Santa Marta with Javier
Javier was great. He was relaxed, very easy to talk with and had an excellent knowledge of the history of Santa Marta. Great way to get an introduction to the city and the events that shaped the local culture

Great day at Santa Marta
We had a great day thanks to this walking tour with Javier! The guide is great! Very friendly, nice, knowledgable about the history, about Santa Marta, about Colombia in general. Very good conduct of English which made the tour even better. We say some key highlights of Santa Marta and met some local vendors and artists which was a super nice touch to the entire walk. I highly recommend to everyone staying in the area!

Thankyou Javier
I had an amazing time with Javier on this tour. He told us a lot and was eager to answer all of our questions and besides the tour he was also very interested in who we were. It was a great combination of sight seeing, trying local food & drinks and having fun! I highly recommend this tour.

How does a free tour work?
Booking costs nothing. At the end, each person gives the guide what they think is fair for the experience: it's a voluntary tip.
Suggested in this destination: the equivalent of $5 to $10 USD per person, in local currency
