Villa de Leyva Tour

A journey back in time to colonial Colombia

Full day

160 km from Bogotá

Villa de Leyva seems frozen in the 16th century. Declared a National Monument, this town preserves one of the largest squares in the Americas — cobblestoned and surrounded by white-façade colonial houses that give it a charm unique in all of Colombia.

Beyond its architectural beauty, the region surprises with its nearby attractions: fossils millions of years old, vineyards producing high-altitude wine, the La Candelaria desert and traditional pottery workshops. It's a destination that combines history, nature and gastronomy in a single trip.

Because of the distance, we offer it as a full-day trip or with an overnight option, always with comfortable private transport from Bogotá and a guide who will help you make the most of every corner of this Boyacá treasure.
