Great all day tour - It was fun!! The captain was great and so was our tour guide, Camillo. He was very knowledgeable and spoke great English! I wish we could’ve stayed a little longer at each island but it was still fun. We decided not to do the plankton because it is a little wait but it’s not bad if you’re actually prepared! The lunch they served was good.

Excellent tour! 😁

Girlfriends birthday getaway party of two - My friend and I traveled to Cartagena, Colombia to celebrate our birthdays January 18th through January 22nd. We prearranged all of our excursions with Maria. She was very thorough in explaining all of the excursions she offers for you to choose from and the details of the itinerary from morning pick up to the excursions of the day and finally the drop off in the afternoon each day. The speed boat was a lot of fun, exciting and invigorating if you love a good thrill!! The ocean breeze and sun felt amazing on our skin!! We spent adequate time at each of the five Islands with Cholon being our favorite!! We were provided lunch, which was included in the excursion package, snorkeling gear as well as the opportunity to visit the aquarium at an additional cost. If you love a good party speedboat vibe, with the latest Afrobeats, Hip Hop and Latino music then this excursion is for you!!

The Rosario Islands are a Paradise - I recommend this tour 100%
The guide was very special and very attentive to our needs. Bring your own drinks, the boat has a portable refrigerator.

Okay - The tour itself was just okay. I wish we spent more time in the Cholon, I feel like we wasted time and energy at other islands. They def rip you off so please bring cash!!!! They charge up to 25% at one island. The boat driver was so nice and just pushed through even when the waves got bad! Please be mindful and know how to say no.

Fun but beware of rough ride back & vendors - Our tour guide Luis was awesome! Lots of fun, always came with the tunes, and was looking out for us with all the vendors aggressively selling a variety of items at each stop. The downsides were the vendors and the ride back. Luis stayed with the people who were doing the plankton tour and the rest of us rode back on the speedboat but the ride was extremely bumpy and scary much different than when Luis was with us.

Normal - Our guides where really nice but I wouldn’t repeat this as I think one of the beaches is more like a party or toilet beach plus the prices of alcohol are extremely expensive , around 45 dollars one cocktail! And we are in Colombia! Crazy .
Love Rosario island and snorkelling, food was amazing too and to see the plancton first time was incredible amazing too.

Skip This One! - Our party arrived on time at 7:30 AM and waited over an hour for departure. Proper snorkeling gear not provided - bring your own. Cheap speaker on boat. Lunch venue over charged and servers gave themselves an unauthorized tip. Pay in cash to avoid this surprise. Guides shamed guests into giving tips. Very little communication and guides not knowledgeable about surrounding wildlife and history. Also, so many plastic straws used and dumped into the ocean on this excursion. We can all do better to protect our oceans.
