Full-day Barú adventure from Cartagena with beach club time, mangrove boat trips, snorkeling, and bioluminescent plankton at night.
“More organization and clear direction is needed. Aside from telling me where to meet, tell me who to meet and in what mode of transportation. Aside from almost being overcharged / robbed by hustlers for two drinks, a whopping $116 US! The trip was as lovely as all the good people that stepped in to help and make the experience a good one; it was a decent time that could have been a lot better. You all have some kinks to work out.”
Sunset at Playa Blanca plus a boat ride to bioluminescent plankton, with a 30,000 COP dinner voucher from Cartagena.
“It was unbelievably it really shows the fluorescence 5 stars”

“La logistica del transporte estuvo excelente, en todas las instancias cumplieron con la hora pactada. el aviario es nuy lindo vale la ir el unico inconveniente fue en la playa de baru, en freedon beach, supuestamente era un lugar tranquilo para descanzar y nos pusieron toda el dia musica a todo volumen que no te dejaba no conversar con mi acompañante y fue peor en la tarde donde subio aun mas el volumen. la verdad fue muy molesto”
See Colombia's National Aviary and Barú Island beaches, then witness bioluminescent plankton at night on this 15-hour combo tour.
“This was such a terrible experience. At the beginning thy seemed very organized when they picked us up and took us to the aviary, then they just dropped us off with a “guide” who just left us and picked us up at 12. Then they took us to this semiprivate beach place called Mambo with mid food, extremely loud, they just left us, and went home I guess, and asked the restaurant waiters to take us to the new tour operator “AfroCorales” to give us the plankton tour, they sold us a photo package for 60k COP, and promised to send pics that so far have not shown up. Lastly,…”

Speedboat to Cartagena’s Rosario Islands with 4 island stops, beach time, shrimp ceviche, and a night luminous plankton experience.
“Baru remains the only island appreciated but the rest ... zero .. they come to pick us up at the hotel it's okay they drop us at the port we don't know where to go we ask for help no one calculates us until a whatssap intervention. Then we are crammed into separate boats we are made to change boats again between snorkeling and the island of cholon. The island of cholon we take 3 bottles of water at $ 150,000 super scam the water is disgusting and I'm not talking about the people who come to see us every 2 minutes. Then we take the boat crammed until baru.…”
