What to expect

Beyond Cartagena’s beaches lies a little-known story: resilient communities, inspirational leaders and a cuisine with a local soul. This is not traditional tourism; it is your invitation to deeply connect and be an active part of Cartagena’s social transformation.

Your day starts at 8:00 a.m. in the vibrant neighborhood of Gethsemane. Through the Granites of Peace Foundation, you will visit community projects that promote education, sustainability and economic empowerment. You will meet exceptional women leading change and community gardens promoting food security and local wellbeing.

Back in Gethsemane, overlooking the iconic Castillo San Felipe, you will live an authentic cooking class guided by a local chef. You will prepare iconic dishes with fresh ingredients from the communities visited, taste authentic flavors and talk about how gastronomy can transform lives.

Your participation directly supports the Granitas de Paz Foundation by allocating 40% to social and educational projects.

Find out. Cook. Transform.
