Step beyond Bogotá and visit two of Colombia's most notable landmarks: Guatavita Lagoon and the Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá. Combining nature, mythology, engineering and culture, this full-day experience includes entrance fees, transportation and guided commentary throughout the journey.

Your day begins at Laguna de Guatavita, a sacred site of the Muisca people and the setting behind the legend of El Dorado. Follow the trails around the lagoon as your guide explains the traditions of gold offerings, the origins of the famous myth and the cultural significance of this Andean landmark. Along the way, you'll take in the fresh mountain air and the surrounding natural scenery.

After travelling through the Andean countryside, continue to the Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá, an underground monument carved into a former salt mine. Walk through illuminated passageways, see large-scale salt sculptures and visit vast chambers that showcase a blend of geology, architecture and spirituality. As you explore the site, you'll learn how the salt caverns were transformed into one of Colombia's most remarkable attractions.
