Excellence all around

Published on Jan, 2025

Excellent option to explore not just the walled city but also the San Felipe de Barajas Fort. I highly recommend it.

Celebrating anniversary and birthday

Published on Nov, 2024

The tour was very nice. But to long, they had two o three diferentes groups. Some of us visited the places they stopped. So we stayed in the bus waiting for them. We waited almost two hours for them to come back. But other than that it was great I liked it. I will recommend to my family and friends visiting Cartagena

You are in great hands

Great first tour on our Cartagena trip

Published on Feb, 2024

I thought this was a good tour to start with for our first time in Cartagena. We visited all of the stops that were advertised. I personally wanted to give a shout out to the tour group who were in constant communication with us prior to the tour and to also make note that even though we were the only two English speaking people on the tour that the guide went above and beyond to include us to make sure we didn't miss out on anything and made us feel very welcomed. The only side notes as mentioned in some other posts (which I knew beforehand, so this is not a complaint) is that the bus is not airconditioned and it can get very hot. The other mention is that near the end of the tour we stopped at an Emerald store to be given a sales pitch which I don’t recall reading about and didn’t so much mind except we spent a decent amount of time there which I would have wanted to spend elsewhere.
