    Martin was great. He was very knowledgable and professional. He showed us all the historical sites of Cartagena and explained them in great detail. Highly recommend using his services.

    “Siempre escuche muy buenos comentarios acerca de Martin Rosales, pero despues de vivir la experiencia de hacer un tour con el como guia pude ver que los comentarios quedaron pequeños ya que me parecio un exelente guia… conoce muy bien la historia de la ciudad y la expresa de una manera muy clara y fluida.—- Lo recomiendo totalmente!

    “Martin is a lovely, gentle man who is a fountain of knowledge on all things Colombian.
    I had an enjoyable day learning lots about the city of Cartagena in the City Tour and Walking Tour combined. He is very good at his job and I can highly recommend him.”

    Martin gave me a walking tour on my first day in Cartagena. He is an excellent guide. He is extremely enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable about all of the sights and places of the city. I was very fortunate to have him as a guide and would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Cartagena.
