Pickup offered
Offered in: English and 1 more

Most city tours begin by showing you Cartagena. We begin by helping you understand it.

Your experience starts at La Popa Hill, the highest point in the city, where you'll enjoy a panoramic view that serves as a live map of Cartagena. From here, you'll identify the landmarks you'll visit and discover why the Spanish built one of the largest fortified cities in the Americas.

By seeing Cartagena from above first, every street, monument, and fortress becomes easier to understand as you explore the city.

This experience is designed for travelers who want more than sightseeing—they want to truly discover Cartagena.
