphere is vibrant yet calm, and it feels very safe and welcoming.

Parque 93 in Bogotá is a hidden gem, offering a delightful blend of tranquility and vibrant energy. The park boasts a plethora of food choices, with standout options like Starbucks and local options,providing an exquisite culinary experience. From local flavors to international delights, there's a dish to satisfy every palate. The beauty of the scenery is truly captivating, creating a serene escape amidst the urban hustle. Lush greenery, well-maintained paths, and charming water features make it an ideal spot for a leisurely stroll or a relaxing afternoon picnic. I particularly loved the amount, size, and greenery of the trees in this particular area. For those seeking a laid-back atmosphere, Parque 93 is a haven. The ascetic charm of the park, combined with the diverse food offerings, makes it an easy-going destination for locals and visitors alike. Whether you're a food enthusiast or someone craving a tranquil retreat, Parque 93 delivers a harmonious experience that leaves a lasting impression.

Stopped here after dinner to just walk around and definitely Safe to hang out at night as a single woman - there’s so many people out. There are play spaces for kids, but at night it’s gonna be a lot of teenagers/couple. With the surrounding cafés and restaurants in Parker great to just hang out and talk for a place of a space for greenery.

It’s a beautiful little park for kids... it has areas assigned by age group with signs, it also has security guards. The sand pit is great, along with the boat, and the climbing spider ball. Kids absolutely love this park! I wish they would close it off with small/short gate since it’s a very business oriented area and a lot of grown ups also like to hang out. The grassy area has a lot of events but it’s mostly for dogs and grown ups.

A beautiful place to have a walk, lots of birds and very peaceful

It is very rustic Park with no trails maps nor toilet or changing facilities nor food nor refreshments. The lake is muddy not looking good for swimming with looks like big carp and some ducks. Trails in the area and around the lake are hand-built stone paths take care walking often people walk beside on smoother ground. Several groups came when we did and one walk up above to view point or around the lake all left in less than one hour. Lots of tropical plants and entrance displayed wide variety of butterflies but we saw none. There is a nice little restaurant across the road from the entrance. Admission was 28509 for 3 adults. Long drive from La Vega for not much.

A magical place in La Vega Cundinamarca, you'll figure out a beautiful lagoon surrounded by several dirt roads with lots of nature.

A peaceful place to expend time to walk, enjoy and having great time

Really peaceful and beautiful place, great view from the top

2 different options: 1- Drive from Bogotá(1hr and 20 min) Check out the lake and have lunch in La Vega.( Many more options than at the lake) 2- For enthusiast bikers and hikers, ride your bike from La Vega to the lake. (1.2 hour climb) then hike your way up to the peak of the mountain next to the lake (40 min climb).

It's a pretty place near by La Vega, just be aware that if the weather has been a little rainy, some parts of the path may be muddy.

It's a real world-class park! They have tonnes of things to do, but the best part is their condors conservation efforts and ecopark. Better come early at the opening hours to have the whole day for exploring their wonderful facilities

Great place to visit with your family or partner. Lots to see and rides throughout the park. Ideal to spend an entire day here doing all what the park has to offer

A cute hosh posh of random things. Great way to laze about and casually see some attractions.

Jaime Duque Park is one of my favorite places to visit with friends or family.It has a beautiful zoo where there is a great variety of mammals, felines, birds and many animals that are in very good condition.You can also enjoy a wide variety of restaurants and dining options.You have many activities for the whole family and for all ages: the medieval castle, The Thousand and One Nights, the aviary and a giant map of Colombia in high relief. It is an experience that you cannot miss.

Visited with my family.. We loved the place.. The zoo area is beautiful.. The park is huge, very organized and with plenty of things to do for adults and children. Visited on a Saturday and it wasn't too crowded. We wished we had more time to visit a second time since there is not enough time to enjoy the whole park and activities in just one day.

The Colombian version of Disney world. For only about $16 ( and a percentage of ticket sales gets donated to a children’s hospital ) you can easily spend the entire day enjoying full access to the whole park which includes a couple of boat rides, museums and a ton of attractions. You’re even allowed to bring your own snacks and drinks. I had a great time and I highly recommend this park.

This place is awesome Is so large and it have very attractive museums, the zoo is incredible It's animals are beautiful En 1 day don't have seeing all attractive places into it The best thematic park in colombia

What a place, really cool and definitely something you need to do at least once in your life. I liked the first part as you get to see all the different rooms one after the other, they have cool lighting inside so the rooms look really nice. I also really liked the first movie room where it explained how the mine was created and why. The only part I didn’t like was the part where they are selling stuff as it seemed more like a tourist attraction and less on an mine. You can’t see the full mine and I wish they had more adventures activities and more of the mine open.

Impressive place. Absolutely must visit if in Bogota/Colombia. Take your time inside the cathedral / mine. There are shops etc down there. Easy spend 1-2 hour down. Recommend to take the train/bus when exit - free.

The Catedral de Sal de Zipaquirá is one of the most unique and awe-inspiring attractions I’ve ever visited. Built inside a working salt mine, this underground cathedral combines natural beauty, architecture, and spirituality in a truly magical way. The moment you descend into the tunnels, you can feel the peaceful and sacred atmosphere all around you. The lighting design is breathtaking — colors reflecting off the salt walls create a surreal, almost celestial ambiance. Each of the Stations of the Cross is beautifully carved, and the main cathedral chamber leaves you speechless with its grand scale and artistic detail. It’s incredible to think everything here is made of salt! The guided tours are well-organized and informative, offering fascinating insights into the history of the mine and the faith that inspired its transformation. There’s also a lovely souvenir area, a café, and even a small light show that adds a modern touch to the experience. This isn’t just a church — it’s a masterpiece of engineering, art, and devotion hidden deep underground. A visit to Zipaquirá wouldn’t be complete without seeing it!

The Catedral de Sal de Zipaquirá is one of the most incredible tour experiences you can have near Bogotá. The moment you enter the salt mine, the atmosphere, lighting, and architecture take your breath away. The cathedral is beautifully carved, peaceful, and truly unique — unlike anything else in the world. The tour is well organized, the guides are knowledgeable, and every section of the mine tells a powerful story. Whether you’re visiting for cultural, historical, or spiritual reasons, this place is unforgettable.

An absolutely beautiful place and definitely worth a visit! Very glad I booked a small group tour as there were some massive groups with loud tour guides, which we were able to avoid to an extent. There was also a very big queue when we were living. It was a bank holiday Monday, so I’m sure that didn’t help.

What have they done to this place? I’ve been here 10 years ago and it was amazing. And of course it is still impressive but they have now turned it into a Disneyland/shopping mall. There are are dozens of shops inside the mine, I’ve counted at least two ice cream shops and someone thought that it was a good idea to put a cafeteria in there. So now you walk around this impressive man made structure smelling burned oil…On top of that the audioguide is a joke. They tell you absolutely nothing about the history of the place, how the indigenous started mining. It’s focused on religious stuff and how Jesus walked with the cross. This h smithing to do with the place. Furthermore they have increased the price for foreigners to 110.000. Which would have been fine if they would have left the place as it was, instead of turning into a fun park.

The Salt Cathedral is an unforgettable experience, blending faith, art, and natural wonder deep inside the earth. Walking through the illuminated tunnels feels almost otherworldly, and the sculpted Stations of the Cross add a powerful sense of devotion. The main cathedral hall is stunning, but the gentle presence of the Rosary Mother statue stands out even more—quiet, comforting, and beautifully crafted. It’s a place that invites reflection, prayer, and a deep sense of peace, making the visit both moving and memorable.

A lake of incredible beauty. You'll climb to an altitude of over 3,000 metres to observe the lake. Don't worry, the climb is fairly straightforward and accompanied by a guide. With several historical pauses. A must if you're ever in the area. You won't regret the view.

One of the most beautiful lakes in Colombia. At an altitude of over 3,000 meters. It is worth visiting with your eyes closed. The climb to reach the top is about 20'-30' minutes. The view you see as you climb up is fantastic!!!

I enjoyed having a look here, but it is a bit overrated. The main problem is that it is compulsory to have a guide (in Spanish only!). You cannot walk alone. And to make things more annoying, after the tour finishes, you are not permitted to walk back from where you came. You have to do a longer route and pay extra to take a bus back to the main entry point.

Beautiful place where the legend of el Dorado came from. Totally a must visit when in Bogota!

Awesome view, the guides as very good and knowledgeable, the place is great, the hiking is really not that bad, very easy to do.

Interesting history about the Spanish's and British's involvement in attempting to drain the lake in search of gold. Good job done by the local authorities to conserve and preserve the ecosystem around the lake. Uphill walk (slightly strenuous) to the lake. Unique vegetation in the park

This place is Awesome. The views are breathtaking, the story fascinating and the guides are very knowledgeable. Our tour guide, Paula was extraordinary. She did a great job. A must for nature lover, and see what beauty colombia has. Bring raincoat / umbrella.
