    Jose was a great guide and we enjoyed the beach , weather was beautiful and the food was good… also lots of water sport activities to do.

    Enjoyable day. We had the use of a day bed in a sectioned off area of the beach with a bar. Lunch was good - you have a voucher for 30,000 mil and can pay extra for more expensive items if you want. Be prepared for a very bumpy ride when you get closer to the beach. And the water is rocky close to the shore - but it’s clear enough to be able to watch your step. Just don’t bother showing up at the requested time of 5:55am. They didn’t get there until 6:45ish and the local seller near the pickup spot we chatted with said Backpackers is usually late and sometimes not there until 7-7:15. Overall very much enjoyed the day. Perfect amount of beach time. Leader Jon Wayne was great and gave instructions and updates in Spanish and English.

    excellent! Franklin was very knowledgeable and great in both english and spanish. We loved the tour around the islands. Plenty of time to see and do in one day. Definitely worth the price and highly recommended for anyone coming through Cartagena!

    Attention please listen to me carefully DO NOT BOOK THE FULL DAY PLAYA BLANCU BARU TOUR WITH BACKPACKERS they are scammers I repeat do not book with them and here is why 1- they overpacked the van that takes us to the beach plus the AC was not working . We were all stuck on top of each other like sardines . 2- when we reached the beach location it’s was super dirty , lots of garbage on the floor and the place was packed with street vendors that we’re harassing to buy stuff . 3- the walk to the beach area is super long once we got to the location we had to pay extra for the cabana longing chairs which was supposed to be included in the price . 4- the beach area is gross and full of rocks which was very slippery. The description of the excursion stated white powdery sand with nice blue water which is false . 5- the massage lady were walking around with a bucket of coconut oil asking us if we wanted a massage , which was very unsanitary nobody took a massage from our group 6- the street vendors were harassing us all day inside the cabana no peace . No running water in the bathroom. 7- the servers were extremely slow to give us our drinks plus an hour before we left the servers were harassing people that were at the beach swimming asking them to come out of the water to pay their bills . Horrible experience I’ll never book with this company and neither should you book your beach tour with another company .

    Went out with John Wayne. Trip was good. Only wish we had more time at the last two beaches, Cholon and playa Blanca. Very good service and created a good atmosphere.

    There were too many boats in the area. Too many vendors. Too many flies on your food. Not a peaceful stay. Lunch was okay. The tour guides were nice.

    The Tours company change the time of pick up and I had no knowledge. We were standing outside on the streets of Cartagena at 6 AM in the morning yet pick up time was changed to 6:45 AM. The water at this beach is amazing and the staff who attended to you here were phenomenal.

    Great day trip to the islands with guide Franklin. The trip was just a bit uncoordinated, but still very enjoyable. Trip included visits to five islands. Great meal included.

    Everything was great except for the amount of rocks in the beautiful water and the lack of timely service during lunch at Mambo Beach

    My friends and I had a great time at Playa Blanca! Our host Franklin was SO helpful and the entire staff at Mambo beach was AMAZING! We had a lovely meal, and drinks throughout the day, and they even celebrated my birthday, which was very nice! I would also keep in mind the people selling items on the beach. You can politely tell them no and move on. If you see something interesting or want to try it, try it! This is how they make their money and you should support their hustle. We recommend this tour with Backpackers and would do it again! Thank you for a great experience.
