The hosts speak fluent...
The hosts speak fluent english, comes with complimentary drinks, and the dancing is very beginner friendly. I have no dancing experience and the instructor gave examples, lots of practice, and it was fun learning 3 different styles of dance. I would highly recommend for a good time & good laugh!

Book with Legaxy!
This walking tour is great for visitors who want to get to know the history of Cartagena. Legaxy was a fantastic guide who really knows his stuff when it comes to this beautiful city - he even has some fun tidbits for kids if you’re traveling with children. This one’s a no brainer, if you want to learn about Cartagena - book this tour!

Great experience CTG to Bocagrande
Great communication and reasonable pricing made this a wonderful experience! We received a message from Samaria Tours the day before our flight letting us know when and how they would be in touch. On our travel day, Gloria sent a highly detailed message confirming our reservation, providing our transportation coordinator’s name, and instructions of how to find her at the airport. Our friendly coordinator Yulieth welcomed us and waited with us for our driver to arrive. We felt very well taken care of and had no stress about getting to our hotel.

Incredible Food Tour with an Amazing Guide!
Our walking street food tour was one of the highlights of our trip! Our guide, Alvaro, was incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate about sharing the culture and history behind the local food. Every stop offered something unique, and the variety was outstanding.
We sampled everything from a delicious shrimp cocktail served with a plantain chip, to flavorful soup, a cheese arepa, sweet local treats, and what was described as the best bread in the world—and it definitely lived up to the hype! We also enjoyed tasting three different types of coffee and learning about their significance and preparation. The tour ended perfectly with a selection of fresh local fruits.
The food was plentiful, authentic, and gave us the opportunity to try a little bit of everything. If you’re looking for a great way to experience the local culture through food, I highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Alvaro, for such a memorable experience!

Fantastic tour with Liz!
This was an amazing tour! Liz was so great. She was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Cartagena, where she was born and raised. The tour was very well organized and she was able to give so much information and answer any questions we had. Her English was also great, so we were able to understand her very well. Even though the city is very hot, and it was an especially humid day, she always made sure we were in the shade when we could be. She also had many tips on places to go and what to buy. This was a fantastic way to spend 2.5 hours on our first full day in Cartagena!

Fabulous Tour & Guide
Amazing tour. Very thorough. Our guide clearly told the history of the fortress & Getsemani neighborhood and all the areas we walked thru and gave us suggestions for other places to visit & food to try. Very open & interested in sharing his knowledge of Cartagena. Fabulous guide!

Excellente
Had such an amazing time at this sip and paint class in Colombia! The atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and super relaxing. The instructor made everything easy to follow, even if you’re not the most artistic person. I loved how we could just unwind, enjoy our drinks, and get creative without any pressure. The music, the vibes, and the whole experience were just perfect. Definitely one of the highlights of my triphighly recommend to anyone looking for something fun and different to do!

Great tour! Highly recommend
It was an excellent tour. Our guide was very informative and up beat. She gave us the history of how the foods and the food stops came to be. We got to sample a good variety of different foods. We definitely didn’t go hungry.
Only thing that would be nice and isn’t on this tour is a coffee/chocolate stop. As it is I highly recommend this tour. We enjoyed it.

Perfect Unique Experience
This was the perfect bizarre/unique experience that my boyfriend and I were looking for. Our guide, Milton gave us good tips and explained how the process would work beforehand. After we got off the bus, we climbed a ladder and waited in a small line to get into the mud volcano. The volcano fits about 15 people. When you’re in the volcano, it feels like you are floating. At the top of the volcano, there are some kind locals who will take pics of you while you are in the volcano, give massages, and help you in and out. Then, you can get into a nearby lake and fully rinse off. Some other locals down there will help. After getting rinsed off, you can enjoy your arepa and drink before heading back. We had such a fun experience!
Some Caveats:
I probably would not take children under 14 because it may seem a bit overwhelming having random strangers touch them.
Bring cash to tip the locals and to buy other food or drinks. This is how they make their living so be respectful.
The steps getting up to the volcano are slippery and wide so be careful.

Perfect experience!
This was an excellent family experience! The crew kept checking in on us to refill our (delicious) drinks, and were helpful with our stroller. Our son was picked for the pirate fight, and the costumes/fireworks made it the highlight of his whole trip.
The same boat also offered a day trip to Tierra Bomba, which was a perfect pace for our young children as compared to other jam-packed itineraries. The owners and crew were thoughtful in shortening/extending timelines based on our interest in each activity, and shared stories to increase our understanding of the area and its history. They even offered antinausea medication when my husband felt seasick. We enjoyed the stories, care, and companionship from the crew members on board, and would highly recommend both the sunset cruise and the day trip for families. They were the highlights of our time in Cartagena.

Lovely experience
Great sunset cruise and beautiful views of Cartagena. The boat is big and clean and the staff was friendly and fun. 1 complimentary drink and light appetizers. The only negative was all the young women with their selfie sticks taking photos and videos of themselves the entire time and being very obnoxious about it, but that's the way of the world now.
