You’ll meet at the base of this mountain on the eastern side of Bogota. Once here you’ll decide on which form of transport to take to the top of this sacred mountain; the teleferico (aerial tramway) or the funicular. Regardless of which way you choose, you are almost guaranteed fantastic sites on the way up, and of course, once you’re on the summit the panoramic view of the city is quite breathtaking. At the top, you’ll have plenty of time to wander through the markets and gift shops full of hand-made souvenirs from different parts of the country. You’ll also explore the beautiful 17th-century Monserrate Monastery with El Señor Caído (“The Fallen Lord”) shrine. Before making your way back down the hill, you'll be able to choose once again to take the teleferico (aerial tramway) or the funicular for the wonderful views.

Private Monserrate Half Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bogotá.
How much does Private Monserrate Half Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $248 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 Private Monserrate Half Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Private Monserrate Half Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 Private Monserrate Half Day Tour?
+
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 Private Monserrate Half Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Monserrate Half Day Tour?
+
Around 0 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Monserrate Half Day Tour 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 Private Monserrate Half Day Tour?
+
Included: Entrance Fees; Monserrate Tour; Private Bilingual Guide; and Monserrate Transport - Teleferico and Funicular (aerial tramway and train). Not included: Lunch, Meals and drinks not mentioned in the plan; Experiences and transportation not mentioned in the plan; and Personal expenses and tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private Monserrate Half Day Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 367 listed pickup locations in and around Bogotá. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time.
What languages is Private Monserrate Half Day Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Monserrate Half Day Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Private Monserrate Half Day Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
