Review of Cartagena’s $24 speed boat party, with bay views, open bar, music, practical tips, drawbacks, and booking advice.
“Sao pontuais e as atendentes do serviço respondem prontamente pelo WhatsApp todas as dúvidas com rapidez e exatidão. o preço é justo e até barato pelo que oferece. Pontos a melhorar: o rapaz que conduz a viagem precisa ser um pouco mais simpático. A musica dele é péssima. Quase só tocou reggatons e eletrônicos e muita musical comercial para gringos de péssima qualidade. Pra salvar a viagem tocou uma ou outra salsa e uma bachata porque eu insisti pedindo. Deveriam tocar música tradicional colombiana e caribenha para que o gringo aprenda a musica local e os latinos desfrutem musica de verdade. Outro ponto: precisam usar um barco que tenha Banheiro!!!…”

“Our family of four, including our children ages 21 and 18, enjoyed a remarkable all day cruise around Santorini and the neighboring islands that make up the Caldera. The captain, Panos, and first mate, Athena had an excellent dynamic and made a great team. They were incredibly accommodating and attentive to detail. From the moment we were picked up in a private luxury SUV. Until our drop off 10hrs later we were treated like royalty.
