Mejores Cursos Buceo Profesional Cartagena Cerca De Mi, Abren Hoy

Nicole Burson: This was our first time ever scuba diving and we had an incredible experience. Santiago spoke English to us and made us feel very comfortable and safe the whole time. The company really looks out for the environment! They gave us fruit and water and snacks in between dives. We saw squid, puffer fish, and many more kinda of fish next to corals and shipwrecks. Thank you, Santiago and crew!

Magdalena Quirno Lavalle: Excelente experiencia de buceo! Álvaro nos acompañó con mucha amabilidad y su gran experiencia como buzo PADI. Muy recomendable, ojalá podamos volver pronto!

John Edison Muñoz Cardona: Great place to get your PADI certificates. The location is very convenient, I did my training with Alvaro, a very patient and friendly guy that helped us through the diving process. They were very attentive at the beginning with the theoretical lessons, always making sure you completed all the requirements. The only aspect for improving is the social media since the communication was a bit rude at the beginning, probably without intention, but could be missinterpreted.

Nuria Arnaiz: Puntuales al recogerme en el puerto de mi hotel, el equipo rentado en muy buen estado y los DM con buen manejo de grupo.Juan, quien coordina las reservas, muy atento.

Cat: First scuba diving experience and couldn’t have asked more a more professional, friendly and knowledgeable staff. I was able to practice in the pool a day before with our Scuba Instructor Alvaro which made me feel more comfortable. Highly recommend this team. Easy payment, prompt communication, Spanish and English speaking. And the pictures/short video clips of us diving came out wonderful. Truly a great experience!

Joe Giacomet: Had a great dive with them, Albert was our dive master. Would recommend.

Felix Enescu: Did a two dive trip in January and all was ok.Equipment was in good condition and worked perfectly, dive master was professional and handled everything very well.Boat was ok, water and fruit were served between dives.I was in a group with only one another certified diver and dive master. All the groups on the boat were small and set according to experience.Special thanks to my dive master, when we finished my first dive, I still had a lot of air (other diver was a big air consumer) so the dive master went only with me for another shorter dive ( about 20 minutes). Of course we end the dive above safety level at 600 psi.

Juan Felipe Lopez Sierra: Muy profesionales, buceo con hijos pequeños y van muy acompañados

Victoria Var-Heibak: Had a great time! I hadn’t been in a year so I was a little nervous and rusty but they made me feel super comfortable and the dive experience itself was gorgeous.

Sergio Alejandro Mejía Orrego: Muy buena experiencia, me certifiqué hace unos meses, volví a bucear con Buzos de Barú, espero seguirlo haciendo e ir por los siguientes niveles de certificación. Muy buenos instructores y lugares de buceo.GRACIAS

Jason Herzfeld: Buzos de Barú was very helpful in organizing our group and making sure we all had a safe and fun time! Very easygoing bunch with good fresh fruit on board, as well as great pictures!

Gabriel Matei: Great experience, 2 dives with pictures and videos included for a really good price and the areas are full with fishes, corals, even a boat! I definitely recommend them for someone who's not certified because they are taking care of you✌️✌️✌️

Camila Sirolli: Una experiencia inolvidable! Muy buenos profesionales, muchas gracias por el acompañamiento en mi primer buceo! Ojalá pueda volver!Los mejores de Cartagena, aguante Buzos de Baru! Super equipado todo. Gracias por la buena onda, saludos de Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷Ah y las fotos una locura! Gracias a mi instructor Eduardo por capturar hermosos momentos 📸📽️🌊

Nigel Bouckley: This is a five star resort for a reason. All the staff are very friendly, knowledgeable and profesional in their conduct of training. Safety is important to them and during my last two courses with them I felt safe and assured that they were looking after my welfare.The dive sights were interesting and varied and they catered for the abilities of those on the boat, often having several instructors / guides leading the various groups.My instructor for the week was Santiago, who spoke very good English as well as being a good communicator under water.I will definitely be back this year for more dives and learning - thank you all.

Alexandra M Solano Reyes: Me atrevería a decir que Buzos de Barú son el centro de buceo más completo en Cartagena. La atención antes, durante y después de la experiencia es excelente. Son mi centro de buceo de confianza en Cartagena. ¡Gracias por todo! 💙🧜‍♀️

M Masry: Some of the best diving I had in years.Staff is great, boat is clean, and a sublime operation. I have been diving for 35 years and teaching for 25, I would not do it any better. Thank you very much.

Danielle Osfalg: I really enjoyed and had a great time with this company. First of all, the owner Juan made it so easy to sign up and all the paper work etc was easily accessible via internet. He and staff was also kind enough to pick me up from a boat I was on and bring me back because we had a dinghy problem. The dive masters were extremely helpful and friendly and spoke English and took very good care of us before, during and after our diving experience. The most important was the safety of each person and and they observed and paid good attention to everyone s needs. We did 2 dives at the island of Baru (which was a short distance from Cartagena from Nautica Marina ) and both were very different and interesting. First one was a lot of marine life, fish , corals etc but the second one was even more interesting with the addition of a sunken shipwreck and some cool objects covered in barnacles ( which i don’t want to give details so not to spoil the surprise) . On top of that i did not have a camera and my divemaster not only guiding us thru and paying attention to safety but also made the day unforgettable with the beautiful pictures he took of us during our dive session ( which i will share some here and THANKYOU again! You rock! 🤘🐬😘).So from my point of view I highly recommend Juan and the scuba team . Thank you guys!! I hope to visit Cartagena and find you again for some more fun diving adventures! Till then..

Franco Chirizzi: Excelente lugar para hacer buceo. El entrenamiento previo y el acompañamiento son de 10

Daniel Soba: La atención de todo el equipo fue impecable.Hice un Refresh porque hacía 2 años que no Buceaba. Desde Juan que me resolvió enseguida un problema que tuve con la tarjeta de crédito hasta Santiago el Instructor que fue excelente, siempre atento a todo.Muy recomendable

Ronald Pichler: Very profesional crew and divemaster. Good english. Well run organization

Maria Gaviria: ¡Lo pasé genial buceando por primera vez! Todos los instructores me ayudaron mucho durante esta experiencia. Con la ayuda especial de Juan, instructor principal de mi mini curso. Juan hizo un excelente trabajo al guiarme a través de la compensación, asegurándose de que me sintiera cómodo y se aseguró de que mi grupo entendiera todas las estrategias de clavado. Los instructores Andrés y Junior también fueron de gran ayuda a lo largo de este viaje y me ayudaron con mi equipo. ¡Gracias por una experiencia increíble!

Katie Tughushi: ¡Un equipo increíble! 😊 ¡Todos son súper solidarios y comprensivos! Fue mi primera experiencia de buceo y su profesionalismo fue una de las principales razones por las que me sentí tan tranquilo.¡Un agradecimiento especial a Juan, que fue mi instructor y me hizo sentir seguro durante toda la aventura! 😊

Anna Arutyunova: ¡Fue una gran experiencia! Recibimos un muy buen entrenamiento en la piscina antes de sumergirnos en el mar, las vistas eran hermosas: peces grandes, arrecifes de coral, ¡como wooow! ¡Y el equipo fue tan agradable y amable! ¡Incluso nos tomaron fotos geniales! Sin embargo, me asusté mucho en un momento. Mucha agua entró en mis vasos y no pude ver nada. Así que tuve que subir a la superficie desde el fondo. Honestamente, estaba muy asustado cuando sucedió porque está prohibido moverse hacia arriba o hacia abajo rápidamente, pero no pude controlar eso cuando sucedió. Ojalá alguien me ayudara en ese momento 🙏

Ximena Tagle Casapía: ¡¡ASOMBROSO!! No tengo suficientes palabras para describir mi experiencia con ellos. Viajé sola a las islas del Rosario.Todo el personal fue extremadamente amable, me recogieron en mi hotel y me dejaron allí después. ¡Incluso tomaron fotos y videos durante la inmersión sin costos adicionales! (En otros países me han cobrado bastante, y por persona). Un agradecimiento especial a Junior por esto :)Las instrucciones estaban en inglés pero también Juan se tomó el tiempo de traducirlas al español y siempre asegurándose de que todos en el grupo las siguieran. Trabajan en grupos pequeños para que se sienta acogedor.Nos explicaron de antemano qué esperar y tuvieron la paciencia de mostrarnos la diversidad de los corales en el Parque Nacional Rosario.Algo que me encanta es que al bucear con ellos estamos contribuyendo a las iniciativas de conservación de los corales, promueven el ecoturismo trabajando directamente con las comunidades locales y son parte del programa de buceo adaptado para personas con discapacidad. ¡¡Muy recomendable!!

Sabyn Maude: ¡Mi amigo y yo obtuvimos nuestra licencia de aguas abiertas! Una experiencia tan buena, los instructores fueron muy serviciales y pasamos el mejor momento. Son muy serviciales y hacen que todo sea muy sencillo. ¡¡¡Te lo recomiendo mucho!!!

Hubert Kettenberger: Vine aquí por un paquete de cinco inmersiones, incluida una inmersión nocturna. Todo estaba muy bien organizado, seguro y bien mantenido. El personal es relajado, servicial y los sitios de buceo cuentan con un conjunto diverso de criaturas marinas. El maestro de buceo Juan nos llevó a una emocionante inmersión nocturna y nos mostró muchos peces, crustáceos y el plancton bioluminiscente. Su naturaleza tranquila y competente hizo de esta una experiencia inolvidable.Dato adicional: parte del $$ se destina a un proyecto de Diving Planet para ofrecer buceo a personas discapacitadas como parte de su rehabilitación.

Anna Menacher: Increíble escuela de buceo. Hice el mini curso con Juan, quien me mostró todas las habilidades necesarias para mi primera inmersión en la piscina antes de dirigirme al lugar de buceo. Me sentí súper tranquilo con él como instructor y se aseguró de que mis primeras experiencias de buceo fueran geniales. Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar.

christian granados: La maxima esxperiencia buceando en Parque natural Islas del Rosario y Cartagena . y super la atencion de Staff

Raphael Jin: El programa de buceo es bueno y el mar es bonito. El acceso es mejor que en otras áreas. Sobre todo, descansé en una isla conectada con el resort en el medio, pero no había vendedores y lo pasé tranquilamente. El personal fue amable y agradable.Gracias por su amabilidad

Rogério Maggioni: Diving Planet é sensacional. Equipe atenciosa, equipamentos em excelentes condições, sítios de mergulho lindos. Mas não esqueça, você está indo para mergulhar, não para fazer turismo convencional. Então cabe dizer que todo foco da atenção está para a experiência embaixo d'água. Parabéns Diving Planet!!

felipe niño: Pretty amaizing experience. Comunication was perfect. Pick up was perfect travel to the island in order. The diving itself was amazing, we went to Isla Grande, not that many fish but hust seeing the corals was amazing, so many different shapes and colors are beautiful to see. The team and diving guide LEA was super friendly and very helpful. The island itself was so amazing to bad we couldnt stay there longer.

Octavio Arranz: Espectacular experiencia de buceo en las islas del Rosario. Seguridad, acompañamiento y conocimiento del lugar. Jorge, biólogo marino y buzo desde hace 30 años nos ha acompañado y ha sido una pasada. 100% recomendable

Kristen Nelson: I would highly recommend the 5-dive package if you have the time! All of the instructors were great as well as the dives all being something a little different and exciting. But the night dive was incredible! They pick you up and drop you off at your hotel and we were able to watch the sunset out on the water before the night dive. Such a cool experience that I would definitely do again!!

c brown: My Diving Planet divemaster lost me on the dive. This is one of the most serious failures of a dive master. As a result, I was floating in the ocean alone without anyone. I was unable to swim against the current. My life was in danger and I was very worried. In addition, my divemaster did not check my dive belt weights and I was not able to submerge. Our return boat ride back from the Rosario Islands to Cartagena was brutal. If you have a bad back, do NOT take this Rosario Islands dive or snorkel because the boat ride will exacerbate your back pain. While having the opportunity to drive in the wake of another boat to smooth out the ride, the boat driver did not do so.Booked through Cartagena Concierge. They will not help you.

Vesna Buntak: I did my open water course with this company. I have no words to describe how amazing the staff was, accommodating, friendly and kind. I do have to give a special shoutout to my instructor Lea who went above and beyond to teach me and make me feel comfortable under water. Amazing experience.p.s. I got the recommendation from a friend that dived here like 10 years ago :)

Joanna Karasiewicz: Una experiencia maravillosa. Un plan de 4 buceos en 2 días en 4 puntos de las islas del rosario diferentes. El equipo de 10! Desde la atención de Andrés en Cartagena y los chicos en la isla grande - Andrés, Delio, Juan han hecho que estos días fueron tan geniales. Un centro moderno, con buenos equipos y mejores profesionales.

Kim Uittenbosch: We chose a 5 dive package on the Rosario Islands and we really enjoyed it. Very professional run dive outfit with good rental equipment. The boats were big and comfortable. We especially liked the night dive in which we saw a Spanish Slipper Lobster.

Dan Wick: The entire day was a wonderful experience. Andres and his entire team were professional and very focused on each person being taken care of. Very thing was well organized and the staff were attentive to everyone’s needs. The diving was great. They took us to beautiful sites, the equipment was very good and the groups were small so everyone received attention. There was good and personal attention to every detail from registration to return. It was a complete day and not just a couple dives. We highly recommend Diving Planet and look forward to going again.

John McA: I had an absolutely fantastic day diving with Diving Planet Cartagena. You need to do this. I entered their office and booked a day of scuba diving for the following day. The employees were very helpful and informative. English was spoken. Later that evening I received a message letting know where we were to meet.It took about 1 hour to take their boat from Cartagena to their resort on the Rosario Islands. There we received our gear and a talk about our day ahead. The gear was new. My bc and mask worked great. Our two dives averaged 12-15 meters depth and approxately 40 minutes each. We drifted one reef and circled a second reef. Plenty of fish to be seen. My dive master Leia was knowledgeable and attentive.They served a wonderful lunch afterwards at the resort. Very tasty with a choice for vegetarians/vegans too.If I had the time I'd have gone the next day too.

jesse (Mulligan) kemp: Had a great private trip to Isla Rosario, 3 divers with Rawr and 4 snorkeling with Leia, great reviews all around with good professionalism and friendly services, would recommend.

Ronald Ivan Munoz Gonzalez: Excelente servicio, conocen muy bien los mejores sitios para bucear según tu experticia, cuentas con todo lo necesario oportunamente y con el mejor servicio. Recomendado.

Dylan Sirgiovanni: I had an awesome time getting my Advanced Certification here. It was a while since I did my Open Water, but my instructors were very professional and got me back up to speed very quickly. I highly recommend if you want to scuba while you are in Cartagena!

johzuca Sun: Fue quizás una de mis mejores experiencias, excelente atención por parte de Alberto, y nuestro buzo Santiago siempre estuvo con la mayor disposición, en cuanto a precios, de todas las empresas de buceo fue la más accesible, quedamos fascinados, realmente lo recomiendo, mi calificación es 10/10, realizamos la actividad en octubre 2021.

Darren Dixson: Alberto was an amazing instructor! I did my Rescue Diver course with him. He was patient, knowledgeable and took the time to explain things to me so it was very clear. I’ve been diving with a lot of dive companies and this one is definitely on the top of my list. The shop was a little hard to find, but a message on whatsapp got a very quick response. I had went and met with 2 other dive shops in Cartagena prior to visiting this one. Alberto was the one that personally met me and explained the course I was about to take. When looking for a dive shop I always ensure that the company is professional and that safety is a top priority. I would definitely recommend this company to anybody, whether it’s a new diver looking to get certified or an experienced diver looking for a great shop. Thank you Alberto!!

Katarzyna Dolewska: Super centre de plongée à Carthagene ! Equipe et matériel au top ! Premiere plongée dans une épave et deuxième le long des coraux.Merci pour l'accueil c'était génial !!!

Ricardo Fajardo Martínez: Excelente instructor y formación de los cursos

Carolina Judkowicz: Communication with the company was sub-par throughout the entire process. When booking my dive, they forgot to send me a confirmation email. I waited 3 days and had to send them an email to ask if I was still going dive with them. After my message, I finally received confirmation of my dive.At the marina, I waited until 10 minutes after my dive was meant to start but no one from the company was there. I called them and turns out that Diving & Adventure Cartagena had lost my reservation. The man on the other end was apologetic but firm that I would not be able to dive with them that day. At that point, there were no other dives starting that late in the morning (8:30ish am) so I could not dive that day. I was offered a small discount for a future dive, but chose not to engage with the company any further. I am extremely disappointed with Diving & Adventure Cartagena

Simon Schacht: Very nice diving trip to the island of Baru (30 minutes by boat away). Meeting with Alberto (PADI Certified instructor) took place at the harbor and we went directly to the boat. Alberto and his captain are well organized, friendly and have made us feel good. After each dive there were fruits and / or snacks with drinks provided. I highly recommend this diving place - great equipment with an excellent instructor.

luisa suren: Just returned from two dives with Alberto - I can only recommend to go dive with him! Super organized, responsive, relaxed and friendly! We enjoyed diving with him a lot and I can only recommend to go dive with him! Thank you for the great trip!!

Angélique Mercier: Une sortie plongée à Baru inoubliable, et qui en vaut le détour. On a pu plongée à deux reprises pour voir une première fois des épaves et une deuxième fois les coraux. Une super expérience, une équipe à l'écoute et au top, merci à Alberto et surtout Edgar qui a su me rassurer lors de la première plongée !! Merci 😍

Lorenz Haubner: Small school with small groups and very good equipment! Unlike other providers in Cartagena they are very responsive and welcoming. They did not insist an advance payment which is not typical for Colombia and speaks for them being confident in their quality. The dive sites are in Baru and had really nice wrecks (!) and beautiful corrals. If you plan on diving in Cartagena do it with them!

Camila Sierra: super experiencia vale la pena ir a bucear con ellos, los sitios escogidos son muy lindos y el instructor es muy bueno

Briston Trapp: I had two great dives out of Cartagena. One dive was a wreck dive and the other was a corral slope. The commication with the booking and info leading up to the dive was great. He was very knowledgeable and safe. The gear was very nice. I choose this dive shop because they had a smaller boat (which was very nice and had plenty of room) that only carries a small group of divers. I don't like diving with large groups that. Based off my experience I bet their classes are great.

maria sierra: Servicio excelente, Alberto es un muy buen instructor, muy paciente , bucear con diving and adventure ha sido una de mis mejores experiencias de buceo en colombia.

Eric Gence: Excellent moment with alberto (he's very Nice and patient) for 2 dives in isla baru.We were just my girlfriend who had already done different initiations before but is not certified, me( certified) and alberto!So Lucky !!!1st one with corals 2nd with 3 wreckships and the subaquatico museo!Excellent équipement!Not so expensive (280k non certified, 250k certified)Departure 8 am from the marina.30 minutes boat To baru.1st dive on corals.pause snack juice etc2nd dive on shipwreck and close to the subacatic muséum.Then snack again and back to marina at 12.30!Everything was perfect (even if i ate an apple from france instead of "colombian piňa" for example😂)Thanks alberto!Maybe some photos or videos of the dives could be nice😎)

Alberto Sierra: excelent service and profesional atention!

Jason Turner: Todo fue absolutamente increíble. Obtuve mi certificación de aguas abiertas y me encantó cada minuto. El personal era muy eficiente, paciente y divertido. El agua tibia y clara estaba llena de hermosos corales e innumerables peces de colores. Hicieron que la recogida y devolución en Cartagena fuera fácil y conveniente. Todo el equipo estaba en excelentes condiciones y el personal siempre estaba sonriendo. La isla desde la que buceamos tenía 4 pueblitos y un antiguo castillo que también merecen una visita. No hubo tarifas ocultas ni intentos de obtener más dinero. Después de intentar pasar primero por otra compañía, no puedo recomendarlos lo suficiente. ¡Una de mis experiencias favoritas en Colombia!

Charlotte Clarke: ¡Tuve un gran día, la inmersión en el naufragio fue genial!

Katja Rissmann: ¡Recomiendo encarecidamente bucear con Paraiso Dive! Nos pusimos en contacto con ellos en el último minuto y José respondió rápidamente y pudo organizar el tour de descubrimiento de buceo con nosotros para la mañana siguiente. El barco sale del Muelle de Cartagena y nos llevó unos 25 minutos hasta el Blue Apple donde hicimos un poco de teoría para prepararnos para la inmersión. Nos sumergimos dos veces en diferentes lugares y José y su equipo fueron geniales. No podría haber pedido un mejor apoyo. Los lugares de buceo son hermosos y, en general, fue una experiencia única.

Anne: Equipo encantador, hermoso sitio de buceo y gran ambiente, hicimos un viaje de apnea y buceamos con una tortuga, lo recomiendo encarecidamente 🐢👌

Mauricio Vargas: Atención personalizada y servicio de alta calidad.

Uwe Sandner: Excelente centro de buceo con equipo nuevo y barco cómodo. Equipo encantador y agradable

Dominique Läser: ¡Nos encantó nuestra experiencia con ellos! Soy un buceador avanzado certificado, mientras que mi compañero hizo su primera inmersión de descubrimiento con ellos.Para mi compañero: ponen mucho énfasis en la seguridad y en hacer que se sienta cómodo con el equipo, asegurándose también de que se sienta lo suficientemente cómodo y pueda descubrir el placer de bucear mientras ahorra por completo. (Me uní a su sesión para que se sintiera más cómodo y tengo que decir que se hizo de manera increíble). Si bien antes estaba muy aprensivo, ¡realmente quiere hacer sus aguas abiertas ahora! ¡Un gran agradecimiento por esto a Chris!Hice mis inmersiones (4 en total) con Junior y me divertí mucho. Hicimos naufragios, diferentes arrecifes y al final también algo de pesca submarina de los invasores peces león (tienen que deshacerse de ellos). ¡Durante todo el tiempo me sentí súper seguro y podías sentir que entienden lo que están haciendo!Si estás en Cartagena o terra bomba, ¡esta es tu escuela de buceo!

Kathleen Keating: Cannot recommend diving with this company enough. This was our second dive day in Cartagena and wish we would have have done both days with Paraiso instead of the bigger company.José was an INCREDIBLE guide. He was great at communication leading up to our visit, making sure the experience was tailored to our interest, abilities, and confidence levels (as relatively new certified divers). The sites we went to were amazing and truly unforgettable. We were in Cartagena for a week and this was our favorite day by far.Also, the beach club was so nice! We loved hanging out there after the dives. Great food, drinks, and vibes.

Eli Lee: Big thanks to Junior, José, Lea, Kili and el Capitán!I did my open water course with Paraíso Dive Cartagena and absolutely loved it.Safety and professionalism all while having lot's of fun.¡Muchísimas gracias y hasta la próxima!

Kato Kenis: Probably the only trustworthy tourist organisation in Cartagena.

Kuei-Chiu Chen: My family and I visited Cartagena in July 2022. We first used the service of boat and guide from Paraiso Dive for offshore snorkeling. The dive master Lea was so good, showing us a few nice areas and attentive to safety at all times we felt we should continue with her for scuba dives (we are certified). In our first scuba dive it was a lovely sight to see a lot of garden eels protruding out of the sandy substrate like sea grass. The wrecks made up of at least five sunken ships were home to diverse species of fish, coral, and sponges. Our second dive focused on a vast area of healthy coral reefs with sea lilies. We saw damsel fish, parrot fish, butterflyfish, sting rays, a seahorse, a school of cuttlefish, and many more. After the dives we rested at Blue Apple Beach House for drinks and food and a quick wash-up before heading back to the marina. The services were great and the operation from this shop was safe. We would use them again for our future trips.

Ine Adam: I reached out very last minute if they still had a spot for me to dive and I got a super fast reply. Great communication, great bilingual guide (not everybody speaks Spanish so this was a huge relief). Excellent gear, great dive at fair price, with attention for the environment and overall good vibe. Highly recommend diving here!

Jason Griffin: We’ve dove a numerous different resorts and locations and diving here just felt different. The attention to detail in regards to our safety really resonated how poorly trained other facilities are. The team here led by Jota is top notch and the dive sites are beyond gorgeous. Reefs and wrecks were boasting with life and they were eager to show us their different species.After the dive we spent time at the Blue Apple which was a delight. Amazing food, great music, just a perfect spot to stop and reflect on the dives.Without a doubt would recommend this trip to experts or beginners. You won’t be disappointed.

Daniel Farah: Una experiencia increíble , muy bonitas vistas y los instructores muy amables y profesionales!

Karen Albicy: Très bonne expérience avec toute l'équipe. J'ai été choyée et accompagnée a merveille. Je conseille vivement. J'ai pu voir de très bon paysage et été charmée par l'intégralité de la prestation.Ca a été la meilleure journée de mon sejour a Cartagene.

Toh Gouttenoire: Fantastic 2 dives, on all points!To resume we prefer small, personalized and safe operation and it was exactly that!First Jota could accommodated us just the day before, as we've been diving with a different company a couple day before but wanted a shorter boat trip than to Isla Rosario, and his proposed dive in Isla de Baru was exactly what we wanted.He listened to our experiences and desires and combining with the conditions Jota offered to dive on some wrecks, Underwater Museum and then on a beautiful sand plus coral reef.We felt super safe all along, following all PADI's procedure, he was really active in finding and showing us wild life, lots of it! Lots of new sightings!Equipment in great condition, friendly team, the post dive in Blue apple was very welcomed, it's a beautiful place.We will definitely come back!

Bert Coppens: My girlfriend and I, both uncertified divers, had an amazing time during our 2 dives. The explanation beforehand was super clear and the instructors were patient and very helpful to make sure we knew all the techniques for a fun and safe dive.The dives took us to very beautiful underwater sceneries with plenty of beautiful fish and coral.

Delphine Meynial: Super expérience avec la team ! Nous étions un groupe de 5 personnes (3 certifiés et deux baptêmes) et avons tous adoré notre sortie avec Paraiso Dive : équipe au top, sortie en petits groupes (nous étions 6 en tout sur le bateau sans compter l'équipe encadrante).Gros + également : ils sont venus nous récupérer (et nous ont redéposé) en bateau directement à notre location.N'hésitez pas !

Thomas Swart: Had a great last minute dive with Eduardo. J was very easy to communicate with to get over to the resort from Cartagena! Would definitely dive with Paradiso again!

Gloria van Ouwerkerk: Paraiso Dive is a great diving school to get your PADI Open Water. The material en diving lessons are from good quality. The teacher will take her time (big credits to Esmeralda) and teaches you how to become a good diver and not just to get your PADI quickly. Because I was the only one this week who applied for the PADI OW Esmeralda was my personal instructor. You can practise and improve your starting diving skills.The theory is a e-learning. It will take a few hours to get through it, but it’s worth it. The theory is very useful for the lessons. Try to do it in between the first en second day of diving.When you choose this dive school you should be a little flexible. When there is an opportunity to dive the next day instead of the day after, f.e. Because of the weather or applications, you will be asked to changes your days. It was no problem for me and it will get you great dives.

David O Castillo: This was the highlight of our trip to Cartagena!!!! It was an amazing day full of perfect sun, food, good drinks, snorkeling history, and so much more.Jonathan and his team made sure we all had an Excellent day!!Jonathan has a well laid out itinerary, and almost all spots are quiet and private. This tour is a great way to make sure you’re getting a very safe and local experience. What a great time we had.You can tell Jonathan loves what he does. Also his english is amazing since he lived in the US as well so it made my girlfriend and I that much more comfortable!

Tenzin: This tour far exceeded my every expectation! if you are going to use anyone in Cartagena. This is your tour guide/the company you want to use. We did the boat tour of the Islas del Rosario. It was amazing. We did snorkeling, learned a bit of history, ate some local cuisine, stop by few different island for food and fun. Jonathan was an amazing host. He speaks fluent English and knows the area very well. He loves what he does and it shows how well he treats his guest. I mean 5 stars on all reviews. He must be doing something right.I will recommend this company to any of my family and friends.

Evelyn Schwartz: Jonathan's boat tour is the best. What sets this tour apart from other tours I've experienced is Jonathan's attention to detail. He has everything perfectly organized for all of the activities throughout the day. His professionalism and passion for what he does shows through each thoughtful event of the day from snorkeling, to the local food and drinks provided. Also, Jonathan supports the local community, so by touring with him you are also contributing to the local Colombian community.

Ambar Martinez: This adventure was one of a kind. Jonathan is so experienced in this. He works very closely to the locals to ensure that we get an authentic experience. It was my birthday and they made it very special.We stopped at three islands. At the beginning of the tour he told us about the ports and their importance to history, Colombia could’ve been colonized by The British! Rosario Island (arepas were fire), Crystal Beach(for their crystal clear waters) and Cholon (party island).Would do it again!!!!!

Timo de Joode: It is really Worth the money 🤩.Jonathan is really a good guide for a perfect day Rosario Island hopping. He takes care of everything, he knows a lot about the environment, he makes sure everybody is ok and happy, he is flexible, speaks perfect English and we felt we were in goods hands. A very nice and fast boat, good snorkel gear, food is delicious. We (family;55-51-19-18 yrs ) enjoyed it a lot. Send him our regards if you speak him and enjoy your day at the Sea with him.

RAFAEL EDUARDO PARRA VARGAS: Excelente servicio, excelente atención, excelente asesoría y excelente acompañamiento. Recomendado 100% y gracias a la ayuda de Jonathan. Su amabilidad y humanidad hicieron mucho más agradable y acogedora la estadía en la ciudad de Cartagena.

Christian Smit: Amazing experience, professional, reliable and great fun!

Mirjam Muller: Super fijne dag gehad met Jonathan! Hij weet veel te vertellen over de geschiedenis van Colombia en zorgt er echt voor dat je aan niets ontbreekt.

Jacqueline Bibo: We hebben met 9 personen een fantastische dag gehad naar de Rosario eilanden. Jonathan was ons aanspreekpunt en hij heeft alles top geregeld.

Natasja Kluit: Wat en leuke dag gehad. Super boottocht, met leuke stops bij verschillende eilandjes. Jonathan is erg vriendelijk. En had alles tot op de puntjes verzorgd.

Sabella Delgado: Magnifique tour to the Rosario Isles. Jonathan is a great tourguide, speaks English and of course Spanish😉. Everything was very well organised from the beginning till the end! Food & water included, after pick up he makes a stop a the supermarket, so you can decide what your willing to drink and eat. This tour will never get bored, next time for sure i'll book him again!! Unforgetable day 😁

Emile Mathlener: Had an awesome day with Jonathan to the the Rosario islands.Swift responses to inquiries, accurate and polite communication. Sticks to what was agreed upon and is very punctual.The trip itself was well put together. No rush and flexible if the group wanted to stay at one place longer than the other.I can highly recommend having Jonathan put together a relaxing day for your travel in the Cartagena area.

Suzanne Presser: We had a great day with our guide Jonathan! Everything well organized! Nice to hear something of the history, Nice boat, good food!

Inge de Vries: Perfect guidePerfect dayI’ve a lot of experience traveling and Jonathan is one of the best guides!

kiwami livingston: From the moment we landed, Jonathan took care of me and my group with the most impressive attention to detial. From arranging transportation to getting us on a boat with less than a days notice! (We spontaneously wanted to go). I highly recommend their pub crawl because it also introduced us to incredible restaurants and bars. If I could give 6 stars if would. Pana tours is top of the class and highly recommended.

Rafael Jadoo: Pana tours Colombia made my first time in Colombia a memorable one. Our group didn’t have to worry about anything when arriving to Cartagena because our guide Jonathan had an attention to detail I’ve never encountered in a tour guide before. He took care of transportation, any parties we wanted, boat rentals, and advice on things to do. Also he found the most amazing house for us to rent in the best location after we let him know our price range and number of rooms. He made sure we tried many of the delicious dishes Cartagena had to offer and if there was a popular bar/club we wanted to go to, he made it happen. On top of that I should mention he made sure we were safe at all times. We had such a fun time and wasn’t stressed at all thanks to Pana Tours. Will love to return and use their services again.
