Beautiful day excursion - This was truly the BEST day! William, our guide, and Captain and first mate were perfect guides. Snorkeling was excellent, snacks and rest time on first island were terrific and then we went to second island and had a wonderful lunch. This has been our favorite excursion while in Cartagena. Don’t miss it!

AMAZING Day!! - What a great day! So well organized. Edward and the crew were such great hosts! The boats are big and well maintained and not over crowded. The sea does get rough and we felt safe the entire time. The first island is truly private it felt like a privilege to be welcomed. Also with such a fun experience everyone on the boat bonded quickly and we all became quick friends. The day was far more enjoyable than what I expected. We will absolutely do this activity again when we return and we will also ask for Edward because he’s just that good. Worth every penny!

Beautiful experience - We had a wonderful experience despite of the hiccup before we initiated our tour with a new tax fee that was implemented that day causing confusion our tour guide was clam through the whole process. Edward our tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional, he always made sure that we were taken care of. What I like the most about this tour was the private island we stop at. The staff there were great they made us feel like at home. The snack food was great too!An extra plus is not having deal with vendors when relaxing..I highly recommend this tour.

Fun day in the sun! Bring sunscreen! - It was a great tour - did some snorkeling and visited two islands. Very local and authentic island experience. Nothing fancy, but lots of fun and great food. About 15 people on a full tour with Half the boat covered from the sun and the other half not. Make sure to bring lots of sunscreen and a hat. If you get seasick, take medicine before. Would recommend.

Book It! A great time! - Incredible experience. Our tour was off to a rough start as there were new taxes imposed at the dock and we were told on the spot that we had to pay an additional $6-7 per person. We were delayed about 25 minutes while the port staff insisted our tour operators provide some additional documents before we could leave. We were worried we were going to have to go back and miss the tour but Eduardo our tour guide stayed calm through the entire experience reassuring us it would be fine and would all get sorted. After actually making it on the boat the experience immediately got 1000 times better. Eduardo and the additional guides were great and helped explain everything on our tour while ensuring our safety. We had the best time and honestly would do it again with this tour. It was a great experience and would recommend booking this if you plan to have a great time.
