Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Afhentning af hotel eller indkvartering i Santa Marta. Mød din certificerede lokale turguide og chauffør, og start derefter den private transfer til Tayrona National Park langs vejen, der grænser op til foden af Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. Undervejs vil din guide forklare om regionen, kort præsentere planen for dagen og besvare dine første spørgsmål.
Ved El Zaino hovedindgang, vil din certificerede guide personligt håndtere alle billetter, forsikring og besøgende registrering - ingen grund til at vente i kø. I løbet af denne tid vil du være fri til at bruge toilettet, købe snacks eller vand, eller afhente eventuelle ting i sidste øjeblik. Når alt er klar, vil du møde din guide igen og fortsætte med privat køretøj ind i parken, på vej mod udgangspunktet for vandreturen: Cañaveral
Begynd din økologiske tur gennem Tayrona National Park med en mild 4,5 km (2,8 mi) sti sektion, der starter fra Cañaveral. Denne del af vandreturen har skyggefulde jungle stier, træ gågader og milde skråninger. Undervejs vil du nyde frodig tropisk vegetation, havbriser og muligheden for at spotte aber, søer eller fugle, før du fortsætter mod Playa La Piscina - et roligt og naturskønt strandområde dybere inde i parken.
Efter at have passeret Arenilla Beach, ankommer vi til Playa La Piscina - en rolig, naturligt beskyttet bugt ideel til svømning og afslapning. Dette stop er også et beslutningspunkt: Du kan nyde et hurtigt dyk, tage billeder eller hvile i skyggen, før du fortsætter den endelige strækning mod Cabo San Juan. Trail herfra til Cape er omkring 1,5 km (0,9 mi), normalt tager omkring 30 minutter (hver vej) i et stabilt tempo. Det er op til dig, om du skal blive her længere eller fortsætte videre for at fuldføre turen.
Du har nået Cabo San Juan - den mest ikoniske strand inde Tayrona National Park. Den korte sti fra La Piscina indebærer en sandet og stenet sti, der fører til et panoramaudsigt med udsigt over turkis vand, gylden sand, granit sten og frodig jungle alt i en betagende scene. Det er op til dig, om du skal tage et forfriskende bad, slappe af under palmerne eller bare nyde udsigten og tage billeder, før du vender tilbage. Der er en lille kiosk, hvor du kan købe drikkevarer eller få adgang til toiletter (på egen bekostning). Efter at have nydt dette sted, begynder vi turen tilbage mod La Piscina
Efter at have besøgt Cabo San Juan, vender vi tilbage til Playa La Piscina, efter samme naturskønne sti tilbage. Denne rolige, beskyttede bugt er et perfekt sted at slappe af, svømme eller bare nyde udsigten. Det er op til dig, om du skal tage et forfriskende dyk eller bruge denne tid til en valgfri frokost på dine egne omkostninger. Nogle rejsende vælger at slappe af her, mens andre foretrækker at holde et stabilt tempo. Efter denne pause fortsætter vi på stien mod Cañaveral for at fuldføre tilbagevenden.
Vi begynder den tilbagevendende vandretur fra Playa La Piscina tilbage mod Cañaveral sektor, følger den samme økologiske sti i omvendt. Denne 4,5 km (2,8 mi) sektion tager typisk mindre tid end den udgående vandretur, da der er færre informative pauser. Alligevel kan vi stoppe kort, hvis vi opdager aber, fugle eller andre vilde dyr undervejs. Når vi når parkeringspladsen, vil dit private køretøj vente - sammen med flaskevand til at forfriske før kørslen tilbage til Santa Marta.
Efter færdiggørelsen af vandreturen går vi ombord på det private køretøj, der venter på parkeringspladsen i Cañaveral for tilbagetrækningen til Santa Marta. Dette er et godt tidspunkt at hvile, nyde aircondition, eller bare slappe af efter en hel dag med natur og eventyr. Mange rejsende tager chancen for at sove eller reflektere over oplevelsen under den naturskønne køretur tilbage til byen. Drop-off er inkluderet på dit hotel eller samme sted, hvor turen begyndte.

We did a private day tour with César through Santa Marta and Tayrona National Park, and it exceeded every expectation. He picked us up right on time and was flexible with our schedule the whole day. In Santa Marta we visited the Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino, and César brought all the history of Simón Bolívar to life in a way that made the visit so much more meaningful. Second day we headed into Tayrona, stopping at a couple of the most beautiful beaches in the park, with César sharing insight on the wildlife and making sure we had breaks from the heat along the way. What stood out most was how attentive and patient he was the entire day, he made us feel completely taken care of from start to finish. The views were stunning and the whole experience felt seamless thanks to his planning. If you’re visiting Santa Marta, book with César, you will not regret it. We’re already planning to do another tour with him next time we’re back!
Thank you so much, Danna, for this wonderful review. It was a real pleasure spending those two days with you and sharing both Santa Marta and Tayrona National Park. I’m especially glad that you enjoyed the flexibility of the experience. For me, a private tour is about more than simply visiting the main attractions — it’s about having the time to enjoy each place at your own pace, learning about the history and nature, and making sure you feel comfortable throughout the day. It was also a pleasure sharing some of Santa Marta’s history with you and then exploring the beaches and wildlife of Tayrona together. I’m very happy to know that you felt well taken care of from beginning to end. Thank you again for trusting me with part of your trip. I’ll be very happy to see you again when you return to Santa Marta and help you discover another side of the region. Until next time! CÉSAR
This was an amazing experience with the family, great value for the price and a highly recommend excursion, Cesar our amazing guide made sure we had a blast and safe adventure, Cesar was incredible with us very patient and professional and friendly, I would definitely recommend him for any of this experience and also if you like other experience he will recommend you the right people and also make sure your experience is epic and safe, Big thanks to Cesar for making our vacation an amazing experience, till next time beautiful Santa Marta.
Esteban, thank you so much for taking the time to share such a wonderful review. It was a real pleasure to spend time with you and your family during your stay in Santa Marta. I’m very happy that you enjoyed Tayrona, and that we were able to see so much wildlife along the way. I also remember our late departure from the park, but there was no need to rush — everything was under control, and our driver was waiting for us at the parking area. I’m glad you could enjoy the experience without worrying about the time. I also really enjoyed organizing the different plans for your family in Minca. It was great to see everyone enjoying the day in their own way, and especially to see you arriving by enduro motorcycle and meeting the rest of the family at the waterfalls. I’m glad it worked out so well for everyone. Thank you again for trusting me with your tours and transportation in Santa Marta. It was a pleasure meeting all of you, and I hope to see your family again on your next visit to Colombia. You will always be very welcome in Santa Marta! Sincerely, TOUR GUIDE CÉSAR
Overall was a nice experience. Weather was perfect. Easy hike from the parking lot in the national park to the Cabo San Juan. Pick up was timely and flexible. I opted for an earlier 620am pickup. But can be whatever you decide with Cesar. Maybe I was lucky, got in on a Friday and it was very quiet and peaceful only seeing a handful while getting to the end point. The beaches and view were excellent and not that many people. Cesar was informative about the different insects/animals/birds and kept an eye open for monkeys. We saw bats, crabs, ants, rocks. Overall easy hike. Very convenient as the driver was waiting readily when we got back and didn't have to wait. When we arrived back at the parking lot it seemed like several people were waiting for the shuttle to get back to the gate..but in my case, the driver was there already which was nice. Overall was fun and got in safely in the park and to the destination and back to the hotel.... worth the $268 USD/pp? Maybe $200 would be better priced. I was solo so I did pay another premium, almost double. (Understood, TA or viator does charge a fee to these operators so thr markup has to be significant) Price paid is slightly pricey... Understood, the whole activity can be for 8-10hrs. Which on a per hour basis, makes sense... but one suggestion is perhaps to include the lunch and a drink as part of the cost (as this is only about 40k-50k COP ~ $12-15USD) But all was good. Can it be done on your own? Certainly,.. The cost of convenience does play into it... Cesar was great 10/10 though
Hi Mikael, Thank you very much for taking the time to write such a detailed and thoughtful review. Your feedback truly means a lot to me. I'm very happy to hear you enjoyed the experience, from the early pickup and quieter trail to the beaches, the scenery, and the wildlife we spotted along the hike. It was a pleasure to adjust the pickup time to fit your plans and make the day as smooth and convenient as possible, including having the driver ready when you returned from the park. I also appreciate your thoughtful comments about the pricing and your suggestion regarding lunch. I completely understand your point. For this tour, I've chosen to keep meals flexible so each traveler can decide what they would like to eat or drink during the day, based on their own preferences and appetite. However, I truly value your suggestion and will certainly keep it in mind as I continue improving the experience. Thank you again for choosing to explore Tayrona with me. I'm delighted you had a safe, enjoyable day, and I hope to welcome you back to Santa Marta in the future. César Entertaining Travel
Our family had a great time with Cesar last week on our tour of Tayrona Park. He met us on time at our hotel and drove us to the park and handled all of the entrance fees, etc. On the hike, he did a nice job of pointing out the local flora and fauna, and we enjoyed seeing everything from small bats to caiman to howler monkeys. He hiked at a pace tailored to our group, which allowed for us to spend some great time at two of the beautiful beaches in the park. After a relaxing afternoon at the beach, we were able to walk back a bit later than others and enjoy the amazing peace and natural beauty of the forest. It was a memorable day, and Cesar was a fantastic guide!
Hi Jackson, Thank you very much for your kind words! It was a real pleasure spending the day with you and your daughters. I’m glad we were able to enjoy such a special experience together, especially spotting wildlife along the way — those moments always make Tayrona even more memorable. I also really appreciated your idea of taking a slower pace and allowing more space on the trail. It definitely paid off and made the experience even more unique. Wishing you and your family all the best, and I hope to see you again in Colombia someday! Best regards, CÉSAR Entertaining Travel
Cesar was the absolute BEST guide that we had in Colombia! His knowledge, experience, delightful personality, engaging spirit and kindness set him apart from others. Cesar is THE BEST guide we have had in all of our world travels! Highly recommend him! Enjoy your day in his company!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Your kind words truly mean a lot to me. It was a pleasure sharing a day in Tayrona National Park with you, and I’m very grateful for your recommendation. Knowing that the experience stood out during your travels in Colombia is incredibly rewarding. Wishing you many more great adventures, and thank you again for your trust. Best regards, CÉSAR MERA Entertaining Travel
Good walk in high humidity, with rest stops along the way and great views of the coastline and forest
Thank you very much for your review! We’re really happy to hear you enjoyed your Tayrona National Park experience. A special thanks from Aldair, your tour guide, and Alberto, your driver — they truly enjoyed spending the day with you both on January 27th. We’re glad the walking pace, wildlife sightings, and overall experience made your visit memorable. Wishing you a wonderful continuation of your trip in Colombia! Best regards, Entertaining Travel Agency
We spend a wonderful private adventure and walk in Tayrona Nationalpark with Eduardo. He is an experienced, knowledgeable and friendly guide. Also, our driver Rafael, drove us safely to and from the Nationalpark. We can wholeheartedly recommend this tour.
Thank you very much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. It was a pleasure organizing your Tayrona National Park tour and your private transfer to Cartagena. We’re very happy to hear you enjoyed the walk in the park and were lucky enough to see capuchin monkeys along the way — those moments always make the day extra special. I’ll be sure to pass your comments on to Eduardo, and also to Rafael, who took care of your transportation both in Santa Marta and on the way to Cartagena. Thank you again for trusting us. We truly appreciate your recommendation and wish you many more great adventures ahead. Best regards, César TourGuideCesar / Entertaining Travel
Where do I begin? We booked this experience less than 48 hours prior because we had a free day in Santa Marta and wanted to explore nature. I do not have enough space to convey our absolute gratitude for César and the unforgettable day he provided. We loved the day so much that we keep saying we would take 100 more tours with him. It is officially the greatest tour experience I've ever had, and we felt like we'd made a friend at the end of it. We can't stop talking about it. To start, César contacted us quickly to arrange a pickup in Santa Marta. He then provided an informational sheet to prepare us for our hike. It was so informative that we had zero questions or concerns beforehand. He arrived at our hotel lobby 10 minutes early to pick us up with a private chauffeur. Our driver, Rafa, was exceptional. He drove so well that we were completely at ease on our first morning in a new place. I have never been so comfortable with another driver behind the wheel in my life. On our way to Tayrona Park, César gave us information about Colombia, the geography, and the history of the land. He made the drive more fun and made us excited for the arrival. At the park, he handled the tickets and insurance while we got water and snacks. We had zero responsibility or concern. In the park, he knew every person we passed. He gave us insider tips, showed us countless animals and experiences we never would have seen/found ourselves, and educated us on the flora and fauna. He had a pen light to help us spot things - which I deeply appreciated. He notified us of every slippery spot on the path and every branch overhead, ensuring our safety 100% of the way. We trusted him so much on the walk that we were literally following his footsteps. We also talked the whole day, as conversation with him was easy and fun. The hike itself stunned us. The views were spectacular, the water was incredible, and our lucky animal sightings took our breath away. We entered with low expectations and left feeling like we'd walked out of a dream. He even had a surprise for us that went above and beyond all expectation. César truly planned every detail of this day with such expert precision and thought that we could simply be along for the ride. We weren't troubled by anything, never felt unsafe, and were sad when it was over. We couldn't possibly express our gratitude and contentment enough. I would recommend this to every person visiting Santa Marta or Colombia and only wish that I could bring César with me on other trips. We truly loved our time with him.
Thank you so much, Samantha and Jaime, for taking the time to write such a beautiful and emotional review. Reading your words truly means a lot to me. From the very first “nice to meet you” moment, there was an immediate connection, and I felt it was going to be a special day. That kind of energy is what makes guiding so meaningful for me — when it feels less like a tour and more like sharing a place I love with new friends. We were also incredibly lucky that day with the wildlife we encountered along the trail. I truly believe that kind of luck comes from good energy, and yours definitely played a part. Those moments in nature are always special, and I’m glad we got to experience them together. I’m also very happy that you felt comfortable throughout the entire day, including the drive. Rafael, our driver, is a key part of the experience, and together we always aim to create a calm, safe, and well-coordinated journey. Traveling in my own vehicle allows us to keep everything flexible and comfortable, so you can simply relax and enjoy the day. Thank you again for your trust, your openness, and your kind words. I truly hope our paths cross again someday — you will always be welcome back in Santa Marta. Warm regards, César Mera Entertaining Travel
An amazing experience. We took a tour with Caesar of the Tayrona we would repeat for sure. They also helped us with the journey to the airport and Cartagena, a 10.
Muchísimas gracias, Carmen, por tus palabras y por confiar en mí para organizar vuestro tour en el Parque Tayrona y los traslados durante vuestra estancia. Fue un verdadero placer acompañarlas y saber que disfrutaron la experiencia me llena de satisfacción. Me alegra que se sintieran seguras durante la caminata y sobre todo con el regreso en lancha, y que todo el trayecto —incluyendo los traslados desde el aeropuerto y hacia Cartagena— haya sido cómodo para ustedes. El objetivo es que siempre cada viaje sea fluido, bien coordinado y adaptado a las necesidades del grupo. Gracias de nuevo por elegirnos. Ojalá podamos coincidir en una próxima visita a Colombia. ¡Siempre serán bienvenidas en Santa Marta! Un abrazo para ti y para todo el grupo, Cordialmente, César Mera Entertaining Travel
Cesar is the best! He was a very careful and knowledgable guide. He handled tickets ahead of time so we didn't have to wait in line, and he knows every tricky spot on the trails. He also helped arrange a half-day tour for us to a different part of the Park (shout out to David who was also wonderful!). Highly recommend supporting Cesar's small business.
Dear Victoria, Thank you for your wonderful review. It was a pleasure guiding you both, and I'm delighted to hear you appreciated the arrangements and felt safe on the trails. I'll be sure to pass on your kind words to David as well. Your support means a lot to our small business. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future. Warm regards,
