Traveler reviews
History and exploration of the city
Great city tour. Excellent guide! Everything noted when booked was provided during the tour. If you are a history buff or just want to learn more about the city then I highly recommend this tour.
An informative and very enjoyable day
It was an excellent day! Our guide Andres was a very professional; and entertaining person. He was able to answer all our questions. We enjoyed our walking trip around the old town and the ride to the Quinta where Bolivar died, which also allowed us to see some different areas of the city, A nice combination of actiities. We also really enjoyed our driver Joel and he was good enough to return my glasses which I had left in the car. PS We paid extra for a private tour - very worthwhile
wonderful
I would always return to Santa Marta; it is a wonderful destination, the historic center is very beautiful, walking along the boardwalk, reaching the marina, and undoubtedly Tayrona Park is a must-see, as well as going to Taganga, which is also a must.
Don't miss this circuit!
Excellent historical circuit!, punctual and professional. In my case, the guide was Nicole , a young tourism professional who relates the facts faithfully. You notice his passion for what he does as well as his knowledge and warmth! I highly recommend!
Great tour, bring water, sneakers and cash
Loved the experience! Our guide Andres was super knowledgeable and kind to us at all times. Would’ve liked if there was something planned for el parque the los novios Main Street not just a walk through it (maybe a stop for a local drink or snack) but other than that everything went flawlessly, would definitely rebook with them for the next visit!
