“La excursión está muy bien organizada y el trato y el servicio del personal ha sido excelente, pero los lugares visitados podrían ser mejores. La visita a Barranquilla no merece la pena y la playa visitada en Santa Marta no es la ideal. Hay de más bonitas. También puede que escogiésemos la excursión equivocada para nuestros gustos. Ahora hubiese escogido una para Tayrona.”

However there was a lot of local cuisine to eat with explanation about them. Thanks Andre for also taking me to purchase carnival headgear and dropping me off at the Carnival. So flexible and accommodating Recommended but better to avoid booking for a Sunday.”
