The taste of Cartagena - I know Cartagena has a reputation for great and good restaurants, but just my friends and I were looking for places to eat locals. And that was just what Angie did: she took us around the best places to eat street food. Go without fear and very hungry. Great experience

Viator Finds A Way - For the record, Viator and an outside contractor worked together to get us our tour. Viator did not supply the guide, the contractor did and she was absolutely excellent. Viator had to sign our contract over to the contractor because the Viator tour could not locate an English speaking guide. So we took the Spanish speaker and it worked out very well. Angie was phenomenal and the street food was outstanding - arepas, fruit, ceviche, chorizo and beer. What's not to love!

Scam! Never refunded the whole amount i paid. - I paid the whole amount 55$ and they cancelled because they said there is not enough people for the english tour. they said they will let me join the Spanish group and i agreed. They still cancelled the spanish because they said there is not enough people for the food group tour. NEVER REFUNDED THE 55$ even though i reminded them 3x in a span of 3 months!!!!! WHAT A SCAM!!!!!
