Tejo & Craft Beer

3 hoursMax 12Easy

Before you book this one

Live gunpowder charges and thrown metal weights. Over-18s, closed shoes, and stop throwing when you have had enough.

The same gunpowder-and-lead national sport, played in Bogotá’s craft-beer canchas where the beer is better and the explosions are just as loud.

What you do

  • A full lane and coaching until you land one
  • Colombian craft beer alongside
  • The Muisca origins of the game
  • A room full of locals who will absolutely beat you

As a private booking

A private lane for your group, food included, and transport both ways.

Practical notes for Bogotá

  • Altitude is real. At 2,640 m the air holds about a quarter less oxygen than at sea level. Give yourself 24–48 hours before anything strenuous, drink more water than feels necessary, and go easy on alcohol the first night. Altitude sickness is uncommon here but not unheard of.
  • It is colder than you expect. People pack for the Caribbean and shiver. Bogotá sits at 8–19 °C. Bring a warm layer and a rain shell — the weather changes within an hour and the rain is sideways.

Comuna 13 Graffitour, with guides from the barrio

The hillside barrio that went from the most feared address in Medellín to an open-air gallery, walked with someone who grew up in it. Outdoor escalators, murals with meanings, and the 2002 military operation told by the people it happened to.

Museo de Antioquia & Plaza Botero

Twenty-three fat bronze Boteros standing in a public square, and upstairs the best collection of Colombian art outside Bogotá. The museum also holds the country’s most uncomfortable modern painting, and we will show you it.

El Centro on Foot

The downtown most visitors are told to avoid, walked properly with a guide who can explain why it looks the way it does. Four hours through Parque Berrío, the Palacio, Botero’s square and the streets where the city actually works.
