Mangroves with Cesar

Anonymous, Aug 2026

We were picked up on time by Cesar and he was very friendly and knowledgable. The experience was just as described. Cesar even threw in an impromptu visit to the La Isla De Pescador which was not part of the itinerary. The kids got to hold a turtle, try their hand at fishing and Enrique the caretaker gave us a lesson on local herbs. We would highly recommend this experience if you would like to have an authentic flavor of La Boquilla.

Passionate tour guide

Cesar Rada was a wonderful and personable guide. He was prompt and reliable. Knows and cares a lot about Columbian history and took great care of us. Was a lovely experience going through the mangrove forest and then spending time of the beach with a fabulous lunch. Thank you!
