“The journey to Cartagena's famous mud volcano was smooth, with our bus delivering us safely to this unique attraction. What sets this experience apart isn't just the novelty of floating in a mineral-rich mud bath, but the array of services that come with it. Our tour guides were upfront about the various services offered during the excursion, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

Key points: - Towel holders keep your items clean and dry - Photographers capture your muddy memories - Guards watch over your belongings - Helpers assist in cleaning…”

A half-day Cartagena outing to Totumo Mud Volcano with a bilingual guide, plus lunch and pool time at a beach resort.
“My daughter, mother and I went and had a great and relaxing time. Air conditioned van, nice tour guide and the volcano experience was nice. Be prepared to tip guys for a 5 minute massage in the volcano and the ladies in the river as well, whom will rinse you off. Those are optional, you don’t have to advantage of those services if you don’t want too but it was a nice experience”
Speed boat to Cartagena's Rosario Islands, oceanarium included, snorkel mask, private beach lunch on Baru, plus party island stop.
“Activité correct mais le bateau sportif trop intense avec de grosse vag”
Hotel pickup to Colombia’s National Aviary and bird show, then Playa Blanca on Barú with swim time. Lunch add-on.
“Todo el paseo fue genial, pero el vehículo era viejo con sillas en mal estado y la guia no estuvo pendiente a la salida de playa blanca, para tomar el transporte, pues caminó muy rapido. Faltó verificación de la compra de los tiquetes del Aviario Nacional, pues me requirieron pagar la entrada, dónde ya la había pagado y eso ocasionó retraso en el Tour. Todo fue muy bonito... gracias”
From Cartagena, soak at El Totumo mud volcano then tour San Basilio de Palenque with drums, natural medicine, and lunch, guided.
“This was an amazing experience. I only had a short time in Cartagena and I was able to do this tour which actually combines 2 tours in one. My guide, Miguel, was very knowledgeable and accommodating. I really enjoyed myself.”
EcoPlan Aviary and Playa Blanca in Barú: see 170 bird species, enjoy lunch on the beach, and relax in clear water surroundings.
“This was the best combinación of activities I've had in a long time!! The beach and a drink 1 hour, the Aviary for 2 hours, lunch back at the beach, and more beach time 1.5 hours. Perfect!”
A smooth Cartagena day trip that pairs the Aviario Nacional de Colombia with Playa Blanca and a Mambo Beach Club stop on Barú.
“The activity was slightly worth it due to the National aviary which was awesome. I am glad I booked the activity with that included. The beach club was mediocre at best. They can improve on a lot things. First of all, the water and beach is incredible but once you reach the “mambo club” you realize how deteriorated the “club” is. No running water in the bathrooms. Instead they have a huge plastic barrel which ran out of water an hour after we arrived. Outside vendors constantly harassing you and will not take NO for answer. It was really uncomfortable. The massage ladies constantly asking. The 30,000COP food credit is…”
