On this guided tour of Monserrate, you'll explore a key spot in Bogota, a mountain that offers views and cultural history.

Tour Details

We will meet at the ticket office of the Monserrate cable car at the scheduled time to start our guided tour. From this location, we'll take the cable car to the mountain's summit, where you will enjoy exceptional views of the city.

At the top, we will visit the Basilica of the Fallen Lord of Monserrate and discuss its significance as a pilgrimage destination, attracting tourists globally. The tour will include insights into Catholic traditions prevalent in Colombia.

As we walk around the mountain, we will stop at all the main viewpoints, allowing you to appreciate Bogota from different heights at an altitude of 3152 metres (10341 feet). This elevation provides an extensive view of the city and its surroundings.

We'll also visit the wishing well, where you can toss a coin and make a wish at the feet of the Virgin of Monserrate. This tradition is a highlight of the tour.

Finally, we will conclude our hour-and-a-half-long tour by returning to our initial meeting point.
