Great tour of historical Cartagena
What a great tour this was as Nancy, our guide, was wonderful. She was so engaging and full of information and she had a great sense of humor. We were a small group so it felt like a private tour!!! It was a hot day but our bus was air conditioned so comfortable. Traffic here is ‘loco’ but the driver was an expert so it all worked out!!! Loved the views from the convent and the Castillo and all the history behind these sights!! Very worthwhile tour and I highly recommend it!!!!

We had a wonderful tour...
We had a wonderful tour with Carlos as our guide. He was very informative and showed us many amazing different parts of Cartagena. He also catered our tour to our children, ages 10 and 12, and was very kind and helpful. I highly recommend this tour as a way to visit the old fortress and walled town in Cartagena.

Great tour!
Excellent guide and driver, they helped us with a private tour around the sites we were most interested in seeing, even stopping at a grocery store so we could buy Colombian coffee.

Experience with a lot of history and knowledge! We appreciate the walking with Sr Amaury who explained all the tour and steps. We truly recommend.

Perfect excursion
The tour would have been 5 hours. We spend less than 30 minutes at the walled city instead of 2 hours. The local Colombian coffee is very good, so are the papaya, pineapple and mango. Instead of corn bread with egg, we have fruit and took some back to the cruise ship. Out guide Bernie was very accommodating. The 11 seater van is great for just 5 of us for the private tour. The van A/C was great as the weather got hotter each day as we crossed the Panama Canal. The tour is well worth it.

Beautiful Cartegena
Be well prepared for the heat and humidity. Tell your guide if you are a photographer they will ensure you don't miss great shots. Ensuring you reach best locations to do this. At least our did this.

Fabian was an excellent tour guide and was very knowledgeable about the the city's history. The tour really touches on so many things, it's a great way to learn a lot about the city. Fabian regularly showed us the best views and best photo locations and offered to take pictures for our group.

Amazing walking city tour Cartagena
I booked a walking city tour and I am so glad I did. Our tour guide Legaxy was amazing. His English is perfect and made it super interesting and fun. My almost 80 yr old mother was part of the group and she was the only one who didn't know English, and Legaxy translated everything for her and was so kind and sweet towards her, highly appreciated. He gave us all kinds of recommendations for our trip. He is 5 🌟
