Private Chingaza páramo day tour from Bogotá with La Calera breakfast, reserve ceremony, guided hike, snacks, and hotel pickup, rain-ready.

“I am only giving a 4 out of 5 because the agency didn’t communicate the correct itinerary to the guide. We did not go to laguna buitrago but went to an Ecopalacio Reserve within the park. It was still beautiful but they should communicate the accurate itinerary for future clients.”

7.Birdwatching, Nature & photography in Sumapaz National Park

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 7 reviews · 8 to 10 hours (approx.) · from $370

Birdwatch in Colombia’s Sumapaz National Park from Bogotá. Small group, early start, expert guides, and lunch included.

“My colleagues and I are working on water resources and since the paramo is so important we took the opportunity to go up Sumpaz NP, near Bogotá. For my own interests, the birds were a nice bonus! OSwaldo did a great job explaining anything from Colombia's sociology, upcoming elections, ecology, the birds (he found the really special ones), and it goes on. On top of that, he was by far the safest driver we had for the week. It was cold, wet and miserable but we had a really nice time!”
