Best Horse Riding In Cartagena Near Me

Leah Hurl: Luis was amazing. Everything from planning our island trip a few days before to the actually trip was perfect. We loved the fact that it was private and could cater it to our needs. Absolutely loved seeing the plane and Isla grande!

Michael Tice: We stayed in Cartagena for 6 nights and did 3 tours with Alternative Travel. Our guide for two of them, Roberto Lopez, was absolutely fantastic! He was so personable and knowledgeable and truly made our experience memorable. We learned a lot about the art and history of the city and ate some of the best foods the city had to offer. The rum tasting was also fantastic and far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend this company!

Katie Fisken: Cartagena Connections is such a fantastic way to see the city and experience the local culture. Kristy is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in all aspects of the local community and that shines through on her tours! I attended the street food tour and I cannot recommend it enough! If you're wanting to dabble in street food and learn the local ways then this is the tour for you! More broadly Cartagena Connections is the one stop shop for info on all of the best spots in town!

Rosario Valdivia: What a picturesque city, the colonial center and strong colors, it seems that time has not passed.

Diego morelo: Una buena experiencia

Juan Carlos Marino: I took this tour in February 2023, the overall idea of the tour is good. Unfortunately we had to go on a boat called "Jamba" in which the captain was very irresponsible, the guy was going as fast as he could to the point that two girls got injured and two ambulances were called to take them out on stretchers (they could not walk or move). This captain was overtaking all the boats in the water, even boats that had left 15min before us. I complained about the speed to the tour guide Jose and he did not pay attention to me, 5 min later the boat hit a wave at high speed and the 20 passengers were on the air, three of them got injured and two are still receiving medical attention after 3 months.My points:- The tour guide was a nice guy, but does not understand about safety and does not have the authority to control the trip. This is is extremely risky for the tourists.- All 20 passengers were not asked to wear the lifejackets at any time of the trip, even when the captain was doing over 80Km/hr, an accident in this circumstances can be vary bad.- The two girls got injured 5 min after leaving Baru Island, the tour guide was sitting next to the girls, the trip took extra 50min to make it to Cartagena, the captain kept on speeding, the girls could not even move but had to stand the jumps of the boat and the tour guide did not ask the captain to reduce the speed at no time. I admire those two girls for enduring that trip with injured backs.- The trip from Baru to Cartagena takes 1.5 hours, we made it in 1 hour. No wonder how the girls got injured.- When the police and ambulance arrived, they asked what had happened to the girls and the captain laid about it and said the girls fell because they were standing (the girls were sitting at all time), the spanish speaking tourist denied this to the police and the captain just walked away and did not even help take the girls out of the boat.- In several opportunities the captain was doing over 80Km/hr and was looking backwards talking to the other crew man. SO IRRESPONSIBLE.The aim of my review is for Backpacker Cartagena be aware of the danger the tourists are under and not use this boat "Jamba" and its captain. An accident at these speeds can have very bad consequences and neither the tour guide nor the captain care about the wellbeing and safety of the turists.I am more than happy to send you pictures of the boat, the captain and the injured girls if this helps.As a service provider you have to understand that tourists pay to have a nice and relaxing time, not to put their lives in the hands of ignorant and careless people. In this case two girls are still receiving medical attention from injured backs and hopefully they can recover 100%.Para mis amigos espanol:A nosotros nos toco una barco que se llama "Jamba", el capitan abuso de la velocidad de la lancha, yendo a mas de 80Km/hr en mar con oleaje, por supuesto el barco choco contra una ola y dos turistas hireron sus espaldas, al punto que al llegar al puerto, tuvimos que llamar a dos ambulancias para que las sacaran en camillas. Tres meses despues las turistas aun no se han recuperado al 100%. El capitan trato de mentirle a las ambulancias y policias diciendo que las turistas estaban de pie y que por eso se hirieron, pero nosotros lo desmetimos y el capitan sencillamente se alejo y ni siquiera ayudo a bajar a las turistas de la lancha. 5 min antes del accidente, personalmente me queje de la velocidad con el guia del tour pero no me hizo caso. (para que se hagan una idea, el recorrido de 1.5 horas, lo hicimos en 1 hora. Pasbamos a todas las lanchas en el agua como si fuera una competencia)La idea del tour es buena, las islas son muy bellas. Pero si se topan con un capitan de estos, que quiere hacer el tour mas rapido para llegar mas rapido a su casa, poniendo en riesgo la seguridad de las personas, por favor quejense. Un accidente en estas condiciones puede ser muy grave.

Sebastien Reynaud: Avoid, loud music, poor service.

Zulany Esquivel: I loved it
