Traveler reviews
Fantastic tour
Chris is a great tour guide, showed up early and prepared, spotted capuchin and howler monkeys which he showed us, as well as !!!poison dart frog!!!, indigenous tribe, plus crabs, water fowl, and beautiful beaches, a fantastic day we’ll always remember!
Lots of animals
Very nice experience, we saw a lot of animals thanks yo our guide Martin. The hike was not too hard, but its very hot in the jungle so be prepared to sweat! The beach in San Juan is a little crowded but the refreshing is welcomed!
Choose another provider
We had ordered and paid for 5 adults with private guide and pickup. The order was made 8 months in advance. Still, the evening before our trip came a message that they only had a car for four people, and they asked us to confirm that this was OK!! Really incredibly bad service, and we sat there the night before and became doubtful if our trip could even be done. We in no way accepted this, and they ended up sending a big car, but we got no excuse or compensation. I would not book through them another time.
A Guide That Really Knows Tayrona
Loved this tour. Our guide knew everything about Tayrona. Stunningly beautiful hike thru natural areas and Juan explained it all & answered all our questions. Pointed out animals that he was skilled to see since he’s been there so much. We were so privileged & appreciate his knowledge of this area.
Great experience!
We had an excellent time. The weather was perfect, and our guide Christian Carvajalino, was very knowledgeable and made the hiking time pass very quickly. It was amazing to see the wildlife, especially the monkeys, as well as the native tribes in the park. We definitely recommend this trip!
