A 2-hour beginner graffiti workshop in Bogotá, with spray technique practice, a planned throwup 3D tag, and time at Ocio Gallery murals.

“I was very impressed both by the artist who led this workshop and by the gallery (OCIO) where it was hosted. The workshop started with a chance to explore the gallery, which is full of amazing prints by an array of Colombian artists. They also sell a line of printed clothing - really interesting work, and a chance to take home an exceptional souvenir. (If you don't take the workshop, you could still have a super visit to the gallery, which is close to the La Perseverancia Market and lots of eating options.)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 54 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $41

Private 90-minute salsa lessons in Bogotá tailored to your level, with merengue, bachata, and Colombian steps, plus night club practice.

“My husband and I (60+) were attending a relative's wedding in Bogota and wanted to be able to hold our own on the dance floor, so we booked a 90 minute salsa lesson. Our instructor Laura was wonderful -- patient and did a great job helping us with the basic steps of merengue and salsa (including the special steps of Colombian salsa). It was a little tricky for us finding the studio, but Laura was responsive and helpful. There's a great big mall across the street if you want to shop and pick up an Uber from there. Highly recommend and we had a great time on the dance floor!”
