The full tour begins at 9:00 am in Parque de la 93, in northern Bogotá. The bus heads south past landmarks that define contemporary Bogotá: El Campín Stadium, home to major football matches and concerts; Simón Bolívar Park, the city's largest green space; and the Salitre Mágico theme park, before skirting Corferias, the convention centre, with a brief stop for stopover passengers along the way.

The bus continues into Bogotá's Historic Centre, where the second part begins: a 2.5-hour guided walk through La Candelaria, the colonial area that holds the city's founding history. Around 10:30 am you'll get off at Plaza de la Concordia, a traditional market, for a tasting of exotic tropical fruits — lulo, granadilla, feijoa, and other varieties found only here. From there you'll walk to Chorro de Quevedo, where Bogotá was founded in 1538, now one of the city's most photographed spots for its street art and student vibe.

The rest of the walk blends history and flavour: sample traditional Colombian snacks and speciality coffee while the guide explains how this area evolved into today's cultural epicentre. The walk culminates at Plaza de Bolívar, the political heart of the country, surrounded by the National Capitol, the Primatial Cathedral, and the Palace of Justice. It closes with a visit to a Colombian emerald workshop.

Travellers who book the Monserrate extension ascend with a guide, who shares the hill's history and significance for about an hour. The activity ends at the top: stay for lunch or explore on your own, or descend with the guide, ending at the ticket office below. Travellers who skip the extension continue on the panoramic bus back to Parque de la 93 or Zona T.
