Fun experience
Sebas was fun bartender to teach us all about Colombian spirits and cocktails. Had so much fun making and tasting every drink! Wish there would have been some snacks available for us while drinking, but none were offered because it was Sunday. :(. Otherwise it was a great experience in a charming location looking out at the harbor.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re really glad you had such a fun time with Sebas, he has a great way of mixing knowledge, good energy, and hands-on experiences behind the bar. It’s awesome to hear you enjoyed both making and tasting the cocktails in such a special setting by the harbor. We also truly appreciate your note about the snacks. Sundays can be a bit different in terms of availability, but your feedback is very valuable and helps us keep improving the overall experience. We’d love to have you back again soon

Colombian cocktails workshop: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cartagena.
How much does Colombian cocktails workshop cost?
+
Prices start at $96 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 Colombian cocktails workshop take?
+
Plan for about 1.8 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 Colombian cocktails workshop worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cartagena, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Colombian cocktails workshop?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Colombian cocktails workshop suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Colombian cocktails workshop?
+
Around 2 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 1.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Colombian cocktails workshop 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 Historic Center & Getsemaní Shared Tour in Cartagena, Cartagena Antigua & Barrio Getsemani group with audio system, 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.
What is included in Colombian cocktails workshop?
+
Included: Alcoholic beverages; and Snacks. Not included: Dinner; and Private transportation. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Colombian cocktails workshop?
+
At the beginning of the bustling Arsenal Street, right around the corner and across from the convention center, there's a two-story pink building with wooden barrels outside promoting free hugs. When you arrive. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Colombian cocktails workshop offered in?
+
It is offered in English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Colombian cocktails workshop?
+

+
