      The worst
      LaTonya_J, Feb 2024
      I would give a negative 5 if I could. False advertisement. It’s a small ding boat with a motor. No open bar. Some guy standing around harassing you about beers and water and then throws the beer that you selected in the boat and that’s your open bar. There was chaos at the meeting location. I booked for 2 and there was a group of friends that also booked individually ( a total of 8 other couple) none of us would dare risk our lives and sanity on that tiny boat that was already crowded. We would have been unable to even stand. Sitting leg to leg with no wiggle room would have been the only option. Tatianna had no idea how to control the chaos. It was not indicative of Viator standard and I am extremely disappointed.

      This guest and party arrived and insulted the host - calling her a cuss word without reason. The guests did not read the itinerary as they should've. They were demanding a two decker boat, when we clearly state it is a speedboat for smaller groups. The boats weren't overcrowded. The boats are normal sized speedboats. We reported this guest for very inappropriate conduct and Viator flagged them.
      False Advertising

      This tour was a true overstated, over exaggerated, false advertising. Do not book this tour. This is NOT a party boat. No open bar and an ugly fishing boat.

      All depends who is on your boat

      Boat “party” if you are with the right people. We met up with young booze cruise folks at the horses (like they tell you to). We had to go to the boat ramps to find out which boat we were supposed to be on. Some boats had families (would not suggest). We had 12 people upfront (family in the back) and we were all drinking and yelling and dancing and being fools. Crew made sure we didn’t do anything too dangerous. The liquor was 2 big bottles of not so tasty stuff, but it was only 10%, so we just ended up taking shots until it was gone. We got taken to a club outside the city walls immediately after that sucked. They charged us more for the mixers than the vodka bottle (we didn’t think to ask), and the place was dead except for us.
      Make sure you know what you're in for

      I feel slightly bad giving this 1 star, but the description by Viator is incredibly misleading and was VREY different from any of our other experiences in Cartagena. It started by getting a WhatsApp message at 4:07pm telling us we needed to meet at the Pegasus statues at 4:50. We showed up at 4:40pm, messaged the number as told (including describing what we were wearing), and received nothing back. We found other folks also looking for the tour operator and finally called the number at 4:53 when we hadn't found our tour guide. The woman sent us a video of where to go, which was quite obviously not the Pegasus statues - though those were in clear view of the dock where we were sent. We then waited 20 minutes to even board a sunset cruise and our first stop was to drop off the driver's gas tank at the petrol station. The "open bar" is not an open bar -- you have a choice of a local alcohol with orange juice or Coca-Cola with rum in tiny cups. We had been told we would return by 6:30 and did not dock until 7:20, which caused us to miss our dinner reservation. If all of these logistical issues were not enough, we also witnessed our captain drinking and the capacity of the boat clearly states 13 people -- there were 20 aboard and at some points, I was definitely worried that we would keel over as they let some of the folks stand up on the seats to dance. Oh! And there is no bathroom on the boat, so if you have to go, they help you to the back of the boat to go off the side.

      Responding to this review, and clearing things up: the boat pilot did not drink on board, the guest might've confused him with the staff member in charge of entrainment who wears the same uniform. The tour clearly states where guests need to go. We never state there is a bathroom on board.
      A great option if you’re...

      A great option if you’re a solo female traveler looking for a safe space to party and have a drink or two.
      Worst experience ever
      Frances_B, Nov 2023
      This tour was horrible the meeting place has a bunch of boats no one knew what was going on it’s a bunch of people trying to sell you things. We didn’t meet a no rooftop bar or have a shot of tequila no host the people working the boat only spoke Spanish. We circle the city on the boat stopped in the water when the guy wanted everyone to say where they’re from and wanted people to dance when it was no room To dance because the boat was over packed we asked about life jacket the guy said they drive the boat slow so not to worry. When we got back to shore we were asking about the club we suppose to go. The guy who spoke no English directed us to some guy and Said he will walk us to the club which was about a 5 min walk. Got to the club no one wee on there and it smelled sour like mildew we used the bathroom and left This tour was very unorganized and we didn’t get nothing that they said would happen. I won’t recommend this tour to anyone.

      We don't meet at a rooftop bar or offer a shot of Tequila. We're certain that this person conducted the wrong activity.
      Excellent Party time
