Cristiane_D, Oct 2026

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

Kim_M, Oct 2026

Great Day of Fun, Sun and Relaxation

The 5 Island Hop was one of the highlightsof our Cartagena trip. Edwin and his crew were super friendly from start to finish and made us feel right at home. The ride out and back on the speedboat was so much fun, and the music selections were on point and kept the energy up the whole way. Along the route we got a quick history lesson at two of the stops, which added a nice touch before we settled into the fun part: several gorgeous beaches and beach clubs. We lucked into a day of good weather and spent it exactly how you'd want to: relaxing, snorkeling in clear water, enjoying a good lunch, and soaking up great company.

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

Kiren_P, Oct 2026

The tour guides, Albert...

The tour guides, Albert and Juliette, were lovely and attentive to all the guests. The experience was great. Definitely take water with you as you’re only given one small bottle which is not enough for the whole day. Loved the snorkelling and wish we could have spent more time there.

Tour De Palenque, Road to Emancipation.

Natalia_A, Sept 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable and Authentic Experience in Palenque!

We had an incredible tour of San Basilio de Palenque with Romeo, who was a fantastic guide! He and the local community welcomed us with open arms, everyone was super friendly (amable) and made us feel completely safe and right at home throughout the entire visit. The tour is available in both English and Spanish, making it easy and engaging for everyone. A major highlight was the food, we had the most amazing fish stewed in coconut milk! Beyond the history and culture, it was also a great opportunity to connect with interesting people along the way. I highly encourage both national and international travelers to book this tour. It’s not only a rich cultural experience, but also a meaningful way to directly support the local community. Don't miss it when visiting Colombia!

I had the most amazing day to bring in my birthday. BOOK THIS NOW YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.

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

Steven_P, Sept 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!

Cartagena ATV Tour & Mini Motos

JaMor_H, Sept 2026

Finally an ATV Tour Worth the Money. Book this one!

As someone who grew up riding ATV and other recreational vehicles, I’ve never been much of a fan of ATV tours. They’ve always been underwhelming and over managed. This experience was perfect! Very beautiful views of course, knowledgeable guides and staff, and just the right amount of guidance - adaptable for rider skill levels.

Cartagena Jet Ski Adventure with Optional Drone Video

Dari_B, Sept 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!

Private City Tour of Cartagena

Melissa_A, Jun 2026

Amazing Tour for a Port Day

Luis and Trefone were an amazing duo! Luis was extremely knowledgeable and Trefone easily navigated traffic. They were both kind and attentive and made sure we were able to see everything included in the tour itinerary even after our cruise ship was delayed getting into port. Scion Tours responded quickly and were understanding of the situation when I messaged them the morning of our tour to let them know that we would be late for pickup. I would highly recommend this tour for a port day!

Island Hopping Party Boat Tour: 5 Stops with Lunch, Cholon & Baru

AsiaMeneese, Jun 2026

Felt like family

Miguel and his crew were welcoming, fun, and informative. They made us feel like we were at home. They played music while we were island hopping which made the experience even better, not to mention the beautiful scenery along the way. I would recommend this trip for anyone but especially those who like to have fun, are social (but you don't have to be), solo , anyone who's willing to have good time
