Colombia Walking Tours & Trips

This was a great tour through Columbia with countless highlights! We enjoyed the last 11 days very much, from receiving a lovely welcome bag, lots of good activities, tours, guides and beautiful accommodations! What could be improved is the flexibility for airport transfers in case one arrives a few days early or leaves later. The only negative experience in Columbia was with Avianca and their very disappointing service; Avianca's so-called modern cabin is the worst and most claustrophobic configuration possible - it's a shame for Columbian Tourism and as frequent flyers we can say with confidence that Avianca has the worst cabin standards in South America, even budget airlines offer a better service.

I recently took trip to Cartagena, Colombia with World Awaits Tours. I recommend booking with Bernell. She was very helpful with and well informed about how to survive the tourist industry and how to navigate the city. World Awaits Tours customized my experience to fit my interest. I went on a wonderful tour of the mangroves with local fishermen, spent time on a beach where the locals go (away from the tourist crowed beaches), and took a tour of the city guided by a local historian who gave me her perspective in addition to facts. I enjoyed learning about the culture of the city from the people who live there. I was offered a view of life in Cartagena from their perspective and gained an understanding of how the city has developed from a historical context. During my two week stay, Bernell’s knowledge of the best grocery stores and dry cleaning services was a godsend and helped make my extended stay enjoyable. I am especially grateful that she knew of a doctor that made house calls to my Airbnb when I unfortunately ate something that did not agree with my stomach during my first week. I give the service a 10 out of 10 and can’t wait to book more tours.
