About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- V2419ICjeremym0 contributionsRosario and Cholon IslandsHad alot of fun.Blue water, good food, safe, beautiful eye candy. At Cholon island you order whatever seafood and drinks you want, then pay at the end. You can also pay extra to jet ski. Plenty of music, bring sun blink, hydrate in advance and eat healthy. It's hot there.Written 22 November 2024
- Lindsey B N0 contributionsFun day and great crew!We had a great day boating around the islands. Our crew was attentive, professional and fun. The boat was in great shape and very comfortable. 10/10 recommend.Written 9 October 2024
- tombL1570LY0 contributionsGreat time for my brothers bday!!!We came down to Cartagena Colombia for my brother Bobs birthday. One of the best days we had was renting a private boat and going to the Rosario islands. We also went to Cholon and to Baru island at Playa Blanca. The captain and his assistant were awesome and they made the day. If you are thinking about renting a boat, yacht or catamaran in Cartagena then Botegena is by far the best company there is. One of the best things you can do when on vacation in Cartagena is to go have an island party day. The payment system Botegena has is very easy and we reserved directly thru their website. Again! There are so many people in Cartagena trying to sell you things including boat and island trips but when you find a good company like this one you got to stick with them. We will see Botegena again next year for a boat rental!Written 6 October 2024

- P8383YMfrankb0 contributionsTruly magicalI took a very special and amazing woman out on a couples cruise on Amor Y Amistad (Colombian Valentines Day). It was an amazing experience that is only written in books and shown in the movies. Everything from arriving to the dock to getting off the boat was amazing. The smell of the roses, the sound of the music, and the view of the city lights made this the most unforgettable night in our life. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is a true romantic that longs for a magical experience. I also recommend the photographer to capture all the moments you will share.Written 24 September 2024

Brayan was our host and did an excellent job of taking care of us - we did a snorkeling tour along with stopping by a private beach club where we lounged all day.

- B1037BMgabrielp0 contributionsBelow Deck Cartagena with BrayanPerfect day trip to cap off our time in Cartagena. Secured our yacht for the day and the crew came ready to show us the best parts of all the beautiful islands in the area. A little snorkeling fun as we hunted for Escobar’s missing single engine plane. Beach party with Caribbean beats, and hookah. Swim up private beach and a ride into a majestic sunset to close our day. All we did was book it. Brayan did all the work. Make sure to request him and don’t worry, his English is great.Written 8 August 2024

Brayan and his team were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. We booked a private yacht for a group of six from 9 AM to 5 PM, and Brayan meticulously coordinated an itinerary that perfectly balanced leisure and party. He enriched our journey with fascinating historical insights about the Rosario Islands and the surrounding areas, making the trip even more engaging.
Brayan ensured we had an incredible time, consistently replenishing our drinks, taking our photos, and recommending a delightful spot for lunch. His assistance extended beyond the boat as he helped translate with the locals when we wanted to jet ski. The entire experience was seamlessly organized, allowing us to relax and enjoy without any worries.
We highly recommend booking with Brayan and his company for your visit to Cartagena!

We had an awesome boat day with Daniel and Rodolfo! They gave us a little tour along the way to provide some context to what we were seeing which I really appreciated. They took us to some really cool spots and made sure we were safe along the way. They also did a great job making sure we enjoyed ourselves, allowing us to decide when we went from one place to another. Overall I was a huge fan and would recommend to any traveler visiting Cartagena. Honestly, I’d recommend this tour early in your Cartagena trip because my only regret was not allowing the time to visit all their great recommendations. Would rate them ten stars if I could!

My family and I used Botegena for a private tour of the Rosario Islands. We were visiting from Canada so it was great that Danny, one of the crew, spoke perfect English. The crew was attentive, considerate and made us feel safe. My two kids had a great time on the boat! They were able to accommodate our requests and were fun tour guides. I highly recommend using Botegena for a private tour to Spanish and English speakers alike.

We were recommended by a hotel in the centro to rent from Anyeli with this company. It was a great suggestion. We were bombarded by street commission guys trying to rent us boats and tours and it was pretty overwhelming. Anyeli was very professional and there were no suprises or hidden cost. We had the most magical day in the Rosario islands. The captian and the assistant on the boat were great and helped us at many times (like lunch) that we def would have struggled otherwise with the island workers. Highly recommend!

We went with my parents and brothers, we rented the boat and we thought it would be small, but in reality it is super good, it has a bathroom and a shaded area. They gave us a quieter tour because of my parents, but I recommend it. You can stop wherever and for as long as you want. The entire team was always in contact and attentive. From payment until the day of the tour. We rented the Blue Horizonte.

We went for my best friend's bachelorette party, 11 girls. Of the 5 days we went to Cartagena, this was the best, Brayan, Jose and Adolfer were the best on the boat, exceptional attention, they did not let us be without something to drink or eat in hand always, a lot of order, and a attitude 10/10 and 100% pending of everything we needed. We chose our itinerary and the islands we wanted to go to. We would repeat it a thousand times and if you go to Cartagena with a large or small group, you cannot miss this experience.

It. was. awesome. This was the best part of the trip to Cartagena. We rented the boat for 15 people even though we were only 4 people. We assume that we give us the bigger boat and we were right. So much space and the captain and assistant gave us better attention than any resturant we went to in Cartagena.
Anyeli was super professional and easy to deal with.

An overall great experience from the first contact. Anyeli net us at the dock with our bilingual guide Isabel.
We boarded the boat and had a fun ride. The boat held 12 people and we were a group of 8. The boat had the Captain and the first mate.
We spent an entire day at Cholon and our guide Isabel was very helpful with helping us with the staff at Cholon.
Not a single issue all day. I recommend this company to anyone who wants to go anywhere.

We had an amazing time in CArtagena and this was one of the highlights of the whole trip. Went to the islands and snorkeled with fish, had lunch at a cool beach club, went to a party island Cholon that was lit and then chilled at a beach half way back to Cartagena to wind down. Just an incredible day!

Friends do yourselves a favor and rent a boat with Botegena. Ask for Vanessa as guide and Dani as captain. Have lunch at a beach club and snorkel. The BEST are the piña coladas on the islands, the fish is very fresh.

How many hours for the 850,000 rental? Also can you go to the aquarium which I understand as an additional fee? I wanted to do the aquarium and some snorkeling from my family of three
