Amazing day, got to see...

Published on Mar, 2025

Amazing day, got to see some great animals including monkeys and had a few hours chilling on the beach. Great lunch by the sea also. Hugo was an amazing guide, very knowledgable and perfect English. Couldn’t do more to help, so courteous! Would highly recommend ❤️

Amazing experience from beginning to end

Published on Dec, 2024

We could not have asked for a better day. We are a family of 4 adult children with our spouses and our 86 year old father. A comfortable van stocked with water showed up exactly on time. Eric and David, our two guides, were perfect. Eric is a passionate and expert naturalist and historian and was able to give this very curious group fascinating information about the Indigenous peoples, plants, birds and animals on our hike into the jungle to an archeological village. He knew everything! David was so kind with my father, helping him with a few tricky areas on the path. After the hike and tour of the village, we went on a one hour tubing excursion down river to where it meets the sea. On the way we saw ospreys, fish eagles, howler monkeys and other wonderful creatures. Eric had bags of oranges and other local fruit to share with us and we spent about 20 minutes on a lovely beach. Then we went back upriver by boat to a tiny restaurant in the jungle. Fresh fried snapper for lunch for $10 per person!

Tailored trips and travel in and around Tayrona

Published on Aug, 2024

We used Bukap for 3 trips in Colombia. Private transfer from Cartagena to Tayrona National Park, day in the park with a guide and a transfer from Tayrona to Santa Marta airport. Communication and booking was easy and they were able to tailor the trips to what we needed. All 3 trips were excellent, with the highlight being the guided day tour of the park. Would definitely book through them again. Many thanks!

Private tour of the Tayrona Park

Published on Apr, 2024

The private tour to the Tayrona Park was the best decision. Juan Polo was our tour guide and we were lucky to have him. He was funny, he knows a lot of. The history of the park, the nature, plants, animals , the Colombian culture, etc. he kept us going through tbd whole hike. We were able to spend a good amount of time in the main two beaches. The food was really good. Overall had an amazing time and will do it again and again. Our driver Hader was also a really nice person both Juan and Hader carry on with the conversation and we were able to learn things from Santa Marta and its surroundings.

Sublime Experience

Published on Apr, 2024

We loved this tour. David is such an energetic and amiable guide. And whilst the walk was strenuous at times it was rewarding all throughout.
