fabulous - I recommend staying and sleeping in the park. This will allow you to enjoy this (and the other beaches), although less crowded and at the most beautiful times. to arrive : - if the sea is calm, take a launch from Santa Marta directly there (but you will get wet) - on foot (with or without a backpack) from the backpack (for as many kilometers as possible by bus), - with horses (it's done first) Nice bathrooms Beautiful landscapes

Amazing experience in the Tayrona Park - It was my parents first time meeting the ocean and they were amazed by everything they saw. My dad was playing like a kid in the ocean and the guides made the experience even better, because they were there for us through the whole trip! I truly recommend this agency!

Tayrona is simply spectacular! - In the park you can experience different environments ranging from the tropical jungle to desert and paradisiacal beaches. This experience is worth every second.

Impressive and beautiful. The park and the beaches - Very nice place to be in contact with nature. Cabo San Juan has options to use the beach, you can buy food and drinks. It has showers and bathrooms that have a cost to use.

Jungle trek to a beautiful beach - Lovely rather demanding trek in the jungle, prepare with loads of deet spray and good shoes, and loads of water. Cabo San Juan is one of the most beautiful beach I’ve seen in Colombia.

Don’t do it if you don’t speak good Spanish! - I was aware that the tour would be in Spanish which is fine. I speak basic Spanish and was just interested in doing the hike and seeing the beaches, it didn’t bother me that I wouldn’t be able to understand the guide’s background on Tayrona Park. However, because I and others on the tour did not speak Spanish, the instructions about how long we had in each place, where to go, where to meet and when were terrible! Communication was poor and the tour guides did not really care about getting important information across to us and it made the tour stressful. Instead of the guides checking with us after giving instructions in Spanish as to where to meet when, we always had to go up to them and confirm details, which were still unclear. Lunch was also highly disorganised. We felt more like an annoyance as English speaking participants, than paying customers to be looked after.

Extreme hike in an incredible place - It was our first visit to Tayrona Park and the truth is that the tour did not meet expectations. The itinerary is so tight that there was no time to see or enjoy the flora and fauna of this incredible place. It was a mountain hiking session (2 hours at a good pace) from the entry point to the incredible Cabo San Juan sector. Two hours to enjoy the place and then two hours back (again walking at a good pace) to return to the bus at the indicated time. In the future we will try to find another alternative that will allow us to enjoy this incredible place of beaches and incredible nature in time.

Worst Tour Experience: Abandoned and Uncompensated in Tayrona Park - I don't usually leave negative comments, but what happened here was unbelievable, so I feel it's important to share my experience. I booked a tour through the hostel I stayed at in Santa Marta (Viajero), along with another girl from the same hostel. We spent the day at Cabo San Juan beach, and after lunch, our tour guide (Eduardo) asked if we wanted to hike back to the entrance or ride horses. We chose for the horses, and Eduardo suggested we head to playa Piscina for the rest of the time, agreeing to meet us there at 2:30 PM to show us where the horses were. Around 2:25 PM, we arrived at the agreed location and waited in the sun until 3:00 PM. At that point, we decided to return to Cabo San Juan to check if everything was okay. When we arrived there, we asked at the restaurant, we were informed that the tour had left "ages ago." Cabo San Juan was the only place with signal, so I texted Eduardo, informing him that we would return with the horses and asking him to wait for us, but they didn't wait. It turns out our tour had passed by our meeting point way earlier before 2:30 PM, but they didn't feel like waiting for us and left without us. When we reached the entrance, I called the tour guide, who casually mentioned that they had left. I was of course irritated and I responded back to him and then he just hung up and never answered the phone again. We had to pay for a bus and a taxi back to Santa Marta, as it was getting late, and we were never compensated for anything. Additionally, the tour guide kept the change from my meal, which he was supposed to give back to me after lunch. We have never lived something like this, so irresponsible to leave two people behind because he decided to form the plan while eating and didn't remember when he suggested to us.
