Bogotá in June: Rain Easing, Holiday Mondays, and the Mid-Year School Break

June is Bogotá drying out: around 19°C, 8°C at night, showers fading through the month toward the July and August dry spell. Colombia stacks several holiday Mondays into June and schools break from mid-month, so Bogotanos leave town on long weekends and the city is quieter. Prices moderate.
