Great Tour!

Cartagena: Private Walking Tour of the Walled City & Getsemaní

dedudi, Nov 2026

Panama exactly according to our wishes.

Oscar was a super guide. We were able to determine the course of the tour and our spots ourselves. We had, for example, no interest in shopping, so those spots were skipped. Instead, we had our own wishes and could go anywhere. Oscar waited patiently or came along. Just as one wanted. In between, there was a lot of information about the city and history. Thank you!

ATV Half-Day Tour in Cartagena

Marcus_A, Oct 2026

The Best Experience in Cartagena, Hands Down!

What an incredible experience! This was my first time riding an ATV. Christopher was the best guide. He started us off with a quick practice lap to ensure we were comfortable before we hit the trails. We rode out to a very private and secluded beach, which was a nice change of pace from the hustle of the city. No hagglers or people trying to sell you things, just vibes. We had a few drinks and then headed back. It was amazing seeing a different side of Cartagena from a more rural standpoint. I felt completely safe and empowered to show out a bit on the ATV. You will get dirty/muddy, so skip wearing anything fancy. I’d highly recommend water shoes for the boat ride to the island and beach as well. Book this NOW!!!!

Tour De Palenque, Road to Emancipation.

Sharon_D, Oct 2026

Amazing

Where to start? Our guide Roméo was engaging from the start and continued to be entertaining. He was very well informed and considerate. Palenque was as I imagined, we enjoyed local dancers, vendors, got to view beautiful murals and really gained history not taught in the States. I would love to go on another tour to learn even more.

Cartagena ATV Tour & Mini Motos

Steven_P, Sep 2026

An Unforgettable ATV Adventure—Scenic, Safe, and So Much Fun!

My friend and I had an absolute blast on this ATV tour! I had ridden an ATV before, but this was his first time, and it was a great experience for both of us. We started from their home base and rode along dirt roads toward a beautiful cliff overlooking the ocean. From there, we made our way down to another area where lunch was provided, then continued through private property and local neighborhoods near the beach. The highlight was getting to cruise at higher speeds along the beach—it was incredibly fun! I also really appreciated how seriously the guides took safety. Our guide constantly made sure everyone stayed together, checked to see if anyone was having trouble, and kept a close eye on the group throughout the entire tour. I felt like we were in very good hands. I definitely recommend this tour! It was exciting, scenic, well organized, and just the right length to easily fit between other activities we had planned. One of the most fun experiences of our trip!

Top 3 Islands Tour Bora Bora, Pao Pao and Islabela With Lunch

Steven_P, Sep 2026

Beautiful Islands and Great Value—Just Be Ready for a Bumpy Ride!

Overall, this was a really enjoyable and worthwhile experience. We visited three islands—Islabela, Pao Pao, and Bora Bora—and I thought the amount of time spent at each was just right for this type of tour. Each stop gave us enough time to relax on comfortable beach chairs under the umbrellas and enjoy the beautiful, clear, warm ocean. Lunch was also included, and I chose the chicken, which was very good. My only criticism would be the boat ride. It takes about 45 minutes to reach the islands and another 45 minutes back, and the ride can be extremely rough. We sat toward the front, and the boat repeatedly slammed against the water because of the speed. If you have any back problems, I would definitely avoid sitting in the front, although others mentioned that the middle and back could still be pretty rough. Despite the uncomfortable boat ride, I thought the overall experience was well worth the price. You get to visit three beautiful islands, enjoy the water, relax, and have lunch included. I would recommend it, just be prepared for a bumpy ride!

Rosario Islands and Playa Blanca Tour with Snorkeling or Aquarium

Excursion696062, Sep 2026

Swimming with dolphins

A very nice trip, well-served food, enough time on the beach, we chose the aquarium instead of the diving... it's only an hour... little time, but they guide you to swim with the dolphins immediately and then visit the park... with that we managed to swim with the dolphins but the time was rushed to see the park. The really cool guides.

Cartagena Jet Ski Adventure with Optional Drone Video

Dari_B, Sep 2026

Amazing Jet Ski Experience

This was an amazing experience from start to finish. The host had great energy, was welcoming, and made the entire experience fun and enjoyable. The jet skis were a blast, and the host was very accommodating and flexible when weather and traffic caused delays. I really appreciated the communication and willingness to work with us. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area!
