Solo travel experience

I loved Bogotá. Though I only had time for Monseratte and La Candelaria, I could easily spend a few days exploring. I felt safe, even when exploring alone and taking pictures. I made sure to take a hotel taxi before it got dark.

Solo travel experience

I felt very safe in Bogotá and I loved the old part of the city. It's really pretty and clean, and there are lots of police officers on the streets. I took a bus to Zipaquirá to see the salt cathedral, and it was amazing. The Museo del Oro and Museo Botero were also really great. The Museo del Oro is one of the best history museums I've ever been to.

Solo travel experience

I stayed in the La Candelaria area and that was relaxed, day and night. I did a few tip-based city walks (one about food, another about street art), visited the Botero museum and the gold museum, took the funicular up to Monserrate, and did a day trip to the salt cathedral and Guatavita. I’ll definitely go back in the future to see more of the country.
