Bogotá & Villa de Leyva Holidays


south & central america
Dynamic 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 heritage 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, home to excellent restaurants, boutiques, chic bars and coffee shops.

Just further north of Bogotá lie the pretty, heritage towns of Villa de Leyva and Barichara. Bursting with white-washed buildings, colonial history, and cobbled streets leading to leafy plazas, they offer a picturesque and authentic stay. Villa de Leyva’s Plaza Mayor is one of the largest cobbled squares in Latin America.

Trailfinders offers a range of Villa de Leyva and 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.
