A romantic Cartagena Bay dinner cruise with 3-course meal and two glasses of wine. Calm night views, easy logistics, extra dock tax.
“It was okay at first! Fast boarding and pleasant service from the workers. NOW! Lets talk about food and package included in my order. When purchased the package it said half bottle person (wine) but it was lies . They only gave us 2 glasses and it was less that half glass. The wines are very cheap wines and taste horrible.

Private dinner in a Cartagena home with chef Andrés Ulloa, Caribbean dishes, local stories, and great value for $52 per person.

It was a very intimate experience learning about his story, the story of the foods of colombia, and getting to taste so many delicious creations. He also gave great reccomendations of other places to visit while in Colombia and continued to be responsive days after our experience. Rock on Anakin!”

White Night dinner cruise on Cartagena’s Bequia Eagle with inner-bay views, dance show, and open bar national spirits, $78.
“Fue una experiencia increíble!!! Llegamos y nos recibieron con un cóctel de bienvenida. Bailaron jóvenes y señoritas y posteriormente nos sirvieron la cena, sencilla pero muy deliciosa; arroz, papas, ceviche, ensalada de verduras, de postre arroz con leche. Luego bailamos y brindamos. Lo que mejoraría sería que hubiesen más barman y que haya más variedad de cócteles como piña colada, mojitos, espumantes, etc. ya que solo había un barman y había que hacer fila para pedir un trago y solo había RON 🍹 En general es excelente la experiencia, la recomiendo !!!!”
