What You Will Do
On our Tour you will be able to see directly the only underground cathedral in the world located in Colombia, built 180m underground, it is a mega structure that deserves to be among the most impressive in our country and on the planet.
The entire structure of this cathedral is carved from salt from the largest salt rock deposit in the world. During the tour there are several stations where you will see the interpretation of the Christian way of the cross, in addition to the central dome where Eucharists are held, intervened by an amazing artistic work of sculpture and lighting, and also natural structures typical of salt deposits, a set of elements that will leave you breathless.
Once you finish the tour of the salt mine, the town of Zipaquirá awaits us to visit its central square, some of its beautiful colonial-looking streets where we will find the ideal place to enjoy a typical lunch.

The tour guide and drive were outstanding. Very knowledgeable and made it a great experience. Would recommend to others.
Great experience for anyone who wants to explore something outside of Bogotá. Excellent organization and a very informative tour

This tour is perfect for anyone who would rather leave the driving on the streets of Bogotá to a professional like William. We felt very comfortable on the approximately 1.5-hour drive and were able to enjoy the view from the window. The communication between our guide, Camilo, and William was also excellent, and we could rely on their punctuality and safety. First, we explored the most important part of Zipaquira, the Plaza de la Independencia. As he had done the day before on another tour, Camilo impressed us with his knowledge of english and spanish. Afterwards, we went to the Catedral de Salt, where, thanks to our private tour, we had enough time to explore all the individual stops, and Camilo was able to tell us a lot of interesting facts about everything. For lunch, we were able to enjoy the hospitality and delicious food of Zipaquira at a local restaurant. And on the return trip, Camilo and William were never too tired to tell us about Colombian customs and traditions. Thank you so much for this fantastic tour and the excellent communication between the guide, driver, agency, and us! We'll be back!
