One day in Catagena - John is the best tour guide ever! Hands down! He listened to what I wanted for the day, and I had such a great time hanging out with him. It was the most fabulous day spent on a tour in years 💜This is THE tour guide of Cartagena!

An experience worth a life time - What a great experience from start to finish! John is an excellent tour guide and caters the tour to your interest. If you prefer night life then that what you’d get, or if you’re like me and prefer local experiences then he’ll adjust. He also caters to your time requirements. (I’m an early riser and go to bed early). I got to explore tourist attractions but also unique places like Turbaco and a botanic garden.I even got to bathe in a geo thermal pit which was great for the skin. I explored two cities within Colombia and this was by far my favorite experience. I will be coming back here. If you do any tour this is the one. I had experiences that I’ll remember for the rest of my life.
