Ask for Carlos! - Carlos L. was an excellent tour guide and I would definitely recommend him to others. He was really fun and had a lot of historical knowledge to share. You can tell he has done a lot of research and cares a lot about Barranquilla.

highly recommended - I booked this tour and the attention was incredible. Barranquilla is a place worth knowing and even more so if they provide you with the best guidance and transportation service, as was the case in my experience.

All very chevere - I fell in love with Barranquilla and Colombia, the only risk is that you want to stay, all people are so friendly and make you feel safe and welcome. I was very satisfied with this service, we were assigned a Guide with a lot of knowledge and always willing to answer all the questions and go further.

Great experience - One of the best tours I have booked, very complete, I was able to understand many things about the culture of Barranquilla and its history, the guide was very kind, punctual, patient and had a lot of knowledge, it was a very pleasant tour and they always made me feel very comfortable. The architecture around el Paseo Bolívar was very nice, and the gastronomic experience was very good, I totally recommend it.

A Personal Experience - To have this personal experience was an enlightening opportunity to learn and see aspects of another culture and its people. My guide (Victor) couldn’t have done a better job in showing me Colombia. It’s one I’ll never forget and forever grateful for this experience .

Recommended for everyone - A practical tour that helps you to know those places that you want and sometimes do not reach. You can visit places quickly or give yourself the time, depending on what you want.

Awesome barranquilla - Samy, our guide was awesome as well as the driver Jairo. We visited some real cool spots and took some amazing photos. Even though it was very hot, Samy made sure we were comfortable and hydrated. The malecon and window to the world monuments were great. Will do this tour again

Keep looking: This tour is not worth the price - The tour guide was pleasant. I would not call this a 6H tour of Barranquilla City unless it also includes the travel. The tour did not seem well thought out. I visited more places on a bike tour for $35 USD than this Gran Colombia Tour for $82 USD. That would be what I recommend if you want to get a good sweat. I paid nearly $300 USD for two tours for two people with Gran Colombia Tour and feel like I just made a donation for a bad tour. For anyone who is crazy enough to do this tour I recommend that you give them a list of places and things you want to see. For example: Paraiso DEL Artesano, Plaza de San Nicolás, Catedral Metropolitana María Reina de Barranquilla, Plaza De La Paz, Museo Mapuka, Shakira statue, Plaza de la Aduana, Barrio Abajo, etc.
