Explore the colourful streets of Cartagena, see the city walls and the emblematic squares and discover the history of conquests and the Inquisition. You'll fall in love with this Colombian city!
On the day of the activity, we'll meet at the indicated meeting point to start our walking tour around Cartagena. We'll head towards the city walls, named by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, and arrive at the San Pedro Claver Square. Here, we'll admire a church with the same name, and our expert guide will tell us about the Spanish saint it represents.
We'll cross the city's old port to reach the clock tower. With its yellow walls, this icon of the city has been welcoming locals and tourists since the 19th century. Next, we'll pass through another square, Plaza de los Coches, where we'll see the statue of Pedro de Heredia, the founder of Cartagena de Indias!
We'll continue discovering all about him in the Teatro Heredia theatre, and we'll travel back in time at the Palace of the Inquisition. Did you know that this colonial house used to have torture chambers? After, we'll head to Simón Bolívar Park, the green heart of the city.
We'll wander through the city's winding streets until reaching the Santa Catalina de Alajandría Cathedral, one of the oldest cathedrals in South America. The dome, with its colors and details, has become one of the symbols of Cartagena.
Finally, we'll see the emblematic Plaza de la Aduana, a square that used to be the administrative center of the city. Plus, we'll see where Pedro de Heredia used to live and a statue of Christopher Columbus.
We'll finish the tour after 2.5 hours in the city center.
