Additional Information

On this tour we will go to a treasure in the middle of all the places on the long white beach, I call it the best place in Barú because they are the most beautiful facilities on the entire beach, you will not worry about being harassed by vendors, the food is delicious, the attention is special and the sea is turquoise.

Then we will go to the Aviary optionally, which is the second largest bird sanctuary in South America. Colombia is the country that concentrates the largest number of registered birds in the world. There you can marvel at seeing endemic birds and exotic birds; flamingos, toucans, macaws, emus, dancing peacocks, etc.

Aviary and Baru - Amazing! - Maria loves what she does and it shows! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with her. After seeing all the work involved, we are so, so happy we didn’t try to do this on our own. It’s all very confusing if you are not from the area. The Aviary is a must see experience! We have travelled all over the world and Playa Blanca has some of the prettiest water we’ve ever seen. It’s pricey, but to see both, it’s so worth it! Maria, you are the best and we will recommend you to everyone!

One of kind tour guide - Maria was magnificent!!!!! She communicated everything we needed and what was to be expected. She also gave suggestions about things we could do and opportunities we could take advantage of while in the areas we were in. She was very knowledgeable of things as far as timing and keeping us on a schedule that didn’t seemed stressful and allowed us to enjoy each thing we did. I will definitely be using Maria every time I come to Colombia. Thank you Maria!

Baru Tour Guide - "I had the most incredible experience exploring Baru with our tour guide Maria Jose Morales Correa. Her passion for the city's history and culture was evident in every detail of the tour. From the charming tour of the Aviary to the breathtaking Nena beach in Baru, every moment was captivating. Maria Jose Morales Correa not only provided insightful commentary but also went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable and personalized experience. I highly recommend her tours to anyone visiting Cartagena!"

The best in town! - I really enjoyed my experience with this tour group. Maria was extremely attentive and made sure everything was good and taken care of for us. The beach club was very quiet and relaxing with great food and super comfortable sun loungers. I do all my excursions through this agency, they never disappoint! Excellent option for Spanish and English speakers!

Maria’s tours are well organized, well thought out, and she is amazing!! - The history of Colombia is not only picturesque by photo, but filled with prideful Colombians who love to share their beautiful country with travelers!! We found every moment of each tour to be informative, breathtaking, and well planned out to suite our expectations and then some!

Relaxing - María did a phenomenal job planning out time out to La Playa Blanco. Never felt more relaxed during my time at a beach. She checked in to make sure everything was going well and our package included a lunch that was amazing

First time family trip to Cartagena! - I love Maria Jose. First time in Colombia with 3 kids and Maria provides a lot of information ahead of my trip, easing my nerves. Picks us up at the airport and gives us the run down of do's and dont's. So helpful from the beginning! My family of 6 (3 adults and 3 children) first toured with Maria Jose for the Beach Tour and Aviary end of December. We had such a blast! My kids loved this day more than any I think. My husband and I also booked with this agency for the the five island boat tour on 12/31 and it was exceptional. Super fun! On the 1st of January our family of 6 did the city tour. Since we were a bit tired in the morning from being up late the night before, I reached out to Maria Jose and asked her if we can move the tour a bit down and loved her flexibility! My boys (ages 11 and 17) absolutely loved the tour and history. I would have loved to book more tours but we ran out of time. I did my research and contacted many agencies ahead of my trip but chose Maria Jose because of her responsiveness and diligence at any hour of the day. We will definitely return and book with Maria Jose and La Perla Viajes y Turismo!

Awesome tours: Aviary, Glowing Plankton, Palenque - This past weekend, we did a couple of tours with Maria Jose Morales Correa La Perla Viajes y Turismo and they were wonderful experience!s Decided to see the bioluminescent plankton at night and appreciated her suggestion of stopping by the National Aviary on the way. What a treasure! María José also put us in the right position to see a rare bird that only likes to come out during the bird show. The experience of the plankton was so amazing as we've never seen anything like that! We also went to Palenque and learned so much history and really appreciate how the Palenqueros strive to maintain their language and culture. Grateful to María José and her crew who were always attentive and would highly recommend her company's services.
