Perfect tour for first timers in Cartagena

Our guide, Roberto Carlos, was super helpful and knowledgeable, with a very good level of English. It was good to know some historical facts, as well as have visibility over both the inside and outside area of the Cartagena wall, with many fun facts in between. Definitely recommend for someone visiting for the first time.

The best private Transfer from/to Cartagena airport. ONE WAY

Eacata_G, May 2026

Smooth and comfortable airport transport

Had zero issues with this airport transfer. The company and the driver, Juan, both contacted me the day before to confirm and provide useful information. Juan continued to communicate and when I asked for an earlier pickup last minute he obliged with no issues. The ride itself was quick, safe, and comfortable. Juan was friendly and we chatted despite the language issue. A+ service.

Walled City, San Felipe Castle & Popa Convent Cartagena City Tour

Jordan_R, Apr 2026

This tour is amazing,...

This tour is amazing, would 10/10 recommend! Especially with Jhon as the tour guide it was the perfect blend of informational and fun. I would also recommend doing the tour as early in the day as possible to beat the sun a bit. We started at the castle and got there before all of the crowds which was awesome. We were able to see Cartagena and walk around before the tour on our trip, but you really see the city through a different lense on this tour. If you are planning a trip to Cartagena I wouldn’t miss this!!!

Brunch And Paint in a secret rooftop

Alexis_J, Apr 2026

10/10 Rooftop Paint & Sip

We had such a great time at the rooftop paint & sip! It ended up being just me and my friend, so it felt like a private lesson which made the experience even more special. The artist and translator were both incredibly kind, informative, and easy to talk to. The conversation flowed naturally, and they made us feel very comfortable the entire time. The atmosphere was beautiful and relaxing—definitely a memorable experience. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting!

Half-Day Tour to Totumo Mud Volcano from Cartagena

Angeleah_M, Mar 2026

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.

Cartagena, CO: Sunset Skyline Bay Tour on a Pirate Boat + Drinks

Avni_R, Mar 2026

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.

Cartagena Photo Experience

cristal_r, Oct 2025

LOVED this experience!

Sergio and his partner are an incredible team! They were kind, knowledgeable, and super talented from start to finish. The entire process was smooth and easy, and we felt comfortable the whole time. I'm absolutely in love with the photos—they captured Cartagena and my personality perfectly. Highly recommend booking them!

Sunset Cruise in Cartagena

Zac_J, Aug 2025

Relaxing and Fun Sunset Boat Ride

This was a fun, relaxing boat ride around Cartagena. You get one drink and one snack included with your ticket (water is free). The boat ride is smooth, there is plenty of seating, and the crew is all friendly and helpful. They play music the entire journey, which becomes more festive as the sun sets. Many people danced on our boat ride, and many more sang along to the popular songs. The view is great, though be prepared to be in the sun for the first hour or so. Also, unlike many things in Colombia, this journey starts exactly on time, so make sure you arrive early enough to not be left behind!
