    Walled City of Cartagena

    This option will allow you to discover the authentic soul of Cartagena without overpaying on this comprehensive shared tour that seamlessly blends dramatic history with vibrant Caribbean flavors at an unbeatable price. Your journey begins at the iconic Clock Tower with a complimentary native fruit drink, leading you through a narrative of pirates, independence, and Gabriel García Márquez’s magical realism as you explore landmarks like the Portal de Los Dulces, Plaza de la Aduana, and historic cathedrals. The experience is rich with culinary stops, including rooftop empanadas, fruit ice cream, and traditional cinnamon coffee, alongside exterior previews of major museums and a walk through the colorful art district of Getsemaní. This immersive 2.5 to 3-hour adventure culminates at a specialty distillery for a chocolate tasting and local rum shot, offering a perfect mix of culture and cuisine—just remember to bring water to stay hydrated. Note: (10:30 AM - 1:30 PM OR 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM).

To ensure a smooth trip, travelers should also pack their own towels, snacks, and beverages for this memorable, weightless mud bath adventure.
