We did the tour of the 5 islands as proposed by the local tour operators... Wonderful places, but you have to be very careful in payments....ae you pay with cards from the total of the account add you in 15 % of which you do not even know, so look at the terminal where you place the card Second thing I was added the 80 out of 240 service, which seems absurd So be very careful in the and agreed before aquaistare to avoid surprises I clarify that after inquiring about the scam that I took.... the service is optional, in the sense that you must not accept the proposed one, but to give what you want
Excellent tour

The trip was very good. Guide Ana was very attentive. The trip starts with pickup at one of the 3 bus points and then drive 2 hours to Baru beach. There you take a 5 minute boat until you reach the umbrellas and place where you will spend the 4.5 hours. Lunch was delicious and there were several optional extra services at an additional cost. I would recommend it to people looking to relax on the beach for a day.
Nice beach day

90- minute bus to and from a teal-water beach. History and cultural context of Cartagena and Playa Blanca along the route. Great lunch and some fruit included! Recommend for a non-party beach atmosphere. Do not recommend to anyone who gets bus sick as it is a bumpy ride.
Great Family Tour

We took our 4 year old and mother in law to this tour and it was perfect. They picked us up and took an 1.5 drive to the beach then a short boat ride. The beach was clean and the water was perfect. The lunch (fried fish) was soo yummy!!! Yes, the vendors are a little annoying because they are relentless, not sure there is much you can do about it . However, the overall experience for us was well worth it!!

Hands down, I had a great experience. First off, I want to shout out Karina, who was an amazing tour guide. She shared with me interesting facts about Cartagena and its beautiful history to our way to the beach. She was very friendly and accommodating. Secondly, shout out to our driver Felipe. He was so kind and pretty funny too. I was the only one on the tour so I had a great time with both of them.
Very enjoyable and welcoming, thanks Colombia and thanks to our guide karina

Long trip from Cartegena central. About 1.5 hours by bus. Paid for the trip + 2 chaise lounges, table and 1 chair + umbrella. Guide was fantastic. Took great care of us. There were some vendors, but not overwhelmingly so. Lunch was great, but typical (fish/mojarra or chicken, coconut rice, pantacones). We had to take a bus, then boat to the tranquil beach. Overall, I would fo it again...but with Karina as our guide.
