The Hotel de la Opera is set in the historical district of La Candelaria. The hotel has 42 suites decorated with fine Italian-made furniture, central heating, Wi-Fi, cable TV, safe deposit boxes and all the comforts of the best five star hotel tradition of Bogota.
Thanks to the varied architecture that spans three centuries of urban history, the suites of the Hotel de la Opera satisfy the most sophisticated travelers' tastes. The hotel's historic buildings are just in front of the San Carlos Palace and include 28 suites decorated in vibrant with color - bold yellows on the walls, graced with giant wood armoires and arched entrances, are spread around the courtyards of the colonial and Republican era.
15 other suites in Deco style are located in the top floor of the adjacent building of the late 1940's, the highest point in the neighborhood of La Candelaria. Decorated with bespoken designed Italian furniture this latest addition offers views of the Plaza de Bolivar the domes of the Cathedral and the mountain of Monserrate.

The design concept evokes typical elements from the 1930's and 1940's Bogotanian Art Deco and a palette of warm tones. The notable materials used include Caqueta cedar wood and Uraba Chocoano Theca, Bogotanian stone for floor finishes and tiling, suspended ceiling plaster work, glass doors and blue and green Spanish vitreous glass tiles in the pool, making a remarkable contemporary and cozy space.
This area is built on two levels, exclusively dedicated to comfort and rest. On the first floor there is a heated pool, Jacuzzi, cardiovascular exercise zone, showers and dressing rooms. The second floor houses sauna, Turkish baths and massage zone.
Everything was amazing! The planning with Adventure Life went smoothly. The actual trip was fantastic! One of the best trips I have experienced. The cruise staff members were knowledgeable and attentive. I will be writing more about this on the blog!

The response from Adventure Life to my first inquiry was prompt and promising. I worked with Jamie Broeckel, Trip Planner, via text, email, and phone calls- always extremely responsive and thorough with information and explaining the process to arrange a private tour for me to Malaysia Borneo. Within about week, the booking was complete and I made decisions because of Jamie's great customer service , friendly manner, and overall competence on behalf of the company's travel expertise. Now I have an itinerary, additional Trip Planner Assistants, several links for vital information for traveling to Maylasia, etc. Still many details for Sept. trip, but now the heavy lifting is done and I can enjoy the rest of the anticipation and research!! Thanks Jamie- you are amazing!!!!

The trip was not only memorable for the amount of animals we saw but also for the people and accommodations at the two camps where we stayed. Our first guide, BK, was a wealth of information about the animals, landscape and down to the plants and what they were used for. Everyday out was a learning experience with him. All the people at the camps were gracious and the food was excellent.
Our second camp in the Okavanga was just as good as the first as far as the staff, accommodations, food and animals. After our experience at the first camp we amazed that the high quality remained the same. Our guide, G, made sure we were able to enjoy every experience including a rush through the bush to witness a cheetah and an ensuing hunt that he heard over his radio.
In both camps there were enough guides out that if they saw something the other guides were informed which helped in seeing as much as possible. It was also nice that the concessions were large enough that we did not have vehicles following each other throughout the day.
Normally there is always something in a trip of this length that we think could be improved upon but this is the rare case where we cannot think of anything. From the time we left the States to when we returned it was one of the most hassle free vacations we took.
Perhaps emphasizing the use of the laundry facilities at the camps would be useful because of the luggage restrictions would be the only thing I can think of as an improvement to future clients.
