DAY 1

Transfer In Centro or Bocagrande, Cartagena City Tour with San Felipe Castle

You will be picked up from the airport and transferred to your hotel in Cartagena de Indias. After some rest your guide will take you to Cartagena, a beautiful city that exhibits all the charm of its colors, climate, warm people and historical legacy.

This tour begins with a visit to the San Felipe Castle, a fort built by the Spanish on top of a mountain to gain control of the bay. There, you will have the opportunity to discover the impressive architecture and history behind it. The city tour of Cartagena will continue with a pleasant walk through the Historic Center where you will visit the Clock Tower in the Plaza de la Aduana, a place used for the trade of enslaved Africans during the colonial period. Then you will go to the square in front of the San Pedro Claver Church, a historic church that exhibits art and religious history. In that square you will have a short break for a refreshing juice or coffee.

Finally you will leave through the Clock Tower to pass by Centenario Park, a beautiful oasis in the middle of downtown where free sloths, marmosets, iguanas and other animals live and finish our tour in Getsemaní, a very special neighborhood, very colorful, full of graffiti, flowers, colorful houses and music everywhere.
