Always enjoy going to the volcano
It was a beautiful day, and the people were extremely nice, they provided a nice lunch, and we went to a private beach. the volcano is extremely fun but understand you're not in there all day you get to go in there for 15 to 20 minutes and it's not that large but that's never bothered me the times I've gone the things that are frustrating there and it has nothing to do with the tour guide is that when you get in as people that want to massage you and then when you go to the Lagoon to wash off the ladies there are extremely rude if you don't want this services but just ignore that and enjoy the time it's a unique experience

Excellent way to see the highlights!
Cartagena is a lot larger than you think it is and a number of the things you want to see are pretty spread out. This tour gave us the highlights of pretty much everything and got us back to the ship on time even though we had a really tight schedule because of the length of time our ship was in port. Benny was the lead guide but the driver and our other guy were all fantastic. Great to have air conditioning too! Cartagena is hot. So, even though those open cars look like fun, we saw people sweating in those. Take this door instead. You will enjoy it!

Best way to see the Walled City!
Definitely worth the time and money. Dani was an excellent guide who kept things fun and casual. As a fan of classic cars, I was glad to finally ride in one and felt very safe the whole time. The photoshoot was a huge plus! We recommended it to another couple we met that night!

Andres was an absolute gem! Very knowledgeable and knew how to answer every question.
We tried many different snacks and drinks - arepas, fried plantain, various sweets and breads - and left quite full. Our guide was constantly checking in to make sure we weren’t too full or if we wanted anything more. Thanks for a memorable experience!

Full on experience.
This is the excursion you want if you want the full fun experience. The staff is awesome, friendly, and attentive. The Captain always had a smile on his face showing you he loves his job. He was friendly and very easy on the eyes. 😉 I would definitely do this again.

A perfect half day tour
We had a very pleasant and informative half day tour with Nico our tour guide and Kevin our driver. We were picked up at the cruise port exit and Nico had a sign with our name making it easy to find him. Nico was very passionate and knowledgeable about Cartagena and was a pleasure to spend the day with. The tour had a perfect pace for us and we were able to see everything we hoped to see and do a bit of shopping & stop to try empanadas. Kevin our driver did an excellent job of navigating the crowded narrow streets and was quick to pick us up after viewing various attractions. They did a great job of showing us a good mix of Cartagena with our short time frame. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Mud Baths and Good Food!
This was an extremely memorable day for my mother and I. Our guide stayed with us the entire day and gave a clear run down on what to expect for day. From how much to tip the locals who were working the volcano ,even being a buffer to make sure we weren’t being overcharged, to what lunch and the pool day(dangerous beach conditions)would consist of. She was a gem and made a huge impact on how great the day went. This is such a great deal, make sure you book!

Great way to see the walled city
This was a great way to see the walled city. Our guide Jose and his assistant Herman were great. Jose is very knowledgeable and enjoyed telling us the history of Cartagena. Simply walking around on your own does not give you any understanding of when things were built or why. Having Jose as a guide provided us with so much of Cartagena’s rich history. They did a great job of maneuvering the streets and keeping us safe.

Good insider view of the Bazurto Market
This tour provides a good insider's look at everyday life for those living in Cartagena. While we walked through the market with our guide, he described the various sections, took us to many vendors to have them demonstrate or show us their trade, and provided us with historical background and insights of the market. Our guide's english was good and he did a great job of entertaining our questions and focusing our tour on our interests.
Similar to some other busy markets we have visited, our senses were filled with sights, sounds, and smells.

This tour covers many of...
This tour covers many of the main sights in Barranquilla and Puerto Colombia and is best if you’re looking for easy sightseeing and good photo stops. The highlights included the Puerto Colombia pier, the beach, a historic castle, the Window Tower, the Shakira and Sofía Vergara statues, the Barranquilla letters, and other city landmarks that made for great photos.
For Vegetarians the breakfast was a simple cheesy empanada, which was good but limited to one. Lunch was excellent though, and the women who worked there were very nice.
Javier was the highlight of the tour. He was attentive, helpful, and always willing to assist or look things up when needed. Overall, it’s a relaxed tour with great photos and content and a great guide.

Amazing Tour and Very Friendly and attentive guide
Amazing Tour. The guide is very friendly and really interesting. I was asked which language to use for the tour and I can mostly understand Spanish so the tour was in Spanish and I understood most of it. The guide even made conversation with me in my native language (French) and I really appreciated it. The sights are amazing, the driver is great and everything was on time and well planned. Definitely recommend. Gracias por la visita.

Great Tour!
I had an excellent experience on this tour! Both the guide and the driver were incredibly helpful throughout the day. The guide, in particular, was extremely knowledgeable about the area and went above and beyond to help us get the best prices on everything.
The beach accommodations were perfect — we had comfortable lounge chairs and umbrellas waiting for us, which made the day that much more relaxing. Lunch was absolutely delicious, and everything was well-organized from start to finish.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a smooth, enjoyable, and memorable experience!
