For fantastic views of the city take the funicular railway to the summit of Mount Monserrat. You will get great views on the way up to the top. The church there is nothing spectacular and the coke cola sponsorship is a bit crass. However the main reason for visiting is the panoramic views of the city which are really something special. A good tip arrive early we got there at 9.00 am and there were no queues and it was very quiet at the top. We got back down at 10.00 pm and there were already queues to get to the top. Start your day early and visit here first to beat the crowds, you won’t be disappointed.

I didn't truly comprehend how big Bogota was until I came up here. Definitely worth a visit. We went on a Friday morning and the lines weren't bad at all, although I can see this place getting quite crowded during he weekend.

Stunning!! Best to visit early in the day to avoid the queues although there was only a 20 minute wait on my visit. Taking the four minute cable car journey up to the top of Mount Monserrate allows you to then have some of the most fantastic views of Bogota. What a stunning city!! Spent around two hours here before then returning to the base using the funicular service which had a similar wait. Good value!!!

Mount Monserrate is one of the most beautiful places I visited while in Bogota. It is historic and a must-see. The scenery is fantastic and there are church services provided. Take your camera and get ready to take many pictures. A word of caution, the church is built at the top and there are a lot of uphill/stairs to climb, but it is well worth it. Tickets are very economical. Be prepared to wait as there are many visitors, but they do a great job to move the lines quickly.

There was a reasonable 20 people in line for tickets before joining a 100+ long queue for the funicular or chair lift. But with the funicular taking about 60 people (max80) the line moved quickly. At the top unless you are really into the 12 Stations of the Cross walk it is mostly about the views. These are excellent of Bogota city. The church is actually quite a simple affair, not ornate at all. Lots of shops selling the usual tourist items, a couple of restaurants, one very expensive, and quite colourful planting and trees.

This is a must for many Catholics so it's usually crowded to overcrowded. Many locals jog, walk or peddle up the hill so the trip takes longer than expected. The views and history make up for any inconvenience though.

We bought tickets online for 12:00pm Friday entrances. Purchasing ahead online was absolutely no advantage. When we arrived with our printed ticketed had to wait in line to exchange it for a real ticket with a QR-Code. After that we had to stand in line for 1.5 hours, half the time under hot sun. About 1:30 pm we entered the cable car for ascent. The view from on top is spectacular. The ticketing website STINKS. Purchasing tickets online ahead of time should be an advantage not the opposite.

The view is spectacular. If you have a time you might want to be there at night time. Besides the church, there are food and tourist stuff vendors as you walk past the church. If you need to go to the bathroom, you might need 1000 pesos cash. Los there is a path for the vía cruz. Overall, a great view of the city and a place to relax and meditate.

This is an important place to visit when visiting Bogota. We went up to the top by cable car and back down by funicular. A quiet church, painted inside in white, giving an angelic feeling. If you pay by credit card you can avoid the queue! Just ask one of the assistances at the entrance to the site. At the top there are several restaurants. Our timetable did not allow for a meal at a restaurant. The site gives an amazing view of the city.

Very enjoyable visit, must as a visit to Bogota. Bird's eye view of city and various economic zones. If new to Bogota, do be careful of altitude sickness, as one goes from 8000 feet in Bogota to 10000 feet on Mount Serrate in short time. Better to avoid visiting on Sunday morning, as locals attend church mass, unless you want to be part of the religious experience as well.
