So glad I took this trip in the afternoon walking through the town..seeing important buildings, getting a brief history of the town and some important events, trying native fruits, coffee and seeing the beautiful ppl of Colombia. I would highly recommend this trip.
Viator robs its customers

The most memo part part of this trip was that I paid for a free trip and when I notified via tour of my objection they told me that I could go pound sand so even though I was one of 30 people on a free trip they paid for through viator I was not refunded my money they are thieves and liars
Response from Host , May 2022
Hola Vicki!
As specified in the description of the tour and on "what to expect", the amount you paid us is for the tips for our guides, it is crystal clear there, the tour is free but works on tips like in every other free tour around the globe. In any case, I hope your travels continue to be safe and sound.
Kind regards,
Mario

La visita al mercado.
La única recomendación es que se debería abrir cada una de las frutas que muestran para que el turista la pueda ver, oler y probar cada una.
Aparte del pago del tour, cobran 10 dólares como propina.

Adquirí el tour caminata, sencillo y económico, Luis fue un excelente guía, nos encantó a todos el tour. Todo bien, casi 3 horas caminando y conociendo la historia de la candelaria. Pero al final creo todos nos llevamos una sorpresa cuando nos pidió una propina, diciendo que lo regular eran 10 dólares, monto que tuve que dar. Jamás en todos los tours que he adquirido en otros países me han pedido “propina” extra aparte de lo pagado x el tour. Eso realmente hizo que mi visita no fuera del todo bien porque no conté con ese gasto extra ese día.
Response from Host , May 2022
Hola Yackeline,
Gracias por realizar el tour con nosotros, me alegra saber que disfrutaste la extensión del tour, las paradas y la historia de Bogotá. El tour funciona a base de propinas así que el monto que pagaste por la plataforma son las propinas por adelantado de nuestros guías, en la sección de información antes de reservar está explicado, de todas maneras entiendo que hubo una confusión al respecto y pagaste una propina adicional a Luis, debido a esto procedí a reembolsar lo que pagaste por la plataforma por completo. Gracias por compartir tus comentarios sobre nuestro tour y ¡Te deseo más felices viajes en tu haber!
Saludos,
Mario
Nett aber unspektakulär

Nette Tour durch das Viertel. Der Guide hat interessante Aspekte geteilt.
Insgesamt aber eher unspektakulär und nur halb gut organisiert.
Response from Host , Apr 2022
Hola Kath, we are sorry you didn’t have the great experience you were expecting. Our guides try to arrange all the stops taking into account to ensure the proper functioning of the tours but sometimes there are external factors out of our control. Anyway, please let me arrange a full refund and compensation for you.
Have an excellent day and keep enjoying life.

El tour es adecuado para extranjeros. Muy superficial en historia y no se resaltan los sitios relevantes en el recorrido. No se cuenta con micrófonos para el guía se pierde la voz en muchos sitios por el ruido.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
