Review of Cartagena’s Rosario Islands tour, with VIP, ecological, and party options, costs, stops, snorkeling, lunch, and practical tips.
“The last stop of the day is, by far, the best place. The tour would be so much better if they just took you directly to Rosario De Mar Eco Hotel (the last stop), so you coud spend the entire day there. The other stops were nice, but there wasnt a beach at any of them, and the food/drinks (which you have to pay for) were good, but also very expensive. Also be warned about the boat ride. It was a lot of fun, but not for the faint of heart. The boat is extremely fast, and a lot of water splashes into it. If you dont want to get…”

“Be on time for the pick up. This was a great experience, Yulie, our tour guide was super, and yes they speak English too. Because it’s a group tour, you do get to meet people from all over the world. The food was great and they have option for everyone. As a Jamaica, this Peñol rock was a bucket list and it was great. Very crowdy as it was holiday time.”

Review of Cartagena’s 5-stop Rosario Islands boat tour, with forts, lunch, snorkeling, three ticket choices, costs, and practical advice.
“Miguel was a great tour guide! They are very considerate and helpful. It is very fun, be ready for a bit of rough boat ride due to winds but it honestly is not bad and completely worth it. If you sit up front you feel more bumps, if you're in the back you feel more of the splashes. The spacing of stops was perfect and we loved talking with Miguel between each stop. We didn't experience any overbearing vendors, they may ask you once but its not nearly as bad as others made it seem in reviews. Everyone is very kind and helpful, if you do decide to get a…”
Review of Cartagena’s Bona Vida catamaran to the Rosario Islands, with snorkeling, lunch, swimming, drinks, pricing, and practical tips.
“We departed almost on time from gate 3. The ride was really smooth! As soon as we left the port, we had watermelon juice and some snacks. Everything was good. Including the lunch as well. We ate as much as we wanted and had plenty. Snorkeling gear was great too. The second time we stopped was ok. It's not a great place to do snorkeling. But, as the tour was coming to an end, the waiters stopped being nice. No more smiles. They gave us attitude because we didn't ordered any alcohol. So we didn't left tip. 4 stars for that hiccup! Otherwise, I really recommend if you want a…”

“We absolutely loved this tour - one of the favorite things we did on our trip to Colombia! They were great with communicating with us all the details about the day, and were right on time to pick us up from the hotel. We did the english speaking tour with Amelia who was so knowledgeable and made the tour fun and interactive. The tour started with learning some history about coffee and trying a cold coffee drink. Then, we got to go through the whole process of picking coffee beans, de-shelling it, learning about the washing and drying process. We ended with getting to try 3 different coffee drinks, a…”
