Insider Tips

  • Stay in Chapinero or La Candelaria — safer and more interesting than the business district
  • Take the funicular up Monserrate at sunrise for the best city panorama
  • Sundays the city closes major roads for Ciclovía — rent a bike and join the locals
  • Bogotá is at 2,640m; pace yourself the first day and drink water constantly
