Outward_bound's Port Reviews of Cartagena (Colombia), Puerto Limon, Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas, San Diego Celebrity Constellation cruise in December 2010
Deluxe Cartagena with a visit to the Fort Pleasant tour, though it would have helped if the guide spoke English better and if the audio systems were better maintained (and cleaner)
Great fun being pulled on special carts deep into the rain forest behind a John Deer tractor. Awesome tour guide who truly took the time to share his love and enthusiasm (and his deep knowledge) of this beautiful country and its people. Great 'driver' who did not mind jumping off his seat every few minutes to capture poison arrow frogs and other small creatures to show us and allow us to photograph them.
Hard to see the divers and to take their photos due to light bulbs strung on the lines on the tour boat. The very self-satisfied and needy-for-praise tour guide tried very hard to push and extension of 'free city tour with shopping' which ended up being a 10-minute drive to a few higher-end stores followed by a 45 minute demonstration of 'pressure-selling' tactics
Mexican cooking experience. The cooking itself was fun (as was the 'eating' part :). We also enjoyed the drive to the restaurant, which took us through non-touristy areas of the city and the outskirts. The guide had excellent English and readily answered all of our questions. I would have given it a '5', but I just don't care for tender boats...
