5.00Safe, fun, highly educational, personable. Highly recommend this operator & experience. Paying the pittance extra for the private island was absolutely worth it. Wait until you meet the resident racoon (but mind you, he's an ankle biter). The roads get a little crazy, but you're almost there when they do.
Outstanding local experience — highly recommended

5.00We had an excellent experience with the Unique Local Crabbing & Net Fishing Experience with Lunch on the Beach, operated by Everything Cartagena. The owner, Michael, was responsive from the beginning and provided clear, helpful information in advance so we knew exactly how to prepare. Communication was smooth and professional. Our guide, Andres, was truly outstanding, one of the best guides we have ever had. He is knowledgeable, passionate about sharing local culture and history, and genuinely attentive to guests. He also has a strong international mindset and thoughtfully guided us on tipping the local fisherman appropriately, which we appreciated. Andres stayed fully engaged with us throughout the entire experience. He danced and played drums with us on the island, encouraged me when I struggled with net fishing, and shared great conversations with us during lunch. If you are looking for a meaningful local experience in Cartagena, this tour is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended.

5.00We were picked up at our hotel in the old town. The driver sent a picture of himself and his car so we could meet up easily. Once we met our local guide/fisherman, we toured the mangroves for a short time before stopping to try fishing by casting a large round net. I need more practise at this!! After that we checked our crab traps, and toured some more of the channels. Then we returned to the coast and had a delicious fish lunch along with the crabs we had caught. Part of the visit had us walking in the knee high water of the mangrove. The bottom was sandy and easy to walk on; no water shoes needed. As you are on the water so much apply LOTS of sunscreen.
Crabbing, fishing and optional private Island Tour.

5.00This is an all around great experience. Add the private Island to the tour! Dance, drink, tour and laugh. The host at the Island made it very well worth the stop. Very friendly and great service. This was very fun. The locals hosting the tour are very welcoming and nice. They took care of us and made sure we had everything we needed before we started the tour. Canoeing through the mangroves was relaxing and provided shade from the sun. Catching crab was epic! Learning to throw the net was so fun. I am not a big fan of crab eating but the cooking option was worth the try. Get into the water when the canoe is stopped. Enjoy the trip and experience. Do not miss out.
Crabbing in the lagoons...

5.00Crabbing in the lagoons with a local fisherman was a serene and unique experience, made even better by our knowledgeable guide and translator, Andres. We enjoyed spotting local wildlife, including bird species and a curious raccoon, while learning about the area’s traditions. The best part was cooking and tasting the freshly caught crabs — incredibly sweet and delicious. A peaceful and authentic excursion that we highly recommend!

5.00We had a wonderful time on this tour! The tour company owner's communication was fantastic. Omar (driver), Andres (translator/guide) & Thomas (fisherman) all made the tour so enjoyable...they took such great care of us! Taught us how to throw & check the crab cages & how to throw a cast net. The ride through the mangroves & channels was beautiful & relaxing. We did end up adding the optional island visit and were glad we did. The tour ended with a nice lunch. Chicken or fish with rice, salad, plantains & the crab that we caught. I would highly recommend this tour. Authentic & unlike any of the other experiences we've had in Colombia.

5.00Overall, it was a great trip! We're so glad we did it. The kids loved the experience. We caught 7 crabs and then had it for lunch. We also tried fishing like the locals do it. It's much harder than it looks! The mangroves were quite something and very interesting. Def. worth the trip. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable too. The trip organizers were very organized and responsive. We received the picture of the car that would pick us up along with the guide, so we knew who we were looking for. Must do!

5.00We had a lovely day in Boquilla- learning about the crabbing and fishing process back in the day. Andres our guide was knowledgeable, and our capitan and fisherman, Elias, was gregarious, welcoming, joyous, and a wonderful teacher. We also had delicious fried fish and crab for lunch. The mangroves were beautiful to explore. Thank you!
Great experience

5.00I had no idea what to expect. The main office was with us every step of the way - told us who was picking us up. The fishing and lunch (worth the extra money) was terrific.
Strong Recommendation

5.00The entire experience was amazing. I have nothing but good things to say about the every aspect of this tour. The guide and translator were both fantastic. This is also ran by locals and you will be contributing to the people here in Cartagena rather than lining the pockets of a large company.
