Sail Cartagena at sunset on a comfortable catamaran, with skyline views, one drink, and a small appetizer, plus smooth music on board.
“Amazing sunset cruise. The boat was spacious, appetizers came at just the right time, and drinks were reasonably priced.”
Sunset party boat in Cartagena from Muelle de los Pegasos, $22 with open bar, music, Virgen del Carmen views, then nightclub entry.
“I would change nothing about this activity and how it was handled. I had the most fun and met some incredible people. The vibes were immaculate, even on a monday night.”
A 2-hour sunset catamaran cruise in Cartagena with city views, soft drinks, and snacks, sailing from Muelle de la Bodeguita.
“Overall, I didn't enjoy the cruise nor do I feel this was worth the $30. First, the boat/catamaran was crowded. Not sure how many people were on board but I believe the listing mentioned the boat holds up to 150 people. Second, the appetizers offered were cold and...unappetizing. You get a token for a free drink onboard with very limited options. Finally, the staff wasn't very friendly which is unusual in Cartagena. Instead, they were quite indifferent and unwelcoming. It seemed they were just going through the motions. There was no communication when the boat departed (i.e., no safety protocols, no warnings, etc.). It simply left the port. But when…”
90 minutes on Cartagena Bay at sunset with an open bar, music, and night views of Bocagrande, Manga, Getsemaní, and the old city.
“Great staff! The rum punch was good and the cruise was so fun. Highly recommend!!”
Pirate-boat Cartagena sunset cruise with open bar cocktails, cannon show, costume photos, and fortress plus skyline views around the bay.
“The sunset cruise on Fantastica Pirate ship was wonderful. Captain Xavier and his crew were excellent! Their customer service was A+. They were very attentive and made sure everyone had a great time. I would recommend that crew and cruise to others!”
A 90-minute Cartagena sunset skyline cruise on a pirate ship with unlimited rum and non-alcoholic drinks, photos, and a cannon show.
“This was one of the best things I did during my stay in Cartagena. The staff were all very friendly, and they definitely kept the rum with lemonades coming! Very relaxing sail to the end of the peninsula, where you watch the sunset, and sail back to the pier, looking at Cartagena's buildings lit up. Highly recommend, especially if you drink rum.”
A 90-minute Cartagena sunset cruise with assigned seating, unlimited drinks, and skyline views over calm bay waters from Muelle de la Bodeguita.
“Nice sunset cruise,took a lot of beautiful pictures Friendly staff Had a great time. The staff went above and beyond to get us on board. Drinks were nice,for the price.”
Night bike tour in Medellín with included bike and helmet, snacks and beer, and major viewpoints like Pueblito Paisa, in a small group.
“Everything about this tour, especially Daniel, he was knowledgeable about the history and was full of information when ever asked. I highly recommend him!”
Sunset horseback rides on Cartagena’s La Boquilla beach with a bilingual guide, mangrove eco views, and a Caribbean lunch for $50.
“It was a fantastic tour. Gabriel and Jose were great guides, and their team were all excellent. They were all super attentive to make sure we were all comfortable with the horse. They also had a great way of working with the horses which was pleasing to see. The tour was also very informative and not just about the pictures which we loved. We learned a bit about the native residents of Boquilla and discovered a new area as part of the tour. Would love to do this again if we come back to this part of the world! Gracias Gabriel y Jose!”
Full-day Barú tour from Cartagena: mangroves, raccoon feeding, Rosario snorkeling, bioluminescent plankton at night, and sunset at Freedom Beach Club.
“snorkel di 10 minuti senza boccaglio in una zona dove c'erano davvero pochi pesci, situazione molto confusa, barca per trasferimento al beach club scomoda. chiedono il 15% per pagamenti con carta, cibo non male ma nemmeno ottimo. un po' diverso dalla descrizione del tour. non consigliato”
Medellín night at El Cielo viewpoint for photos, optional adrenaline games, and a guided stop at Michigan Pizzeria with city views.
“Fantastic guide, great tour with history of the area, lookout points and even a tasty local treat in his families home. Even stopped for beers, dancing, street art exhibits and souvenirs!”
Classic sailboat sunset cruise in Santa Marta, sailing to Taganga Bay with 2 drinks included and big color-filled sky photo moments.
“O pôr-do-sol visto de dentro do mar é muito bonito e especial. Ficamos muito felizes por ter tido essa experiência. A equipe do veleiro é atenciosa e gentil, durante todo o passeio estiveram preocupados com as pessoas abordo e o bem-estar de todos. É uma experiência interessante, mas para quem tem medo de barco ou passa mal durante travessias eu não recomendo. Venta bastante e o veleiro fica instável, gerando movimentos contínuos para os lados, as vezes dando a impressão de que algo pode acontecer. Claro que a minha impressão é de alguém que não conhece/veleja, mas é uma impressão sincera sobre o passeio. Não dei nota máxima porque a…”
