    Beautiful views

    Very beautiful everything. The atmosphere created by sailing through the bay is an experience that you can not miss with spectacular views of the walled city and big mouth you can see a beautiful sunset. You have a cocktail, you dance you can interact with the other tourists is an atmosphere of party and joy, then they offer to take you to the disco is what my agency offered me I recommend.

    Response from the operator: Gracias por compartir con nosotros esta experiencia en cartagena. Estamos convencidos que esta reseña ayudará a mas personas a vivir por carne propia de esta hermosa escapada en la puesta de sol mas espectacular de Cartagena abordo del Sibarita Master.

    Before you hire them, check if they're real, it seems to be a fraud!

    We paid for the tour and just after we had paid they contacted us via whatsapp mentioning (quoted the text): “we had a little problem with the platform and at the time of receiving your reservation we had already sold out places for today” This happened on April 19. They committed to full refund (it was tour operator error). And to date contacted them to know about My refund and not me They respond.

    Response from the operator: Que tal Miguel buenas tardes, lamentamos el inconveniente que tuvimos con tu reserva, el reembolso ya ha sido procesado, el mensaje que citas va seguido de otro donde te ofrecemos reagendar para el día siguiente, pongo esto para que se tenga el panorama completo y la gente no se quede con la idea de que nunca mas volvimos a responder, hay otro mensaje que puedo citar la respuesta a tu pregunta sobre si tienes derecho al reembolso: "Sí solamente que como nos toca en fin de semana el reembolso se procesaría a partir del día lunes, pero pierde cuidado que tu recibirás el reembolso al 100%", como podrás recordar, siempre estuvimos pendientes de tus mensajes y a pesar que los tiempos no nos favorecieron el reembolso ya está procesado al 100%, Es triste ver tu comentario pero lo aceptamos con humildad. Por cierto, somos una empresa 100% real con una tasa de cancelación del 0% en Viator, lo que nos posiciona como una de las mejores empresas de tours en todo el caribe. No te preocupes Miguel tu dinero lo tienes en tu cuenta y nosotros seguiremos trabajando duro para mejorar nuestros procedimientos. Saludos!

    Misledaing

    In the description of the tour, 2 complimentary beer or wine and one appetizer were to be included, which was not the case. When I asked for a beer, I was asked to pay for it. Appetizers were being sold as well. Thirty minutes prior to the end of the tour, a gentleman asked if I still wanted the beer and said that it was included. We were no longer interested in having a beer.

    Response from the operator: Apparently they are confusing the tour with some other tour they saw while doing their search because if you go to the description of the product inclusions no beers or wine are offered, the tour includes open bar of cuba libre, rum, lemonade, water and soda. If the clients want something additional from the menu either drinks or snacks they have to pay directly with the crew. I think it is a little unfair the qualification and the commentary seeing that it is a confusion with some other product.

    Great Trip!! I highly recommend!!

    Wonderful trip!! Nice comfortable boat with a lot of space (2 decks). Crew was friendly & helpful. Drinks from the open bar were served by the crew, so you didn't have to worry about spilling drinks on a rocking boat, even though the boat was very stable. Good music playing. I would highly recommend this trip.

    Response from the operator: Dear Margaret, we are thankful to have you on board. You are amazing! Please come back soon!

    Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena cost?

    +

    Prices start at $66 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 Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 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 Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 7 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 Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena?

    +

    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 Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena?

    +

    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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena 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 Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena?

    +

    Included: Alcoholic beverages; and Carbonated beverages. Not included: Dock Tax, Cartagena Bay. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Sunset Navigation through the Bay of Cartagena?

    +

    Located in front of the Clock Tower monument, if you are staying in the historic center you can get there on foot and if you are in areas such as Boca Grande, San Diego or Marbella. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    +
