a great day tour of murcia and cargagena - Right outside the gate to the port, our guide and bus were waiting for us. After the tour, we were taken back to where we started. Very convenient for people on a cruise. The tour is very worthwhile, exactly what I had in mind, covering the highlights of Muricia and Cartagena. Our tour guide is a nice young man who gave us a lot of information about the area and people. Our bus is comfortable, and the driver is attentive. No complaints at all from me. Thanks.

Cartagena Walking tour - Spain Day Tours did an amazing job putting this tour together with minimal notice due to bus strikes. They offered a walking tour and did not disappoint. Our tour guide went above and beyond being patient as we stopped a few times for pics, restroom breaks and a snack. Later most everyone went their separate ways and it was just my Husband and myself for the Roman Theater and our guide continued to give a personal tour. This was the best part of the tour.

Our day with Diego - Our tour guide, Diego, was very good with an Australian accent but now lives in the area. The bus drive to Murica was interesting. The walk around town was easy. Diego handled the celebration and associated additional traffic professionally. Back in Cartagena the naval museum was interesting. The climb up the hill to the ruins was well worth it. Pick up at the cruise terminal was easy and once done in town, the walk back was only a few blocks.

Cruise port tour/excursion option, instead of going in a big bus! - Tour was great! Nice your guide, she was VERY thorough in explaining everything, almost too thorough that we feel slightly bored. It is only our opinion as though other people might like details more than us! Other than too much information and slower pace of walking, we really enjoyed and appreciate her knowledge. Thank you!

cartagena / Spain is not worth a trip (no matter if day or more) - a seaside town without flair, without centre and much more there is a lack of everything, certainly one or the other top bodega (but where are they not in Spain) only the pedestrian zone is a dream for travel cases! for us, it will be listed in the wish list — again, not at all It must be awful when a cruise ship is present

Cheated - My original excursion was cancelled because of a strike by bus drivers. The company offered a walking tour for 15 euros, which I reluctantly accepted. My major problem with the you is that they deducted over 43 euros from my refund on the original price. What a ripoff!!
