Awesome views - We got there 10 mins before they show up to the first stop. Book the tickets on a Sunday since is not that busy when it comes to traffic. Enjoy the description they had on the bus. English, Spanish and Portuguese. The tour guide was very informative. Didn’t come off from bus, stayed on the second floor and were able to take pictures from every angle. Love it!!

Seeing and Learning about Cartagena, Columbia - Rosey was the lead tour Guide and was very good and very knowledgeable. We had a small group in the walking tour of the walled city and there were three people helping keep everyone together and looking after us. “They took very good care of us!” They insured everyone saw and did what they wanted. They were on a time schedule but also very flexible. I would highly recommend using this tourist company!

Good service, and the best thing is that they are punctual and you can get on and off the bus as many times as you want. - Interesting activity. If you have a “dead” time it is a good option. You have the possibility of getting on and off the bus as many times as you want and doing the tour at your own pace. They have headphones with different languages. I recommend going on the upper floor since the breeze makes it more pleasant.

Worth it!!! - Staff was friendly, one of the buses was late but that is to be expected since the city traffic is so busy. Nice experience

Useful but - Useful for locating places and finding your way around the city. But the ticket valid for two days, so until midnight but the buses only running until 7 p.m. is a bit of a lie. But allows you to identify beaches in the City for hot weather

Honest opinion. - Booked thru cruise. Pickup was on the dock. Be aware cartagena is always hot and humid. No ac or fans on bus. Traffic is stop and go with alot of speed bumps, snaking the entire route. While on the walking tour the vendors will not leave you alone and will follow you the entire time. Alot of waiting on board the bus till its full enough to leave breathing in auto fumes. Tour employees are very sweet and hard working. Cartagena is pretty and would have been cool to see otherwise.

Not a good experience - We waited almost an hour for the first bus of the day. The tour itself had minimal commentary. Most of the stops were in the hotel/apartment/retail zone. Cartagena just isn't laid out for an informative bus tour. Better to just do a walking tour in the old city (where buses can't go) and take an Uber to San Felipe Castle if you want to go there. Definitely our worst hop on, hop of your among the people in our group.

Worse than a fast trip through hell - Confusing schedules. They mix private cruise buses with ones open to the public and you have to suddenly get off in the strangest places and wait for the next bus if it comes and they let you on. Each stop swarms with hawkers and it's always hot and annoying. We quit the tour early. Just take an Uber to what you want to see.
