See Barranquilla’s riverfront, Carnival Museum, historic center, and La Ventana al Mundo on a private six-hour city tour.
“The tour guide was pleasant. I would not call this a 6H tour of Barranquilla City unless it also includes the travel. The tour did not seem well thought out. I visited more places on a bike tour for $35 USD than this Gran Colombia Tour for $82 USD. That would be what I recommend if you want to get a good sweat. I paid nearly $300 USD for two tours for two people with Gran Colombia Tour and feel like I just made a donation for a bad tour. For anyone who is crazy enough to do this tour I recommend that you give them a list of places…”
