Relax, dance, eat....a bit of Paradise - This was a magical day with my husband and friends. The views were gorgeous, the Catamaran was so amazing, and the atmosphere on the boat was great. We were able to relax and also dance and enjoy the festive atmosphere on the boat. People were friendly and interested in knowing others without it being a crazy party boat. We did not stop on the Islands the way other trips do, so it felt far less chaotic. The swimming was heavenly and the staff was helpful and friendly. The lunch was plentiful and delicious.

Beautiful tour, service out of 10!!! - Comfortable, clean catamaran, wonderful, attentive and friendly staff. The snacks and lunch were delicious!!!! The music was at a good time to liven up the walk, but it didn't leave us deaf. I felt sick and they had medicine for me. We had a spectacular day. My only criticism is that they offer free snorkeling, but there wasn't much to see. Otherwise, everything is moral 5!!!

Fantastic boat and day at sea! - Beautiful and spacious boat with plenty of covered seating and it was a fun ride! The snorkeling was ok and they gave us lots of time to enjoy the warm water. Wonderful welcome drinks and lunch and we had an amazing overall day! This was a highlight of our trip to Cartagena!

Misleading tour description. - The boat didnt go to de San Fernando de Bocachica, even though the description mentioned admission fee to the fort included. It neither went to Isla Grande, nor did it stop there. They didnt take us to Isla Rosario (Cholon) either. It only stopped in the middle of the water infront of Baru to have lunch on the boat. Keep this in mind before booking.

Well looked after but not a lot to see. - Bona Vida put on a nice trip, the boat was very as were the staff and the food. My score however is for the trip in general. It shouldn't be called a snorkelling trip. The first stop is too deep and cloudy to see anything. The second stop is clearer but there were only small grey fish. It seems the Rosario islands are not the place to go snorkelling which was a little disappointing as this was the reason we booked the trip. Also, if you have been on a Catamaran trip before, you might be disappointed. The scenery for the whole way and whole way back isn't interesting so it is better to book a trip where you get off on the islands, instead of sailing around. If there were more islands in the Rosario and it spent the day sailing around them, this would be better but you spend a lot of time in the open sea with no view. However, if you have done a couple of day trips to the island and you want something different and have never been on a Catamaran it would be a nice experience. Bona Vida look after you well and it was nice to jump off into the sea and have a swim. You can swim onto a small empty nearby beach too if you are confident enough.

Great Crew but not amazing experience - Food was good and crew was nice. Did not see any fish at either locations we were taken to for snorkeling. The boat itself was built more for a quick trip with a big dance floor no one used and could have been refitted with more comfy seating. The sun was very hot and there were limited spaces with shade.
