A Guide makes all the difference! - They depart from the meeting point in front of the agency, where it is super comfortable to wait and which is well located in the center. Then we started with Divian who was the BEST Guide: extremely well-humored, polite, professional and who went beyond his role giving dozens of recommendations throughout and at the end of the tour. I leave the criticism that we spent too much time in the Getsemaní neighborhood, and in the store they call mine, to the detriment of the final attractions that should be the focus of the tour: we had to run a little just when I wanted more time for photos, in the hill and in the castle where the ticket was included. The suggestion that remains is to balance that to calm us down at the end. I leave my 10 simply for the sympathy and care of our wonderful Guide

Raphael Riviera Rocks the Castle and Convent Tour - A Cartegena "high"-light! Raphael & this half day tour elevated not only my feet to the highest spot in the city with spectacular views, but also elevated my knowledge of Colombia and Cartegena's past history and present story! The personal touches along with the A/C shuttle-bus ride and extra stops surely make this worth your time and pesos.
