Hi! I’m Javier, a professional tour guide and a true lover of Colombian history and culture. I enjoy sharing stories, traditions, and experiences that allow travelers to discover an authentic side of Colombia, the one that doesn’t always appear in traditional guidebooks.
My tours are spaces for connection and exchange, where travelers from all over the world can not only explore the city, but also connect with its people, past, and identity.
📲 Important: when making your reservation, please make sure to leave your WhatsApp number, as I’ll use it to send you all the necessary tour information (meeting point, recommendations, and key details).
It will be a pleasure to guide you and show you Colombia from a genuine, historical, and local perspective.

Museo del Oro Tairona - Casa de la AduanaThe gold museum allows us to observe different pieces of pre-Hispanic and current indigenous art. In this wonderful place we will talk about who the Taironas were and why they became extinct. On the other hand, as its name indicates, we can appreciate pieces of gold.2
Outside visit
Parque Simon BolívarIn every place and corner of Colombia there is some place related to the same name "Simón Bolivar", and here we explain a little bit of everything; pre-Hispanic history, independence history, architecture, sculptures, etc. It almost feels like traveling back in time!3
