The tour has one main goal, to help you discover those must-see places that everyone should know when visiting Cartagena.

It's easy to get lost in a new city especially in a city declared a Historical and Cultural Heritage of Humanity, where every corner has a story to tell and every street is a transition back to old times. That's why at our tours agency, we have the best bilingual guides, one of whom will accompany you throughout the city tour so you can have an engaging, informative, and primarily, safe experience.

At the top of our list of must-see places is the magnificent Fortified City which captivates with the colonial charm of its houses and cobbled streets. Another place you definitely shouldn't miss is the Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas. An imposing fortress that stands out for its military architecture and over 400 years of history filled with battles, pirates, heroes, and invaders.

The Church of San Pedro Claver is a historical gem with such a special architectural charm that many celebrities choose it for their weddings. The Cerro de la Popa and its beautiful colonial convent, the Palace of the Inquisition, the Plaza de Santo Domingo, they're all exceptional places you can’t miss when you’re in Cartagena and once seen they will stay forever in your memory.

Jessy

By the end of the week, I felt I'd made a new friend and was leaving a city I had fallen in love with. If and when we get to go back, I'll be asking Daniel to take us to more sites and share more of his favorite places with us. I can't adequately express how much his time and dedication to our trip meant to me. Absolutely wonderful tour guide.
