If you need transport from Bogotá, meals and all the logistics for the day, these partner agencies sell Santuario Chiquito's hikes, experiences and events as a complete package.
Santuario Chiquito's direct rate, on the other hand, covers only the conservation contribution and local guiding. They are two different ways to do the same hike, not two prices for the same service. If you already know how to get here on your own, book directly with us.

If the agency brings its own professional tour guide, already trained on the reserve's routes, only the local guide is charged. The guide scheme scales with the group, with no fixed cap on group size. High-mountain traverses to the snow-capped peaks and night, sunrise or sunset routes have a different guide rate (fixed or with a surcharge). Commissions and billing terms for large groups or special logistics are agreed directly with the partnerships team — write to us on WhatsApp or by email.
