Margarita Moreno

Hola Hola! Thanks for allowing me to show you my country. I'm from Bogota, and I'm a travel lover. I have been exploring my country and discovering new and exciting places and lovely people to share all this beautiful collection of experiences with my travelers.

I have traveled along the whole country, From the northern point in the la Guarija Region to the Southern end in the Amazonas, and now I'm pretty sure to be the person who can give you all the information you could need to visit the Encanto country.

Here we will be waiting for you to show you how friendly the Colombian people are and guide you in one of the best experiences of your life.

How did you get involved in travel?

"The first book I read was a touristic guide; all I did was dream about discovering my country and the world from then on. So I did it!
And to make this dream come true, I studied for a bachelor's degree in hospitality and tourism and some certificate programs in history and cultural heritage. "

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"It was in the coffee region, the magnificence of the palm trees in the middle of the foggy forest. The colorful towns, one of them whit their magic, allow everybody to connect with the Colombian traditions and nature.

Coffee Finca - Hiking - Explore Salento

It's fitting that Salento, one of the most beautiful colonial towns in Colombia, is surrounded by the Valle de Cocora (Cocora Valley), which happens to be one of the most beautiful valleys in Colombia. This fertile region, denoted by rolling green hills, abounds with various coffee estates that...

Medellín City Tour

The city of Medellín, located in central Colombia's Antioquia region, is a true global success story. Once plagued by cartel violence, over the past 20 years it has turned itself around to become a model of safety, boasting a mass-transit system second to none. This six-hour tour begins in...

Bogotá City Tour

Bogotá is one of Latin America's most interesting and historic capital cities. At one time it was the seat of government for the new South American republic after independence from Spain. Believe it or not, many historic landmarks from those independence years still stand in Bogotá even now. A...

Zipaquirá & Nemecón Salt Mines Day-Trip

A mere 50 minutes north of Bogotá lies the town of Zipaquirá, which became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007. While certainly a charming colonial town, Zipaquirá is a must-visit Colombian destination for one single landmark: the Salt Cathedral, located just outside of town. This is indeed a...

Guatapé Day Trip

The town of Guatapé is one of the crown jewels of central Colombia's Antioquia region. There are a few reasons for this, not the least of which is El Peñol, a 7,000-foot (2,135-meter) granite rock that rises out of the ground like a giant silver bullet. A private eight-hour tour of the town...

Cartagena City Tour

Cartagena, abounding as it is with cobbled streets lined by colonial homes with bougainvilia-draped balconies, is a city that begs to be explored on foot. And a guided walking tour of the UNESCO World Heritage walled city (Old Town) is the perfect way to do this. It's a brisk 2.5-hour tour that...

Margarita was creative and interactive when designing a trip for me and my family. I found her responsive to my question, prior to my trip, and especially during my trip when I had questions I felt needed fast answers. She was pleasant, friendly, and amenable. I appreciated how flexible and johnny-on-the-spot she was when I decided to change plans at the last minute. I would highly recommend KimKim and Margarita

Our trip to Colombia was incredible!!! Our itinerary included Medellin, Pereira and Cartagena. Right from the get go Margarita was attentive, available to answer my questions quickly and listened carefully to the needs I communicated for our trip. She crafted an amazing itinerary for my son (6 years old) and I , which ended up including all of the highlights I asked for plus some extra kid-friendly activities she took initiative to recommend (Explora Park in Medellin and Coconut Beard Pirate Game in Cartagena). My son has Autism and this was our first adventure abroad together so I wanted to ensure we had a solid plan and support while traveling. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or supportive team! Not only was the planning seamless (KimKim software is incredibly user friendly and centralizes every detail you need), but while we were traveling we could communicate directly with Margarita and our local guides via WhatsApp with any questions and concerns. This was a nice bonus for me traveling solo with my son, knowing I had others to depend on. I requested smaller boutique style hotels with more of a local feel for accommodation. Loved each one (Hotel Quinta Ladera, Hotel Sazagua, Hotel Casa Don Luis by Faranda). The pace of our trip was perfect, with a good balance of excursions and downtime, flights that were at reasonable hours (with seats in the front of the plane!), safe drivers, and dependable flexible guides. We had Manuela in Medellin, Guillermo in Pereira and Carlos in Cartagena, all of whom were incredible with my son always playful, attentive and patient. The level of attentiveness of this tour company is above and beyond. They check in with you, they are available when you need something and take the time to add personal touches. Like nothing I’ve ever experienced traveling in the past. Definitely amazing value and service for the price point. Will definitely use Kim Kim in the future and highly recommend it - so grateful!
