Salt Cathedral tour in Bogotá is one of those experiences that can completely change the way you see the city and its surroundings. The only way you wouldn’t enjoy being in Bogotá is if you’ve never lifted your head. Not while walking, not on the bus, not even during a stroll through the historic center. It doesn’t matter if you come from another city, another country, or if you’re local. On your way to work or just wandering, many people become ostrich walkers, eyes buried in their phones, never looking up.
But sometimes all it takes is a moment. Maybe you’re sitting with a beer when suddenly the crack of a tejo explodes nearby. You flinch. You look up. And you begin to see. Feel lucky. Don’t lose the impulse. Keep your gaze high: Monserrate, Guadalupe, the eastern hills. Walk along the Environmental Axis, water flowing at your side, until you reach 3rd Avenue. Arrive at La Concordia. Stand there, beer in hand. Breathe. Turn all the way around, letting your eyes embrace the city in 360 degrees.
And if you want to go beyond the city, a Salt Cathedral tour in Zipaquirá is the perfect complement. Known as the First Wonder of Colombia, this underground cathedral carved in salt mines is a mix of history, spirituality, and architecture. It’s a must-see for travelers who want more than just the usual city sights.
You can also combine your trip with other unforgettable experiences: a Bogotá walking tour through La Candelaria, a food tour Bogotá to taste Colombian flavors, a city tour Bogotá to explore contrasts, or even a Chorrera hike tour in Bogotá, the tallest waterfall in the country. Coffee lovers will enjoy a coffee farm tour Bogotá, where you’ll learn the process behind the world’s most famous beans.
