Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Wendy had great energy and was very knowledgeable. With Wendy you get the feeling that your getting more information that you would from another guide and we loved that. So sweet and kind, book Wendy as fast as you can."
"Wendy is amazing! The food os delicious. The knowledge was amazing! Lots of eating! Lots of learning! Lots of fun! "
"Wendys is a fabulous guide, energetic, full of passion for her city, and is great at sharing this deep and interesting history with visitors. We loved our time with her, and seeing Cartagena through her eyes. "
"Andrea is the Perfect Guide. She presents a Multi- faceted Carthagena - the history, the Secret Spots and the shopping gems hidden away in small charming allies. She made our day perfect. Thank you! "
"Wendy was the perfect guide for Cartagena. She was incredibly knowledgeable, fun, and made the history of the city come alive. We explored the Walled City and Getsemaní, tried amazing food, and learned so much along the way. She truly made the experience special. If you’re visiting Cartagena, book a tour with Wendy—you won’t regret it!"
"We loved our tour with Andrea. She showed us all the best spots including the best coffee and restaurants in Cartagena. If you want to see or purchase something special, just ask her and she will know where to go. "
"Andrea was an absolutely outstanding guide. Her knowledge of Cartagena, its history and neighbourhoods was first class. Her pride in her city and country was most impressive and she packed an enormous amount of information in a three hour period. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and personable guide, Andrea is it. It was a delight to have met her - and she knows the best coffee house in the city!! "
"We had an amazing tour from Wendy! We tried so many delicious foods! We had so many Colombian treats, all were amazing and delicious. Wendy was a great host and made our visit to Colombia so delightful! I loved the opportunity to taste the local fruits that we had never seen! She was very receptive and responsive to what we wanted to try! Highest recommendation to anyone who wants to taste the flavors of Colombia!"
"My wife and I recently did the 3-Hour, 10-Foods Tour in Cartagena and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Karen, was outstanding — her knowledge of Cartagena and Colombia was incredible, and she shared so many interesting stories and insights along the way. The food tastings she selected were excellent and gave us a great variety of authentic local flavors. Every stop felt carefully chosen and really showed off the best of Cartagena’s food scene. The pace was perfect for a 3-hour tour, and we left full, happy, and feeling like we learned a lot about the city and its culture. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cartagena — and if you can, ask for Karen as your guide. It was a fantastic experience!"
"We booked the 3hr 10 tastings tour with Karen before we knew the weather forecast - torrential rain for 2 full days, totally flooded streets. Despite this Karen arrived full of smiles and positivity. We were treated to freshly baked jam filled breads (bakery was rammed out of the door but we went straight to the front), then freshly made (right in front of us) sweets. A 1mim walk to the next treat, Patacones, topped with big wedge of cheese. You MUST try in with the coriander sauce. Across the road, the street vendor pulled us up some chairs and we had a seafood cocktail. I don’t have enough space to describe all the delicious tastings but there were 10, including local beers in a very local setting. All the vendors were incredibly friendly and accommodating. But to compliment this Karen shared her vast knowledge of local culture and history, as a local herself. We wandered through several districts and two of the tastings were actually in people’s homes! I can’t stress enough how much this made what was a very wet and somewhat disappointing few days in Cartagena into a trip with wonderful memories. Thank you Karen you are clearly a foody and love your city, as now do we! Vikki & David"
