Overview
Many travelers arrive in Colombia with an image marked by series and movies that portray the country as a violent and convulsive place. But what is really behind this Hollywood narrative? This tour invites you to understand Colombia's recent history from a local, human and reflective perspective.
During the tour we will explore more than seven decades of political and social history, understanding the origin of the armed conflict, its consequences and the processes of resistance and peace building that have marked the country. We will walk through the historic center of Bogota visiting key places such as Santander Park, the Jorge Eliécer Gaitán Memorial, Carrera Séptima, Plaza de Bolívar, the Palace of Justice and Plaza Núñez.
We will also visit the exhibition El Testigo, a powerful visual display that gives voice to the victims and the collective memory of the country.
This tour is ideal for travelers interested in the history, politics and social reality of Colombia, who are looking for a deep, educational and different experience to understand the past and present of Bogota.
