    Wonderful day in beru

    Juan was my tour guide and he was the nicest native Colombian i have met! Funny, down to earth and answered all questions with a honest answer! Loved that. I will definitely recommend to anyone who comes to Cartagena to check him out!

    Response from the operator: I hope you are well. We are glad that everything was to your liking and that our colleague answered all your questions. We work hard to provide quality service.

    Awesome!!

    Such a good full day trip and chilling spaces for having lunch… our guide Jason was annoying and a good fella during our stay.

    Response from the operator: We are very happy that everything was to your liking and that our staff provided a quality service. We work for this. Have a nice day.

    DON'T BUY! IT'S VERY BAD!

    OH, BAD! TERRIBLE! SCARY! So ridiculous that there are no words to express my indignation! RIDICULOUS! The Mambo club has no water to go to the bathroom or wash hands, the lunch is very bad, the rice is completely refined, the patacones are terrible! And that was the best part of the ride! At 4 p.m. the guides left us there without any help from the tourism company!!!! LARGADOS ALONE!!! We waited in a bar next door, not knowing how we would go to the plancton walk or how we would leave. Then the horror began, a canoe for 10 people was occupied with more than 20, so heavy that it couldn't get out of the sand, the boat led by I have no idea who in high speed and WITHOUT REVIEW LIVES (it had a limited number and was given while the boat was already in motion and, obviously, I and my brother were without), WE were scared, thinking that at any moment the boat could turn. And then, we got to the place KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK has to laugh to not cry, it is pathetic, the images are not real, there is no beautiful shine and are only one 5 minutes in the water and we were gone! We returned to the island and had to follow a person, there were several buses there, we entered one and thank God we descended healthy and saved, but all the time very concerned and worried. DON’T BUY, DON’T SPEND YOUR MONEY AND DON’T RISK YOUR SAFETY

    Response from the operator: Esperamos que isso seja bom. Levaremos em consideração o seu comentário para melhorar nossos serviços. Trabalharemos mais para oferecer um serviço de qualidade, que é o que mais desejamos.

    Specify what requirements people traveling have to have, because I could not swim and I could not go down to take a photo

    Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cartagena.

    How much does Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton cost?

    +

    Prices start at $60 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 Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton take?

    +

    Plan for about 14 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 Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 13 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 Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton?

    +

    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 Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 14-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton?

    +

    Around 5 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 14-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton 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 Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton?

    +

    Included: Travel insurance; $30,000 COP voucher for lunch (Different options); plankton activity; Welcome drink; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Services not mentioned; and Balinese beds. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Enjoy In cartagena Playa Blanca + Plankton include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 211 listed pickup locations in and around Cartagena. Be ready about 45 minutes before the start time.
