We had a great experience, Olinto showed us a side of Columbia we could not experience without him and his team. Also amazing that it was only us, no other tourist or people on the entire preserve except local farmers and a family living there. We went with our family, aged 10 to adults and all enjoyed the hike, we saw monkeys and other animals and the team did a great job explaining the ecosystem, fauna and animals. We also enjoyed an excellent lunch and will definitely do this again. I highly recommend Olinto and his team.

Olinto is a fantastic tour guide with exceptional knowledge of the land, history, and hidden gems. He was clear and kind in helping us make arrangements and we loved spending the day with him. His relationships with local landowners made the trip even more special.

I went on The Howling Trail hike with Olinto. It was an absolutely amazing experience! He is so knowledgeable about the different plants and the area (as well as very friendly). He has a clear passion for the environment (as well as Colombia), which comes through during the tour. We were able to see animals as well as varying species of plants, making for a very exciting day! I would recommend his tour to anyone who wants an unforgettable experience!

This hike is absolutely incredible, led by a guide who is clearly passionate about the area and wildlife within the Tropical Dry Forest. He is extremely attentive and friendly. The trail itself is just over 4 miles roundtrip and while there is a steeper section, most of it is flat and easy to navigate. The exotic flora and fauna are abundant and this is one of the only areas near Cartagena to see howler monkeys and cotton-top tamarins in the wild!

I recently did El Sendero del Aullador with Taroa Adventures, guided by Olinto (“Ollie”), and it was honestly one of the most inspiring trips I’ve ever taken. From the very first WhatsApp message, you could feel his professionalism and care: clear instructions, what to bring, safety tips, and even small details like clothing recommendations to protect us from the elements. On the trail, Ollie was incredibly attentive, calm, and patient, always checking how everyone was doing. His knowledge of the forest, wildlife, and local culture is impressive, and he explains everything in a way that makes you feel both safe and deeply connected to the place. I never once felt rushed or worried – we were in very good hands. What really stood out is that his care didn’t stop when the tour ended. Afterwards, he sent us fantastic recommendations for places to visit and eat in Cartagena, and they turned out to be some of the best spots of our entire trip. If we ever go to Santa Marta or anywhere else in this region, I honestly wouldn’t want to go without Ollie as our guide. 100% recommended – both Taroa Adventures and especially Ollie.

Olinto from Tarao adventures and crew did an amazing job of taking us for a long hike. They come well prepared with very proactive plan. We were able to see all 3 types of monkeys - endsngered tamarin, howling and capuchin monkeys along with diversity of birds. It is a good hike if you are in Cartagena.

Olito is a great guide. He has a personal relationship with everyone you meet. And it's a great opportunity to learn about the area and what Colombians thinks about political events, tourism as an industry, etc. On the hike, our conversations are all about nature but in the car, I was more interested in Colombian culture, history, political climate, challenges, and real advantages. As for the hike, be prepared to see things that you didn't expect...and NOT see see things that you hope to. These animals aren't in a cage so there's no guarantee you'll see a howler monkey. We didn't. We heard them. We got very close. But never saw one. We did see the little tamarins, a snake, frogs, snails, all sorts of weird trees and bugs. (I think Olinto likes the bugs the most.) What to bring: tips for everyone involved. I learned from a different guide that most Colombians make only $2 American dollars a day on average. There's a constant hustle. So your $10 can really make a difference to someone. Light weight clothes that will protect you from bugs but not overheat you. That Colombian humidity is no joke. You will be sweaty even when not working hard. Bug repellent. The mosquitos are plentiful.

Extraordinary experience with Oli and Jesus on this hike. Everything about the trip was easy and straightforward. This is a unique ecosystem with remarkable biodiversity. It was thrilling to see the critically endangered wooly capped tamarins that are endemic to this area, as well as a wide range of beautiful birds, insects, and animals (see photos). I highly recommend this trip for birders and naturalists who want to experience this remarkable part of the natural world.

I highly recommend this experience. Oli was our guide during a very memorable hike in the Colombian dry forest. During the trek we saw several groups of cotton-top tamarins and red howler monkeys, along with other interesting birds and smaller critters. Howler vocalizations often filled the forest, making the experience even more thrilling. The provided breakfast and lunch were very good, and the breaks gave us a chance to learn about Colombia and get to know one another. I really appreciated Oli's communication leading up to the hike and his punctuality, but especially his friendly demeanor and passion for his country's flora and fauna. I've been fortunate to book similar experiences around the world, but our day with Oli stands out. Thank you!
