Colombia’s capital city of Bogota is a bustling South American metropolis that’s a perfect blend of new and old.

The only way to experience it all is to check out Wotif’s fine offers on hotels in Bogota and split.

Getting Around Bogota

El Dorado International Airport (BOG) is 15km from the city centre, and it’s where flights to Bogota touch down. You can use the taxi services to get downtown, as well as anywhere else you need to go. There’s also the option of riding the Transmilenio and SITP rapid service to all corners of the city.

When You Land…

If you’re on one of the Bogota flights that lands as the roosters begin to crow, you’ll probably need a little pick-me-up. Find a seat at a café in the Chapinero district and order up cups of Arabica and Robusta. By the time you’re all hopped up on coffee crystals, the Colombian National Museum will be open. It’s a perfect place to spend the afternoon.

Are you arriving just as the sun is tucking itself in for the night? Do you feel like checking out the best in Bogota nightlife? Make your way to Zona Rosa de Bogota and try to keep up with the locals at the bumping nightclubs. As long as you have a few aguardientes (that’s a stout drink), you should do fine.

Live Like a Local

No matter what city or country you visit, the locals always seem to have the best time. Bogota is no different. The best way to blend in and interact with the townfolk is in Simon Bolivar Park, a massive green space and entertainment sports complex. You’ll find heaps of activities to take part in, from playing in a pick-up soccer game to paddle boating in the nearby lake.

This city is quickly becoming one of South America’s most happening places to be, which is why you should go soon. Check out our wonderful offers on cheap flights to Bogota today and skip town tomorrow.
