Overview

Are you ready to immerse yourself in the colours, flavours, and green mountains of our land? I invite you to live an unforgettable experience that begins with the excitement of buying fresh ingredients at the 7 de Agosto Market Square. Among fruit, vegetable, and handicraft stalls, you will immerse yourself in the very essence of our land. After exploring the bustling life of the square, we will embark on a journey to the green Eastern Hills of Bogotá. From the viewpoints above the road, you will contemplate our city and marvel at the serenity of the San Rafael Reservoir, a dam that is a green oasis of tranquility after the urban hustle and bustle. In my cosy country house, together we will prepare the emblematic ajiaco. While the aroma of potatoes and corn fills the air, we will take the opportunity to walk the forest trails, connecting with nature and feeding the soul. At the end of this unforgettable experience, and after a coffee, we will return to Bogotá.

Once we meet at the meeting point, we will take you to visit and buy ingredients at the Plaza del 7 de Agosto (15 minutes), where we will take a tour of our variety of fruits and vegetables, selecting the ingredients for lunch (45 minutes). We will go up the road to La Calera to my country house located in the Eastern Hills of Bogotá (30 minutes). On the tour we will make two stops: one to admire the best panoramic view of Bogotá from the Mirador de la Paloma, while we enjoy a typical Bogotá coffee (20 minutes). The second stop will be at the viewpoint of the San Rafael Reservoir with the town of La Calera as a beautiful backdrop (20 minutes). Once at my house, we will prepare the ingredients together to have the best typical dish of the Andean region (1 hour). While lunch is ready, we will take the most beautiful walk (40 minutes) in the middle of the native forest that surrounds us. At the end of lunch, we will taste a delicious Colombian coffee with a typical dessert (40 minutes) and we will transport you back to the meeting point enjoying the best landscapes of the Bogotá savannah (30 minutes).
