Santiago at Bukap was incredibly helpful in customizing and planning the tour to help me propose to my girlfriend. He was incredibly responsive; and Erik, our guide, was so informative and took really wonderful photos. Cannot recommend enough!

Excellent, fascinating tour to marvelous and historic places outside of Santa Marta (check the Viator description for the list), in the foothills of the incredible and geologically unique Sierra Madre. At all times we felt safe and very well taken care of. The tour guide Hugo was fully bilingual, English and (local) Spanish, very affable, and imparted innumerable insights and pearls of knowledge and interest — at the same time, he emphasized that the tour was ours to enjoy, and he went out of his way to assure just that — we enjoyed every minute. And finally, the two drivers (for the on-road and off-road portions) were absolutely professional — highly skilled and super friendly — we felt safe, even on the twistiest, bumpiest roads.

Great tour to coffee plantation and swim in the cascade.
Cascade is a 10min uphill walk from the furthest point the car can go and can be crowded but worth it.
Erik and Jefferson (the guide and driver) were amazing.
