Great Trip away from the City

Published on Feb, 2025

For starters our tour guide was amazing. She spoke English and Spanish and was very informative. The beach, lounge chairs, service was all fantastic. I would highly recommend the fish.

A must do when visiting Cartagena !

Published on Jan, 2025

Carina and Rubén the driver were very helpful & professional.. Got picked up, arrived at Baru Island , then a short boat ride to Playa Tranquila ( less visited part of the beach ). What a feast to the eyes and senses ! Clear blue waters, nice drinks & excellent food . We opted for the massage ( recommend). None of us wanted to leave when the time came to!

Awesome time

Published on Jan, 2025

Karina was very hospitable and pleasant the moment we met her . She took us to a location where it was far away from other beach goers . 100% recommend.

Guide Karine

Published on Dec, 2024

Karine was an excellent tour guide very friendly and tentative to the whole family and on schedule with the itinerary. Highly recommend the tour.
