The tour started 45 min...

The tour started 45 min due to a guide not being ready at the scheduled time. They do provide lockers for your valuables and waterproof phone cases which was great tho. Keep in mind these cases do not float so you still have to hang onto your stuff if you fall off your board (which will happen) or you can bring your own which does.

Response from the operator: We understand that your time is important , but we had a security issue to solve before you get in the water. you had a great time and we hope to see you again.

Being in the water and...

Being in the water and the views from there. Never did get to stand up on the board was more like paddle canoeing for that would of been enjoyed more on a kayak since I never really stood up. Wasn't out on the water long either not even an hour so that was disappointing.

Response from the operator: gracias por venir

Gabriel is the best guide

Gabriel was an excellent guide! He gave us proper information about the surroundings such as pickpocketing and crime areas and took care of us. The 4 islands, lunch and the sweet boat ride are things you need to experience when in Cartagena!

Waste of time

I was confirmed and charged for this tour but it didn’t happen. When I called to get a more exact meeting location, I was told it happened that morning though my reservation clearly stated it was a night tour. The tour operator assured me I can go the following night at the same time. So the next night, I sent a message to them to confirm the tour only to be told they had me listed as taking the tour the night before! So I reserved and wasted two nights while visiting Cartegena. If you book, be very wary and confirm, confirm, confirm!!

Response from the operator: el tour se llama sunrise tour si desea un tour en la tarde puede hacerlo pero tampoco llego en la tarde lamentamos que no viviera la experiencia por no entender la informacion

Paddleboard Tour: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Paddleboard Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $35 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 Paddleboard Tour take?

+

Plan for about 1 hour 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 Paddleboard Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 38 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 Paddleboard Tour?

+

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 Paddleboard Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 8. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 1-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Paddleboard Tour?

+

Around 13 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Paddleboard 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.
