A 2.5 hour specialty coffee workshop in Bogotá’s Chapinero with English guides, regional tastings, and a short neighborhood walk.
“There were many great highlights with this experience. I really did enjoy learning about the different coffees; and how to properly taste for the balance, note, and sweetness of the different types of coffee. Awesome tour guide! She was quite knowledgeable about coffee”
Beginner friendly Bogotá graffiti workshop where you invent a name and paint a throwup 3D piece with expert coaching at Ocio Gallery.
“I was very impressed both by the artist who led this workshop and by the gallery (OCIO) where it was hosted. The workshop started with a chance to explore the gallery, which is full of amazing prints by an array of Colombian artists. They also sell a line of printed clothing - really interesting work, and a chance to take home an exceptional souvenir. (If you don't take the workshop, you could still have a super visit to the gallery, which is close to the La Perseverancia Market and lots of eating options.) The grafitti workshop took place in a courtyard behind the building, with walls covered by experiments and…”

Walk La Candelaria with a local guide, then taste Colombian coffee and cacao in a barista-led workshop with latte art.
“Juanita was amazing and her English is fluent. We are a family of 6, with 4 teenagers (19, 18, 16 and 14yr) and she engaged us all for 4 hours. She was full of stories about Columbia’s history and she knows a huge amount, is passionate about her country and wants to share that with others. We really enjoyed the coffee/cacao experience where we were educated about the cacao and coffee process by a woman who has set up a great coffee/cacao shop. Juanita was really generous with her recommendations and helped us navigate the city with ideas for the next few days. I would thoroughly recommend Juanita and her…”
Learn graffiti color and aerosol basics in Bogotá, from marker sketches to a 3D wall piece, in a 2 hour private class in Macarena.
“It was an amazing experience! Diego took me from the basics with marker on paper and foundational principles all the way up to spray painting a 3D design on the wall. I loved it and highly recommend. Skip the tourist baloney and experience the real deal!”
