Bogotá & Villa de Leyva Holidays


south & central america
Vibrant Bogotá is emerging as a cosmopolitan city with an exciting art and food scene. The city has many interesting neighbourhoods filled with fascinating museums, pretty plazas and grand buildings, backed by the stunning Andes Mountains. Wander through historic La Candelaria, where crumbling colonial buildings contrast with modern graffiti murals, and cobbled alleys are peppered with street vendors and museums. Or head to the northern suburbs of the city, which are home to some excellent restaurants, boutiques, chic bars and coffee shops.

A few hours’ drive from Bogotá, the wonderfully preserved colonial town of Villa de Leyva is bursting with white-washed buildings and cobbled streets, leading to leafy plazas.

Trailfinders offers a range of Bogotá holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you feel like taking the cable car up Monserrate Hill for stunning views of the city and towering Andes Mountains, or want to sample the best coffee with an expert guide - they are the perfect people to ask.
