a journey that will leave you refreshed
My trip to Guatavita Lake and the Upside Down House was a delightful escape from the ordinary. The serene beauty of Guatavita Lake provided a tranquil setting to unwind and connect with nature. The whimsical experience of visiting the Upside Down House added a touch of playfulness and created lasting memories. The friendly staff and the charm of the patience lanes added to the overall enjoyment of the trip. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with a dash of whimsy, I highly recommend visiting Guatavita Lake and exploring the Upside Down House. It's a journey that will leave you refreshed, inspired, and with a smile on your face.

Live an extreme experience with virgin nature.
It is an extreme experience of contact with nature. The feeling of living as the avatar.... The guide tells you the customs and history. It requires extreme effort to ascend the mountain and enjoy the view of the lagoon... but slowly it is achieved...

A breath of fresh air
This tour was a delightful exploration of a treasured city, complete with a two-hour walk that offered lots of fresh air and beautiful scenery. Plus, the upside down house - a crazy and unique attraction that added a fun touch to the experience. The tour is best enjoyed on weekdays when the city is less crowded and you can take in the sights at a leisurely pace. The hike is not very strenuous, making it suitable for most fitness levels. Overall, this tour is a great way to spend a day, offering a mix of natural beauty, unique attractions, and a charming city atmosphere. It's a reminder of life's simple pleasures - fresh air, a good walk and small-town charm.

Avoid this company
Ceasar the owner, was awful. Everything was ad-hoc improvised tour. Very little information. The tour was way overpriced. Id ask for moeby back if I could get in contact with ceasor. Oh and the tickets were sold out at the up-side down house. Like who does that? Nothing was done to remedy the situation. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!

Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bogotá.
How much does Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit cost?
+
Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bogotá usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bogotá is not rushed.
Is Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bogotá, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bogotá can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bogotá and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bogotá within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bogotá?
+
On Outty we rank every Bogotá experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Free Graffiti Walking Tour Every Day in Bogota, Bogota Zipaquira Salt Cathedral Private Tour + Lunch, Private City Tour Bogota + Monserrate, Gold, Botero and Candelaria.. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bogotá?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bogotá?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit?
+

Does Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 646 listed pickup locations in and around Bogotá. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Lake Guatavita Private Tour from Bogotá with Guatavita Town Visit offered in?
+
