I loved the pairing of chocolate with rum and experiencing how the the rum transformed with it. Great explanations! Great vibes!
Denis
Adrian and Francisco gave us a fantastic experience. The rums and chocolate were all delicious, and we learned so much about all of them and how they are made. We were initially hesitant but we had heard from other travellers that this experience was well worth it, and it completely exceeded expectations. If you like rum and chocolate even a little bit, you will love this!

A group of nine of us booked the Lunatico Cartagena: Express Rum and Chocolate Tasting Experience (about $50 USD per person) through GetYourGuide. On the day of, they called to say the electricity was out and asked if we wanted to reschedule. I didn’t realize the venue was open-air until we arrived, so I asked if we could still come — and I’m so glad we did. The place is beautiful inside and out, with gorgeous hand-painted art. Even though it was a hot day, the open-air setup kept us comfortable and they were extremely accommodating from the start. Since we didn’t reschedule, they upgraded us from the Express to the full experience at no extra cost. They took their time explaining each chocolate and each rum, and how the flavors work together. Every chocolate was delicious, and they even handled an almond allergy in our group with care. The rum expert and his assistant were warm, attentive, and even offered us free beers for the inconvenience. Between the tasting, the hospitality, and the stunning city view, it ended up being an unforgettable experience — we honestly couldn’t even tell the electricity was out. They were upfront, flexible, and made sure we still had a great time, and we matched that energy. Loved it. Worth every dollar. Would absolutely do it again and recommend it to anyone visiting Cartagena.

We learnt 3 typical Colombian dishes in a really fun class. Chef Jazmina walked us through various ingredients and how to prepare them. We then sat down for an amazing 3 course meal - look forward to trying these at home!

Such a great experience! Dylan was super kind, informative, and fun! We learned so much about the history of rum & the different flavor profiles - and the chocolates were delicious! Would definitely recommend this experience :)

Ah we had the best time Dilan! Very knowledgeable and made us feel very welcome. The chelate pairings with the rum were great. It’s a unique experience that you should definitely get involved in to learn and taste local Colombian rum with great history behind them. Express experience did not feel rushed and was filled with many interesting facts as well as many laughs and great conversations. Thank you

Topside beef cooking class What a great experience! We really enjoyed the cooking class. We learned about the origins of the key ingredients and what flavors they bring to the dishes. The class was completely interactive! From chopping of veggies to deciding the amount of panela or salt to final plating. We enjoyed talking to Daniel and learning about his culinary background. Francisco, the sous chef was lightning fast making sure we had everything we needed. The food was fabulous and we received access to the recipes right away. Daniel even talked about where we could possibly get some of the ingredients when we get back home. We highly recommend this class.

We attended the cooking class with the menu “Cabrito de Pescado.” Since a large group canceled at the last minute, it ended up being just the two of us—essentially a private lesson with the founder, Maria. The entire experience was absolutely amazing. Everything was fresh, and we got to prepare each dish together with her. The location was beautiful, and everything was very clean and hygienic. The food tasted incredible. Maria was a fantastic host, and we had such a great time spending the evening with her. Francisco also supported us throughout the evening and ensured everything stayed clean and was very sweet. It was one of our highlights during our travels. We would 100% recommend this cooking class!
