No-show for Ceviche
Tour guide never showed up for the tour. We waited half an hour while Viator tried to contact tour operator, no one answered multiple calls to several numbers.

This tour doesn’t exist!!!!
This is a scam. We booked a tour yesterday and the place to meet didn’t exist. Tried to call but of course the number isn’t in service. We are out $170 US dollars. DON’T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE! Buyer be warned…

A great experience
My wife and I did the tour. We thought it was just going to several restaurants and tasting different ceviches. At the first place we stopped, we go to do a cooking class. Under the guidance of the chef, we made our own ceviche. Also one of the things we liked was seeing the different ingredients and types of ceviche. One of the dishes had peanuts in it! All different and all good. We were also very lucky because the night we did it, we were the only two people. So we had our own private tour with Juan Pablo. It was all great....

Great ceviche tour that took us through Cartagena
We took the ceviche tour with JP, recently. We were fortunate another couple canceled, so he was our private guide for over two hours. In that time, we walked through several neighborhoods, eating different ceviches, watching them being made, and making our own tilapia ceviche with Tiger Sauce. The restaurant owners and chefs were very nice, as JP translated ingredients and directions to us. We tasted five different kinds of ceviche, as we sipped rum drinks provided, as well. JP took us through some quiet streets, which suddenly opened to plazas, then to other quiet streets, which led to fiestas. All the while, he explained the history of the neighborhoods, the different ceviches, and street music and art. Our last ceviche was from a street vendor, which you would think is crazy, but this isn’t just any street vendor. This man, whose booth has a huge sombrero over it, made the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest ceviche ever made. After an entire evening of tasting ceviches, I must say, that was the freshest, purest, tastiest, ceviche I’ve ever eaten. J P says the lines to this vendor after working hours are around the corner. We asked, and were told that in the evenings the Chef makes 400 servings of ceviche everyday. We had a great tour, learned so much, and ate our way through Cartagena! Thank you, JP!
Response from the operator: Hello Terry We are so happy that you enjoyed your time in this amazing city as well as taking part in the tasty Ceviche Tour. If you ever return to this unforgettable city or this equally amazing country, we will be more than happy to help you create many more timeless memories.

Why this scores 35
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cartagena Ceviche Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cartagena.
How much does Cartagena Ceviche Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $85 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cartagena usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cartagena Ceviche Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cartagena is not rushed.
Is Cartagena Ceviche Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 35 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Cartagena, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cartagena Ceviche Tour?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Cartagena Ceviche Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2.5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Cartagena Ceviche Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cartagena can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cartagena and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cartagena Ceviche Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cartagena within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cartagena?
+
On Outty we rank every Cartagena experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cartagena Antigua & Barrio Getsemani group with audio system, Historic Center & Getsemaní Shared Tour in Cartagena, Cartagena VIP Boat Tour: Rosario Islands & Snorkel. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cartagena?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cartagena?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
