About this plan

Riding an electric scooter through La Candelaria is one of the most original ways to explore Bogota's historic center. The tour mixes riding across cobblestone streets with stops at the most iconic spots in the city's oldest neighborhood.

The adventure starts with a coffee experience at a local cafe. You taste Colombian coffee and learn about how it grows. After 20 minutes, you hop on the scooter and roll over to the Plazoleta del Chorro de Quevedo, the spot where Bogota was founded.

From there you pass Plaza de Bolivar, Avenida Septima with the Jorge Eliecer Gaitan mural, Parque Santander, and the front of the National Museum. The last stop is Parque de los Periodistas Gabriel Garcia Marquez, with open views of the mountains that ring the city. The full ride lasts two hours and ends back at the starting point.
