cartagena customs
 
Hello all, we are sea freighting 2 bikes from the UK to Cartagena. Has anyone cleared customs by themselves from Cartagena or in Colombia? We have been told by a local agent that it's easy, but this being our first time I' m not so sure! Would using an agent be best? Also a rough idea of what port charges and clearence costs maybe if anyone has been recently. All help appreciated!

thanks
