    About this ebook

    Save time and energy, and find what's worthy in Bogota!

    Worthy Go itineraries are complete, step-by-step three-day itineraries to the very best places in Bogota. 

    See Bogota with an experienced travel writer by your side! 

    Whether this is your first time abroad or you've been traveling for years, Worthy Go itineraries have three goals: 

    • Make the most of your time, money, and energy while traveling

    • Help you go your own way but still provide some guidance

    • Curate the very best places to enjoy in the city

    The Bogota itinerary has been completely updated for 2020, and includes:

    • No affiliate links, no ads, no fluff, and no BS.

    • A complete three-day itinerary combining Bogota's well-known and off-the-beaten-path places. 

    • Detailed, step-by-step directions from one place to the next. 

    • Succinct descriptions, exact addresses, and GPS coordinates for every place.

    • First-hand knowledge and advice: where to stay, what to bring, safety and scam warnings, and more.

    • All the basics you'll need to know: do you tip? Can you drink the tap water? What SIM card should you get? What public transportation tickets do you need?

    • Advice on being a considerate, respectful, and sensitive traveler.

    Itineraries are carefully formatted to display well on any device, and links take you to Google Maps (internet connection required).

Bogotá hasn't seen the same kind of transformation Medellin saw in the post-Escobar decades, but then it also wasn't destroyed to the same degree.
