The shark - The guys came to pick us up at Bora Bora for a day trip fishing and it was amazing. The boat was big and we got around the island and caught a shark!!!! Unforgettable

Best team ever! - This was our first time in Cartagena and we wanted to go on a fishing trip and explore the islands. Our Airbnb host recommended Boats4u so our group of four booked the full day fishing trip and island tour. The trip was excellent! The Boats4u team emailed us the itinerary, time and location to meet and greeted us with breakfast. They supplied waters, some beer and juice for the ride. The water was pretty choppy, but the captain navigated us through very well. Our interpreter was fantastic and very kind. We stopped at multiple islands where we were able to swim, buy drinks and have lunch. In Baru we had a very good lunch at the Aura Hotel and even took a nap :) It was a very adventurous trip and worth every penny!

Returned our phone to US for us! - We went on a cruise at the end of December 2017 and visited Cartegena, Columbia and went on the Boats4u deep fishing tour. My husband left his phone on the private island that we stopped at and was not able to get it back in time before our cruise left the island. Thank goodness one of the staff on the island found it and called the person at the dock who informed us that they had our phone when we came back as we never even knew we lost it! Carlos, the owner, was very kind to hold it for us until someone he knew could fly it over as due to export issues he could not send it to us. We got the phone back in September 2018. My husband imagined this excursion to be like the deep sea fishing reeling in a big fish (like a blue marlin) on the back of a fairly large boat. This is not like that and the photo of the fish they have on the web site (as of this current review) I assume shows the type of fish you may catch. The one fish we did catch was pretty tiny and the boat we used was more like a speedboat which was a bit rocky navigating the huge waves. Anyone who gets seasick easily will probably get seasick. I took Dramamine and I still did not feel well. One of our passengers threw up 8 times during the entire excursion. The waves can be quite rocky and large and I was a bit scared being out on the deep sea alone with no other boat in sight. The 2 staff on the boat did not speak English so the communication was very difficult. We did not get the opportunity to fish ourselves as the fish were not really biting that day and the waves were so rocky. The staff tried to troll some regular fishing phone lines and ultimately only reeled in 1 fish. We had enough of the large waves so they took us to a calmer area (like a lake) where we were able to jump out and use noodles to relax in the water. Then we went to a private island where you have the option to pay for food and drinks and to sit in their chairs. You also have to pay to use their "bathroom" which is basically some port o potties. The highlight of the tour was seeing dolphins riding the waves next to us. It was wonderful to watch several of them enjoying the waves and keeping up with the boat! BTW we did not get picked up from our cruise boat. I don't know if that was an option when my husband booked this tour but we had to take a taxi both ways which was definitely inconvenient so it is good they now offer to provide transportation. Thank you again to Carlos, his Aunt Beatriz, and his trustworthy and honest staff especially for getting our phone back to us safe and sound! Wendy

A non fishing trip - We didn’t get a change to fish the boat crew just threw a line out without bait and used boat to drive around slow. It’s definitely not what I expected. Horrible fishing experience
