Pleasurable Cartagena Tour Package for 2 Days

hotel Similar 3star

Bienvenidos a Colombia! Welcome to Colombia. Cartagena is one of South America’s most historic cities. The old city, particularly the inner walled town, is the main attraction – it’s packed with beautiful churches, monasteries, plazas and mansions. Your hotel is located in the vibrant Getsemani neighborhood, a part of the old town with loads of colorful street art and an authentic feel. Your adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 6 pm. After the meeting, step out for an orientation walk with your leader to get a feel for the city (note that this may take place tomorrow morning instead).

Spend some free time getting to know the old and new of Cartagena. Wander the old city, shop for local handicrafts, head up to San Felipe de Barajas Castle (the largest of the city’s fortresses) or take boat to Punts Arenas or Playa Blanca for a well-deserved swim in the Southern Caribbean. Otherwise, book yourself in a tour out of town to the Volcan de Lodo El Tuamotu. Instead of lava, this peculiar volcano spews a cream-like mud that is said to contain many healing properties. Enter for a strange bathing experience, then wash the muddiness off in the nearby lagoon. In the evening, perhaps head to one of Cartage’s hippest eateries, Restaurant Intern. Housed in a women’s prison, the restaurant opened in December 2016 with the aim of giving inmates skills and a higher likelihood of integrating back into society when their prison sentence is over. Local celebrities and even the Columbia president have eaten here, and while it isn’t a budget option, it is definitely a unique experience, and you’ll get an authentic Columbia meal.
