César - Tour Guide in Santa Marta

I have had the privilege of living in Colombia, Mexico, and Argentina, which has enriched my understanding of diverse cultures and histories. My travels have taken me to the USA, Brazil, Panama, Cuba, Chile, France, Italy, Uruguay, Paraguay, Spain and Trinidad and Tobago, each journey adding a unique layer to my passion for exploration.

Traveling is not just a hobby for me; it’s a way of life. I love sharing my experiences and learning about the cultures of the places I visit. In particular, I am passionate about Colombia, a country with a rich history and vibrant culture. I enjoy uncovering and explaining the fascinating stories and milestones of Santa Marta and its surroundings, ensuring that every visitor leaves with a deep appreciation for this wonderful city.

Oh, and you’ll almost always see me wearing a cap or a hat to protect my bald head from the sun! It’s my signature look and a testament to my dedication to staying cool and sunburn-free while showing you around.

Cesar was super cheerful, pleasant and helpful (as I had a burn from motorbike). Talking about the tour he provided a lot of interesting information about Santa Marta, Simon Bolivar and other prominent Colombian figures. Tour passed very quickly, because it was interesting, logical and amusing! Thank you Cesar, you really made me learn more about Colombia and Santa Marta!

Response from César
Thank you very much, Roman, for your kind review. I’m really happy to know you enjoyed the tour and found the information about Santa Marta, Simón Bolívar, and Colombian history interesting and engaging. It was a pleasure sharing the city with you. I also hope your motorbike burn healed quickly and that you continued enjoying your trip through Colombia without problems afterward. Thank you again for joining the tour and for your great attitude throughout the experience. I wish you an excellent continuation of your travels in Colombia and South America. Best regards, César

I was the only person on this tour of Santa Marta with Cesar but he made me feel comfortable from the start. He was very knowledgeable about the local area, history and people and communicated very well in English. An unexpected bonus was a guided tour of the gold museum which I found fascinating. At the end of the tour Cesar helped me find a cafe on the seafront which serves great Colombian coffee and which I visited a few times over the next couple of days. All in all a positive experience and a great way to get my bearings in a new city.

Response from César
Hi, thank you very much for joining the tour and for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. I’m really happy to know you enjoyed learning about Santa Marta’s history, local culture, and especially the visit to the Gold Museum. Since you were the only traveler that day, it was nice being able to keep the experience flexible and answer all your questions along the way. I’m also glad you enjoyed the coffee recommendation by the waterfront — always good to know it became one of your favorite spots during your stay. Thank you again for your visit, and I wish you a wonderful rest of your travels in Colombia and beyond. Best regards, César

The guide never arrived and did not communicate that he would not be able to take the tour!

Response from César
Hi Tim, Thank you for your message, and I truly apologize for the inconvenience caused. On that day, I was leading a tour in a remote area with very limited connectivity, and unfortunately I was not able to receive or respond to your booking in time, as it was made on the same day. This is not the standard experience I aim to provide, and I completely understand your frustration. I appreciate your feedback, and I have already taken steps to avoid situations like this in the future. Kind regards, César
