- 1As a proof of Colombian joyful and happy spirit: there is Tejo. A fun sport of humble origins made to share and laugh with your fellows. If you want to be part of this unparalleled experience of Colombianness, join us in this private tour and enjoy a thrilling night. Tejo is the Colombian national sport of throwing rocks at small explosives. It was brought from the countryside to the city. The word Tejo means steel projectile. Tejo or Turmequé is a Colombian game and traditional sport of throwing metal discs to a target that explodes when hit. The fun of this – as with other activities – is doing it in good company. Immerse yourself and explore the Colombian roots in the game, and beer, and let us be part of it.

- TD-OnTheRoad0 contributionsGreat intro to Bogotá and ColumbiaThe tour was excellent. Luis was a great guide. Very knowledge and he paced the tour just right. Also, the level of informal was great. I feel I learned quite a lot about Columbia from a history and culture perspective.Written 27 October 2024
- guavasorbet0 contributionsBreathtaking, in more ways than one!We did the Sumapaz Páramo hike with Gran Colombia who were able to accommodate our needs on relatively short notice. Liz was our guide and Carlos our driver; they were both terrific. It was a very challenging hike, with the altitude going up and slippery loose rocks and narrow paths going down but it was worth it to be able to take in such an enchanting environment. Even if you have some light rain and fog like we did, the frailejones are a sight to behold! Bring warm layers (including rain gear and waterproof hiking boots) and water/snacks. Hiking poles were provided which came in handy. If you are prone to motion sickness, the roads to the páramo are quite curvy so just something to keep in mind. While it sounds like this hike and páramo don't get quite as much attention from visitors as other attractions, if you have some time while in Bogotá and love the outdoors, contact Gran Colombia and go for it!Written 26 October 2024
- maureenehess0 contributionsWonderful morning as hometown touristsWonderful tour for our family. Arrangements were made via what’s app which I find so easy. The company walked me through what the day would be like and explained any points of confusion. We were assigned a wonderful wonderful guide, I hope to request him next time we book! We opted for monseratte and candelaria and saved the museums for another day and it was a god amount of time for our youngest child. Pick up in the morning was prompt and polite, we appreciated the clean vehicle and how easy transit was.Written 26 October 2024

It was pretty cool. Tejo is such a unique experience and we loved it. I wouldn’t call it a beer tour though lol they just crack open a beer or two for ya. Seemed like our guide kinda wanted to get on with his night and get rid of us, but we enjoyed our time with him!

We had a great time with Luis and Miguelito. Luis made it competitive and fun while interacting with locals at the Tejo Club. Miguelito was our driver and got us to our stops safely. Ask for Luis if you want some competition. We now want to build a Tejo Field in our backyard.

We really enjoyed our night of Tejo! Daniel explained the game, the scoring and was great to spend the evening with. We had PLENTY to drink and learned how to play the game. We all had several explosions and lots of good conversation. I would recommend this to anyone looking to get an introduction to Tejo.

Cristian took my girlfriend and I to a traditional tejo bar in Bogota and it was a great time. We didn’t know anything about tejo before hand but Cristian taught us how to play and the background of the game. He also taught us some history about the area. The bar we went to was very authentic and the locals were extremely welcoming and friendly. Cristian speaks great English and was more than happy to translate for us when we spoke to some of the locals there. This was a very unique experience and it was the highlite of our trip!

Tejo was a lot of fun. Laurena did a great job of explaining the game while making sure everyone had fun! Would highly recommend having her as a guide and booking the tejo tour.

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Colombia. We had so much fun! This is a great way to spend an evening. Plan to drink a lot of beer! Exploding targets, beer, much laughter. We appreciated the pickup from our hotel, and the return at the end of the evening.
Luis was our guide, Cesar our driver. We also hired Luis for the Graffiti Tour the next day, in La Canderia. He is very knowledgeable, speaks English (a must for us), and a kind soul. Highly recommend trying to get Luis for any of the Gran Colombia Tours.
