Essential Free walking tours of Santa Marta

We had a great time with Javier, he ran the tour even though it was only 2 of us and was full of really interesting knowledge and information with a real passion for teaching people about his city. Thank you Javier!

Insanely knowledgeable.

Martin was a joy to be around. He knows a lot and is very passionate about Colombia - especially Santa Marta. He answered our dumb questions and spent more time than he needed to. Highly recommend Martin!

We had such a nice time on our walk with Javier! He talked to us about the history of Santa Marta and the area and also gave us great recommendations for street food, juices etc. We can definitely recommend doing this tour!

I really enjoyed this tour with Javier. He explained how the city became what it is from the local tribes to today explaining the good and the bad. I would highly recommend it.

Amazing tour! Santa Marta is a small city and we were expecting a small scale tour but Javier really brought the city to life. We visited the gold museum, and had some historical information followed by conversations with locals, legends of the past and food/ drink that locals have. 10/10

Javier was such a friendly guide. We really enjoyed spending a couple of hours with him.

It was great tour, lots of tips of local food, drinks

Javier hat eine Spannendw Tour für uns gestaltet! Es war mehr wie mit einem Freund unterwegs zu sein als in einer Tour! Ein Toller Guide

We had a wonderful city tour with Martin! He was very friendly and shared an incredible amount of information, especially about the history of Santa Marta. There were so many fascinating details and interesting facts we hadn’t heard before. The tour was easy and enjoyable to follow, and it was great communicating with him throughout. We were pleasantly surprised that he spoke some German quite well, and his English was excellent too. Martin made a real effort to answer all our questions and even gave us plenty of helpful tips for exploring the city and planning other activities. The tour lasted a bit longer than the scheduled hour, but we really appreciated that – it showed how passionate he is about what he does. We can highly recommend Martin’s tour to anyone visiting Santa Marta. We would definitely do it again!

Great tour! Javier was fantastic, good communication. Thank you

Die Free Walking Tour war super! Javier war sehr freundlich, wusste unglaublich viel und hat alles spannend erklärt. Es hat uns wirklich sehr gefallen – absolut empfehlenswert!

Amazing tour! Javier managed to combine all important topics (history, customs, food and culture) in a great tour. We walked just the right amount, met some locals, saw all the main sights and had a fruit tasting at the end. But apart from the content, Javier’s way of explaining everything was super entertaining and time just flew by. Totally recommend it!

Absolutely brilliant guide. Javi was brilliant. So much information but in a relaxed conversational tone. Highly recommend 👌

It was a very informative tour about the history of Santa Marta. Javier could answer all our questions well. On top Javier gave us some insides on the local street food, ice cream and local fruits. We enjoyed the tour and can highly recommend a tour with Javier.

Very knowledgeable and friendly guide! Highly recommended.

Fantastic

Mir hat die Tour sehr gut gefallen. Es war sehr informativ und wir haben sogar etwas über die verschiedenen kolumbianischen Früchte erfahren und konnten einen Saft bestellen. Sehr zu empfehlen.

We greatly enjoyed our tour with Javier. A great balance of information about the history and culture of Santa Marta. We particularly enjoyed the recommendations for local food, taking the opportunity to taste some of these during the tour. Javier was very knowledgeable and led the group at a great pace, we would highly recommend to anyone visiting Santa Marta!

Great tour with Javi - perfect mix of history, stories and culinary knowledge

Javi was a great informative guide & story teller & and took us through some places where we could (no pressure) buy ice cream and smoothies, which was an added bonus & just what I needed with the hot sunny weather.

Great Tour! A must see!

Javier is nice and full of thought.

Great and snap shot of Santa Marta! Really good pace and loved the recommendation. Highly recommend
