Prepare your travel documents for Bogot\u00e1<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step in planning a trip to Bogot\u00e1 is to check the necessary travel documents, as in some cases, it can take a while. You&#8217;ll see that the paperwork varies depending on your country, so it&#8217;s important to check the documentation depending on where you&#8217;re travelling from. Here are the details: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>If your nationality requires a visa to enter Colombia<\/strong>, you will have to apply for it through the Colombian embassies or consulates in your country, or filling an online form in. The process can take a couple of weeks, so we recommend you do it in advance. Some visa categories allow multiple entries and can be valid for up to one year, although the maximum stay generally allowed is 180 days per year, which can be divided into periods of up to 90 days per entry. The fee is \u20ac40 for Europeans and Cubans and \u20ac82 for all other nationalities. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Visa-free travellers: <\/strong>For citizens of many countries in Latin America, the European Union and some others, it is not necessary to obtain a visa for short tourist stays of up to 90 days. It is advisable to check the specific policy for each nationality, as in some cases, this stay can be extended up to 180 days while in the country. If this is the case, you will need to present a valid passport, a return ticket and in some cases, proof of financial solvency or a letter of invitation may be required.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure

During these months, the weather is more stable and rainfall is less frequent. However, <strong>this time also coincides with the high season<\/strong>, which means that prices are higher in accommodation and there are more tourists at the popular attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>July and August are also good months to travel, and it also coincides with the <strong>Bogota Carnival in August<\/strong>, which celebrates the city&#8217;s cultural diversity with music, dance and colourful parades. But if you&#8217;re travelling around this time, be sure to plan your trip to Bogota well in advance. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"aligncentre size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"31806\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-bogota\/attachment\/how-to-get-around-bogota\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-around-Bogota.jpeg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,683\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"how-to-get-around-Bogota\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-around-Bogota.jpeg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-around-Bogota.jpeg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-around-Bogota.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Bogot\u00e1\" class=\"wp-image-31806\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-around-Bogota.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-around-Bogota.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/how-to-get-around-Bogota.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-find-out-how-to-get-to-bogota\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Find-out-how-to-get-to-Bogota\"><\/span>3. Find out how to get to Bogot\u00e1<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As the capital of the country, Bogot\u00e1 is very well connected both nationally and internationally, and you can get there in different ways depending on where you&#8217;re travelling from. Here are all the options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>By plane<\/strong>: El Dorado International Airport is the main air access to Bogot\u00e1 and receives flights from major cities around the world. Airlines such as Avianca, LATAM, and American Airlines operate here.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>By car:<\/strong> Bogota has good national road connections.<strong> <\/strong>From nearby cities such as Medellin or Cali, you can access by the Medellin &#8211; Bogota Highway and the Troncal to the Caribbean Coast, respectively.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>By bus<\/strong>: Bogota&#8217;s Terminal de Transportes offers connections to numerous cities around the country. Companies such as Bolivariano and Copetran offer frequent services.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>On arrival at El Dorado International Airport, you have several options to get to the centre:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Taxi<\/strong>: this is the most direct and fastest way. Be sure to take an official taxi from the airport. The journey costs around 25,000 &#8211; 40,000 COP (6-10 USD) and takes about 20 minutes depending on the traffic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bus<\/strong>: you can take a TransMilenio service, which is efficient and inexpensive. You must first take a free shuttle to Portal Eldorado and from there connect to the main system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Public transport in Bogot\u00e1 includes TransMilenio, an efficient BRT-type articulated bus system that covers most of the city with fares of approximately COP2,500 per trip. In addition, taxis are a safe and convenient option, especially when accessed via apps such as Easy Taxi or Tappsi, or Uber. For bicycle enthusiasts, Bogot\u00e1 has an extensive network of bike lanes for the exclusive use of cyclists and pedestrians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter

Where and what to eat in Bogota?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bogota&#8217;s gastronomy is famous for its rich mix of indigenous and Spanish influences, resulting in a wide variety of hearty and comforting dishes. <strong>Typical ingredients include corn, potatoes, yucca, plantains, and various meats such as chicken, beef and pork<\/strong>. They are combined in traditional recipes adapted over the centuries. We ate really well in the city, so we&#8217;ve put together this list of some recommendations. But if you&#8217;re not a fan of trying new things, you&#8217;ll also find plenty of international restaurants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Ajiaco<\/strong>: a succulent chicken soup with three types of potato, corn and guasca grass.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tamal Bogotano<\/strong>: corn dough stuffed with meat, wrapped in banana leaves.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fritanga<\/strong>: a combination dish of fried meats with cassava and plantains.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Changua<\/strong>: milk soup with egg, ideal for breakfast.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sancocho de gallina<\/strong>: thick soup with chicken, corn, yucca and potato.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the dishes, you can&#8217;t miss the <strong>hot chocolate with cheese<\/strong>. It is a traditional drink that reflects Bogot\u00e1&#8217;s culinary fusion. This chocolate is served hot with a piece of cheese that melts inside, offering a unique experience that warms the soul, especially on cold days in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"31813\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-bogota\/attachment\/piblic-transport-in-bogota\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/piblic-transport-in-Bogota.jpeg?fit=682%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"682,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"piblic-transport-in-Bogota\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/piblic-transport-in-Bogota.jpeg?fit=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/piblic-transport-in-Bogota.jpeg?fit=682%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"31813\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/piblic-transport-in-Bogota.jpeg?resize=682%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Bogot\u00e1\" class=\"wp-image-31813\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/piblic-transport-in-Bogota.jpeg?w=682&amp;ssl=1 682w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/piblic-transport-in-Bogota.jpeg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"31814\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/plan-trip-to-bogota\/attachment\/typical-dishes-in-bogota\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/typical-dishes-in-Bogota.jpeg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"683,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"typical-dishes-in-Bogota\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/typical-dishes-in-Bogota.jpeg?fit=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/typical-dishes-in-Bogota.jpeg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"31814\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/typical-dishes-in-Bogota.jpeg?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plan a trip to Bogot\u00e1\" class=\"wp-image-31814\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/typical-dishes-in-Bogota.jpeg?w=683&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/typical-dishes-in-Bogota.jpeg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-Choose-the-activities-you-want-to-do-in-Bogota\"><\/span>6.

Travelling in a group has its advantages, such as sharing expenses and always being accompanied, but it also presents challenges, such as coordinating and balancing everyone&#8217;s interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our recommendation <strong>for travelling with friends is that you create a collaborative itinerary with the Passporter App<\/strong>, so that you can organise your trip together, adjusting to the pace and interests of each member.

Tips for planning a trip to Bogot\u00e1<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The currency of Colombia is the Colombian peso (COP). <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Although many establishments accept credit cards, it&#8217;s a good idea to carry some cash, especially for small purchases or in rural areas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Colombia, the A and B plug type is used, with a voltage of 110V and a frequency of 60Hz. Be sure to bring an adaptor if your devices have different specifications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The official language is Spanish. Learning some basic Spanish phrases can improve your travel experience, especially outside of the big cities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It&#8217;s advisable to book flights and accommodation in advance, especially if you plan to visit during the peak tourist season (December-January and Easter).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find out about local festivals or special events that may coincide with your visit, such as Bogota&#8217;s Carnival.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you decide to hire a car, remember to always check local traffic regulations and road conditions, especially in rural areas. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As in any tourist destination, it&#8217;s wise to keep an eye on your belongings, especially in crowded places and on public transport. Avoid displaying valuables. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The climate in Colombia, the country of beauty, can vary significantly depending on region and altitude. Wear clothing suitable for warmer climates on the coast and cooler climates in the mountainous areas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Due to the city&#8217;s altitude, you may need a couple of days to acclimatise. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you want mobile internet during your stay we recommend getting a <a href=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/esim-internet-colombia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Holafly eSIM with unlimited data.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protect yourself against medical emergencies: travel insured. <a href=\"https:\/\/heymondo.es\/? utm_medium=Affiliate&amp;utm_source=PASSPORTER&amp;utm_campaign=PRINCIPAL&amp;cod_discount=PASSPORTER&amp;ag_campaign=that-see-in-belgium&amp; agency=TmQ6oVUdKUtb48XOjACNv0Y0djarI5oI6wsdlQr5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Choose a good travel insurance, such as Mondo. <\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9-how-to-prepare-what-to-see-on-your-trip-to-bogota\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9-How-to-prepare-what-to-see-on-your-trip-to-Bogota\"><\/span> 9.
