Overview

This private 12-hour tour from Bogotá is designed to reveal the very best of Villa de Leyva and its surroundings in one unforgettable journey. With private round-trip transport and a dedicated guide by your side, you’ll travel at your own pace, uncovering history, culture, and landscapes that feel timeless.

The adventure begins at Sisga Dam, a perfect spot for breathtaking photos, before continuing to Ráquira, a colorful town where Colombia’s best artisans keep centuries-old traditions alive. In Villa de Leyva, you’ll walk its cobblestone streets and stand in awe at the vast Plaza Mayor, where colonial charm remains untouched.

Your guide will lead you to the Fossil Museum (entry included) to discover prehistoric wonders, and finally to the Pozos Azules, striking turquoise pools unlike anything else in Colombia.

It’s more than sightseeing—it’s a private journey through legends, traditions, and the magic of Colombia’s highlands.
