Tour to the Mud Volcano in Cartagena with Lunch
Description
It is a unique experience in the world: there are not many active mud volcanoes accessible for tourism. Fun feeling: floating in the mud is an out of the ordinary experience. Skin benefits : the sludge is rich in natural minerals. Cultural interaction: direct contact with local communities offering traditional services. Ideal for photos and social networks : a very striking and different place. Short activity and easy to combine with other plans in Cartagena.

Samuel was the most excellent host. The mud volcano was quite a unique experience! Our family of four enjoyed our time at the volcano and also at Coco Beach Club for lunch and a relaxing two hours beside the pool prior to returning back to our hotel. Be advised that the services by the locals at the volcano are 10,000 cop per service per person in your group. For example, if you have someone take your picture and you are a family of four, it will cost you 40,000 cop in cash.
We had a really great time. Our guide helped us to navigate and communicate with the vendors at the mud volcano. Note, ensure to always confirm the price of any service before accepting.

This trip was very fun and exciting. The only scary part was going down the stairs. I am glad the host was organized. Lunch was really good time spent at the pool was relaxing.

This was an extremely memorable day for my mother and I. Our guide stayed with us the entire day and gave a clear run down on what to expect for day. From how much to tip the locals who were working the volcano ,even being a buffer to make sure we weren’t being overcharged, to what lunch and the pool day(dangerous beach conditions)would consist of. She was a gem and made a huge impact on how great the day went. This is such a great deal, make sure you book!

We had an awesome time and the experience was incredible. I definitely recommend definitely reach out after booking to verify pickup location and communication through WhatsApp. Also bring towel, bag, and bottle water.

A different kind of experience that you do once in your lifetime. The mud bath is crowded but still relaxing. While you are told the massages, cleaning and holding of items is optional it is not really so expect to pay 40000 pesos per person while you are there. Be sure to have cash. The beach following the mud bath is the same beach at Marbella. Not the cleanest but not the worst. There is a pool you can swim in as well. Lunch was decent.
Hello, good afternoon, thank you for your comment. Regarding the additional services, they are only available if you request them; otherwise, they do not charge you for a service not received.
We did a few tours in Colombia and this guide was the best one! David is super friendly and goes above and beyond, we definitely recommend doing this activity on this tour!
