Cartagena is a lot larger than you think it is and a number of the things you want to see are pretty spread out. This tour gave us the highlights of pretty much everything and got us back to the ship on time even though we had a really tight schedule because of the length of time our ship was in port. Benny was the lead guide but the driver and our other guy were all fantastic. Great to have air conditioning too! Cartagena is hot. So, even though those open cars look like fun, we saw people sweating in those. Take this door instead. You will enjoy it!

The company made it easy to meet the tour- they didn’t leave you wandering around. Easy to find them. Really appreciated it since there were 3 ships in port. Our tour guide was from Cartagena so knew the areas well. Very personable.

Guide with a lot of knowledge of the subject of very light blood, extensive knowledge of history, geography and especially dates
Muchas gracias por compartir su opinión y por resaltar la riqueza cultural, histórica y el encanto de Cartagena. Nos alegra saber que la experiencia con nuestro guía fue de su agrado y que destacó su amplio conocimiento en historia, geografía y fechas relevantes, así como su manera amena de transmitir la información.
Directions to stop was misleading. They mentioned zone 1 and someone holding a card with the name on it. Nothing of that sort. The guide, Benny, was talking nonstop. He would lecture for 20 minutes and give us only 10-15 minutes to actually see the place. The tint in the bus pretty much blurred the city view from the bus. Couldn’t really get much of the city architecture or buildings. Waste of money. Only good thing was he showed us a place to eat really juicy mangoes. It was absolutely delicious.
Hello! Thank you so much for your comment. We will review the situation with our guide to emphasize the importance of taking your time to appreciate the places. We hope to see you again soon. Best regards!
Great driver. Cool van. Abundance of cultural and relevant information. Bring a fan and a hat as there are periods of standing in the sun. For us Americans it was hot and humid. Eduardo was personable and passionate about Cartagena the historical, religious, and cultural highlights of the area. Due to our short time in port, didn't have time to stop for a cervesa, which was a bummer.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour, the comfort of the van, and the cultural insights shared along the way. Eduardo will be thrilled to know his passion and friendliness made your experience even better.
Excellent tour, very complete. Arthur is an excellent guide, he knows a lot about the history of his city. Fully recommended 👌

This tour was perfect for the short amount of time we were in port Our guide Benny and driver Anderson were great. Pick up location was easy to find. would recommend to any cruiser coming in for the day
Thank you for your kind review! We're happy to hear that Benny and Anderson made your short visit to Cartagena enjoyable and stress-free. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again on your next cruise stop!
we were met at the port and taken to meet the bus at the monastery , there we joined the tour led by Benny and we really enjoyed it. The tour lasted 4 hours and he made sure we saw all of the itinerary on the trip with a great informative commentary. He made sure we were well informed about times and got us back to the ship in good time. We really enjoyed this tour, it gave us a good look at the old and new parts of the city and a glimpse of the history and we got to see as much as we could in the short time available. There was plenty of time for shopping and photo opportunities. I'd recommend this tour.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re glad Benny provided a well-organized and informative tour, and that you enjoyed both the historical and modern sides of Cartagena. Your recommendation means a lot to us!
