Our experience with this airport service was spotless. It is a private service in which the driver will be expecting you at the exit of the rival's gate with a sign bearing your name. Jhovany was very kind. He was wearing a facemask all the time and the car was sanitized. He left us at the hotel and even gave a dining recommendation we followed. Thanks to our travel consultant Paula who arranged it our services.

This was a very nice experience, the background music was nice, the description of the events seems very well informed and the speaker speech it's easy to understand and fun to listen. I have been to the castle before but this time I felt I was with a private tour guide and I was able to take my own time without feeling rushed.

Daniel, the guide, is knowledgeable. He hosted a tour of Communa 13 using a historic and ethnographic lens to illustrate socioeconomic evolutions. It was a deep education of a district I would have otherwise never had the opportunity to become acquainted

The tour guide has great knowledge of his country and its cities, so you'll have a great time absorbing information like all the facts about the history of structures of the palace of the inquisition or the walled city of Cartagena and its surroundings. Also with Gran Colombia Tours, I spent spectacular time watching the san Felipe Castle on its inside and exterio.
