What are people saying about Cartagena

Sasha_S, Aug 2026

Great way to experience Cartagena!

I really enjoyed my private walking tour with Dimas. He was friendly, knowledgeable and made the history and culture of Cartagena interesting throughout the tour. We explored the Walled City and Getsemaní, and he gave great insight into the different places we visited while also giving me time to enjoy the scenery and take photos. As a solo traveler, I felt comfortable throughout the experience and appreciated having someone local show me around the city. Dimas was also very patient and easy to talk to. Definitely a great introduction to Cartagena and I would recommend the tour!

Street Food Tour in Cartagena

victoria_b, Aug 2026

Fab food tour, book it!

We had a great time on the food tour with Robert today! Totally recommend. We ate great food at spots we’d never have the courage to go to alone, and learnt tonnes about the city itself. Robert was a fab guide, really calm and knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone arriving in Cartagena. Oh, and don’t eat any lunch! You won’t need it!

San Basilio de Palenque History Tour

Jessica_M, Aug 2026

Family Trip

The tour was memorable! Victor and his family were warm and welcoming! He was very informative and engaging for both adults and children. We learned so much about Palenque and its history. While it was very hot, we were able to sit and travel for portions of the tour on the air conditioned bus. The activities we engaged in during the tour were both exciting and inclusive. Highly recommend!

Cartagena Urban Party Boat to Cholón: 5 Stops with Lunch & Drinks

Arielle_P, Aug 2026

10/10 Would Recommend

Kevin and his crew are very knowledgeable, accommodating, and are going to make sure you have a great time. I even had an incident on one of the islands and got my phone stuck someplace. He made sure the problem was resolved and solved for me and made sure I didn’t have to pay for a whole new phone. The different stops were nice and informative. The last stop is most definitely a time, plus you get to meet some amazing people.

Cartagena 5 Island Hop Tour: Lunch, Snorkel, Beach Clubs, & More

Nicolas_R, Aug 2026

Great experience!

The experience was really good. This was the first time in Cartagena for me and my 6 friends. Deli and the rest of the team treated us really well. They took us to a really private area where we were not annoyed by any vendors, which was something we didn’t want. They were also very accommodating with everything we needed. The lunch was really good and the snorkeling part was super fun. I’d highly recommend this tour, especially if you’re looking for a more relaxing experience.

Rosario Islands and Playa Blanca Tour with Snorkeling or Aquarium

Makiyah_H, Jul 2026

Very fun but scary at...

Very fun but scary at times. If you have a faint stomach or not good with motion, then this may not be for you. But for the people who like thrill and love a good time it’s worth it. Also be strong enough to jump on & off the boat. Once u attempt to get on or off the boat it still moves so u have to be careful or u will be in the ocean.

Cartagena's Rosario Islands 5-Site Boat Tour with Lunch & Snorkel

Anibert_P, Jul 2026

Relaxing Island Experience

I loved that we got to have our own cabana at each stop on the different islands. It made the experience feel more comfortable and relaxing. One of the stops was especially nice because vendors weren’t allowed in the cabana area, so we could truly relax without being bothered. It was the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

Cartagena Jet Ski Adventure with Optional Drone Video

James_M, Jul 2026

First class experience

Jose and his team are a first class experience. Dont waste time and money with any other jet ski company in Cartagena. Jose is a local who owns the company. He’s honest, trustworthy, and fair. We met at the hotel and he had a employee escort us to the beach and jet skis. We were given a quick safety course before starting. Highly recommend for anyone looking to jet ski.

Tour De Palenque, Road to Emancipation.

Desiree_V, Jul 2026

The tour company...

The tour company communicated with me on the morning of the tour and kept me posted on my pickup time. The trip to Palenque was smooth and our guide, Romeo, was knowledgeable and funny. We met local guides in Palenque who were also were kind with their time and sharing of information. The dance show with the kids was really cool and learning about the traditional medicine approaches. The food was delicious too. Overall, a great trip and worth supporting the local community!

Cartagena ATV Tour

Cory_C, Jul 2026

Amazing experience!

This excursion was a lot of fun! Be prepared to get dirty! Wear clothes and sneakers you don’t mind getting dirty or wet. Also, bring something to cover your head and face. I had two bandannas which worked out perfectly. I was wearing sun glasses but would also recommend Google because it’s a lot of dirty. The lunch was amazing!!! If you want the seafood option, bring 130,000 Colombian pesos ($40 US Dollars). The lunch provided was good but the seafood option was even better! The beach views were amazing as well.

Excursion to the Rosario Islands with Lunch and Snorkeling

Allison_S, Jun 2026

Beautiful sailing with attentive crew

Wonderful sailing and attentive crew! Sailed to two anchor points to swim/snorkel. Snorkel gear is provided free of charge just requires an ID hold for collateral. Three lunch options: seafood, chicken or vegetarian all with rice, salad and fruit Drinks were very well priced and tasted good. They only accept card or tap and pay on board. Clean bathrooms! Do keep in mind they do not stop and go ashore anywhere this is strictly a sailing trip. We were happy with this as it allows for a much for relaxing slower paced day
