Semana Santa#
In 2027 it falls on 21 to 28 March. Processions in La Candelaria and up to Monserrate, Thursday and Friday holidays, and a city that empties toward the warm country. Bogotá itself is quiet and easy; the roads out are not.
What to do#
Monserrate and the day trips in the first half, while the sky holds. Museums and food in the afternoons from mid-month. The travel guide, the food guide.
Prices#
Moderate. Holy Week raises prices on the coast, not in Bogotá. Where to stay.
Pack#
Layers, a jacket, a small umbrella for the second half.
