First time to Bogota and everything was a surprise after the other, from the larger than life avenues to luxury malls, great cuisine, spring-ish/chill mostly overcast weather, the north city is extremely wealthy and expensive in contrast from the south part and the "invaciones" (poor barrios). We encounters no safety issues whatsoever ...
For an adventure you will not soon forget. This city of over eight million people will transport you to extremes, from the extreme wealth in the north to the extreme poverty in the south. In between you will find a cosmopolitan combination of just about anything you might wish to find. Pay attention and stay long enough to understand that chaos ...

Bogota is a beautiful city full of contrast. The people where extremily nice and the activities are out of this world. I recomend going to "La Zona Roza". There you will find great restaurants, bars, pubs, shopping malls, food festivals, night clubs, antique shops... Best part is that you can stay out and party till 5 am non stop. Other ...

an amazing city!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 09/20/07
We were in Bogota in June and had a great time. Our lodging was in the Nicolas Federer neighborhood and we enjoyed walking to the Galerias across the street. The Colombians are very friendly and nice. I liked hanging out and eating in Carullah (the Whold Foods Market of Colombia). Salto De La Angel was great with fantastic music and beautiful ...

Had a great time....
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 09/11/07
People are friendly, very attractive women and the Transmilenio was convenient. Monserrate was nice and the Gold Museum was awsome. La Candelaria very scenic. Northen Bogota was plenty of fancy shopping centers & boutiques. Just Be cautious of your surroundings and belongings, a lot of pickpockets & thieves. What was horrendous was Bogota traffic and in general everyone drives like homicidal maniacs. there is no respect for pedestrians.

Bogota is fun!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 04/08/07
I loved "El Salto Del Angel", I heard of the place several times, so I wanted to visit it. I had so much fun, people are very friendly, drinks are great! The selection of music is up to European island Ibiza! Colombian women are beautiful and men are gorgeus. My friends and I had a great time. No safety problems, and by the way, the food ...

An amazing city and country
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 04/04/07
Bogota is definetely the best place I have ever been to. I have lived in many places in the USA and have traveled to different countries in South America- Nothing beats Colombia. The people there are awesome, nice, beautiful, and full of life. The atmosphere beats that of any city I've been to. Everyone loves life and there is so much to do. ...
