All things coffee
This was an enjoyable, authentic experience in Cartagena. We have visited the city before and opted for this tour, as my husband is a coffee enthusiast. It was nice being in a small local coffee shop with just 6 people. David knows his coffee! He imparted so much coffee knowledge using maps, coffee history and multiple coffee making devices. I don't drink coffee so didn't sample much but my husband really enjoyed it and we were able to select some Colombian coffee beans to bring home.

Amazing yet disappointing
I arrived to the location, a beautiful coffee shop with local charm. The class is amazing. I got to learn about the history of coffee and learn from someone who really appreciates their craft. My only disappointment is the misleading text of them session. It was described as you would get to choose your bean roasted and grind it yourself. All of which never occurred. The master performed everything in front of us audience. I enjoyed learning, but this was advertise as a more hands-on experience and I was left wanting.
Operator response

Great coffee experience
I really enjoyed this experience. I’m a coffee lover and wanted an immersive experience and that’s exactly what I got. You can see the love the owner has for his craft. I also enjoyed the 80s/90s music references that filtered through the presentation. As for the coffee - amazing! I should’ve bought more.
Operator response

One of the Highlights of our Trip
It was our first trip to Cartagena, so we decided that a coffee related excursion was appropriate. There were several options, but we decided on the Coffee Master. It was a fantastic choice. David truly knows his coffee and provides an informative and entertaining presentation. Highly recommended.

Awesome Colombian coffee class!
David was super knowledgeable about coffee, the roasting process, global bean varieties, coffee history and more. We got to sample multiple coffee varieties and brewing styles. Definitely worth it, especially if you love coffee. Plus, we David is very funny and didn’t rush through the class, and we go to take down Colombian coffee home with us. Would do again!

Not worth it! Bad hosting! Bad coffee!
First we were not accepted at the scheduled time as the host was not even aware of the event. So we had to go two hours later.
About the actual time experience, they was not roasting of the beans and none of it was interactive at all. The host just talked for two hours and spoke fast and softly with a thick accent and it was to understand what he was saying. I asked him to speak up a few times and it didn’t change anything. And he never engaged the audience in any way and kept talking the whole time without making sure anyone was following along. And all the coffees prepared as part of this experience tasted pretty bad. So total waste of money and time.
Operator response
We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience. December is a peak period, leading to scheduling challenges. Our shared experiences aim to accommodate a larger audience. We regret the lack of interactivity and taste concerns. Your input helps us improve. Thank you for choosing Impulse Travel.

Good, but not great.
Was interesting and the coffee was outstanding! Just too long (3 hours and 2 would have been plenty long). Also we were jammed in. We had a group of nine, and there was barely room for us, then 2 more joined us. Uncomfortably tight.
Operator response
