Public transit troubles don't stop a great trip

Bill_D, Mar 2023

The star of the visit was actually my travel guide, Kevin. Through incredible traffic, uncertain bus schedules, protests blocking the roadways and various other challenges, Kevin was able to navigate a way from Cartagena to Palange. The local guide was interesting and dramatic and it was fascinating to hear the 400 + year story. This is probably my favorite visit in my 10 days in Colombia, though the public transit may not be for everyone.
