IMPORTANT- There is a dress code for this tour! Guys must wear pants and closed toed shoes on this tour. Swimwear, sandals, shorts, hats, sportswear, sunglasses, and sleeveless shirts are NOT allowed! Furthermore, we do not allow any aspects of sex tourism either. We are a group of local friends that host bar crawls in Colombia. We wanted to give foreigners and tourists a unique "locals' experience", so we started these bar crawls. This bar crawl consists of 3 local bars and 1 club, all located in the center of Cartagena. Centro Historico is one of the most popular nightlife areas, especially among university students and tourists, in Cartagena. We will meet for 1 hour at the first bar at 8:30 pm to congregate and converse. We will then proceed to the next bars every hour, finally finishing off at the club by 12:15 am. Sometimes locals also come on our crawls, so you may have the opportunity to connect with some Colombians and practice your Spanish!

Originally booked for a...
Originally booked for a Friday night , they asked me to come Saturday since no one else has booked which I understood . I show up on Saturday and no one is there or responding to my messages .
Response from the operator: I’m sorry but this review is absolutely false. We moved this person to Saturday and our group and guide were at the meeting location at 8:30 PM. Everyone else on the tour had no issue finding our group/guide. All this guest had to do was ask the staff which table was for the tour and they would have shown her. She never made any effort to find the group at the first location.

Cancelled while we were already en route
We were scheduled for the Friday night bar crawl and were already en route when we were notified of the cancellation — only about one hour before the tour start time. Because our hotel was over an hour away, we had already arranged and paid for expensive transportation. Had we been notified earlier, we could have canceled our transportation and made other plans for the evening. The late notice caused unnecessary inconvenience and expense.
Response from the operator: Hi! We are so sorry about this! You were our only booking for the tour and we attempted to reach out to you well before the tour began to see if you would have liked to still come on the tour. We did not receive a response, so at 7:00 PM, we cancelled the tour and you were notified via email. Our tour begins at 8:30 PM, so that is 1 hour and 30 minutes before the start of the tour. We do state in our listing that a minimum number of travelers need to book in order for us to have a tour.

Fun bars with a great guide!
This was a really great tour with Laura!! She was absolutely amazing the entire time and even walked us back to our hotel at the end of the night. The bars were a lot of fun, especially 7 times. I would do it again!

Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cartagena.
How much does Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia cost?
+
Prices start at $30 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 Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia take?
+
Plan for about 4.3 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 Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 30 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 Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia?
+
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 Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia?
+
Around 11 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 4.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia 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 Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia?
+
Included: Free entrance into Seven 7 Times; 10% off the check at XO Rooftop; Free Entrance at Casa Palenque; Tour guide: English, Spanish; and 50.000 COP promo of beer, shot, and cocktail at Barra 7. Not included: Drinks you consume. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia?
+
We will be meeting inside Barra 7, a cocktail bar in the center of Cartagena! Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia offered in?
+
It is offered in English 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 Friday Night Bar Crawl in Cartagena, Colombia?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
