Lots of walking. Load yourself up with water. a beautiful city. The tour is great however missed the convent that I really wanted to see. Otherwise it would have been a solid 5 review.

Cartagena excursion
Castro was a terrific tour guide. He tailored our excursion totally to our own needs and wants. He certainly conveyed the history and love of his city, Cartagena. Alex was our driver. He expertly managed the crazy traffic of the city.

Great tour of historical Cartagena
What a great tour this was as Nancy, our guide, was wonderful. She was so engaging and full of information and she had a great sense of humor. We were a small group so it felt like a private tour!!! It was a hot day but our bus was air conditioned so comfortable. Traffic here is ‘loco’ but the driver was an expert so it all worked out!!! Loved the views from the convent and the Castillo and all the history behind these sights!! Very worthwhile tour and I highly recommend it!!!!

Amazing day in Cartagena
Nic was AMAZING and so accommodating. We had a wonderful day with him learning about Cartagena and Getsemani! Everything was timed perfectly so that we wouldn’t be too hot at each stop.

Cartagena!!! Walled city etc.
We had a wonderful time with Carlos on our private tour.We were very relaxed and learned so much from Carlos about the history of Cartagena and Columbia. He was very attentive and showed us many things we were pleasantly surprised to see.

Fabulous Tour & Guide
Amazing tour. Very thorough. Our guide clearly told the history of the fortress & Getsemani neighborhood and all the areas we walked thru and gave us suggestions for other places to visit & food to try. Very open & interested in sharing his knowledge of Cartagena. Fabulous guide!
