Discover the talent of the best Bogota artists
Like most great metropolis, Bogotá has inspired generations of great artists that have imprinted in their paintings, writings, and sculptures the bohemian spirit of the streets. Merging the legacy of artists from the 20th century with the new and youthful spirit of emerging talents, the San Felipe neighborhood became known as Bogotá´s Art District.
Residential, quiet, with mid-twentieth century facades, the San Felipe neighborhood holds a total of 15 art institutes and galleries that comprise the burgeoning art scene of Bogotá. National and International artists show their works and we are allowed to reflect on how the art and culture of the country are developing. It has been so successful that in 2018 The New York Times reported on the neighborhood increased its visibility.
Tour the neighborhood from the comfort of your own private transport available to you at all times. According to your interests, a professional bilingual guide who is an art expert leads you to the best galleries. Urban, modern, contemporary art, are just some of the options for you to enjoy here in “Distrito de Arte”.
Depending on availability and the time of year, our tour offers you the possibility to interact with artists, gallery directors and curators as well as enjoy “The night of San Felipe”, a night when all galleries and institutes in the neighborhood open their doors until midnight to promote the up and coming artists. A night for art.

"By the end of the week, I felt I'd made a new friend and was leaving a city I had fallen in love with. If and when we get to go back, I'll be asking Daniel to take us to more sites and share more of his favorite places with us. I can't adequately express how much his time and dedication to our trip meant to me. Absolutely wonderful tour guide."
