About this activity
Cartagena is a beautiful city, which captures the heart of all its visitors because of its colors, Caribbean climate, warm people and its historical legacy. With our Cartagena city tour we assure you the opportunity to discover the most amazing sites of the city, accompanied by an experienced tour guide. Our city tour starts off at La Torre del Reloj, the spectacular entrance to the old city of Cartagena. This entrance leads you to the commercial square, known in history as the location where the trading of slaves took place. From this site, you will walk through the charming streets of Getsemaní while listening to stories of the colonial houses and the events that account for Cartagena’s nickname “la heroica”. The Cartagena city tour continues with a visit to the Plaza De Bolivar, Gold Museum, and the Palacio de la Inquisición. Then you will go to the San Pedro Claver church, which was built in the second half of the 17th century. Afterwards, you will drive to the Castillo de San Felipe, a strong fort built on top of a mountain by the Spaniards as a strategic point to gain control of the bay, where incredible battles were fought during many centuries. There you’ll have the opportunity to discover the impressive tunnel system used in colonial times and enjoy the stunning view of the city. The city tour ends in Las Bóvedas, the perfect place to get the best handcrafts and souvenirs of Colombia. You will be free to wander around a bit there so you can admire all of the beautiful handmade products. The old city of Cartagena really is a hidden treasure. Surrounded by its imposing walls, it gives the impression of walking through a beautiful historic village preserved in time.
