The vibrant streets of Cartagena beckon to be explored on foot. Discover the Historic Center with an expert guide who will unveil every nuance. You will be told about both the past and the present of Cartagena as you visit landmarks like the Clock Tower and the statue of Don Pedro de Heredia, the city’s founder, as well as less crowded areas of the old city.
Throughout the tour, you will notice the diverse influences — romantic, Moorish, colonial, military, Arab, Spanish, and American — that have shaped Cartagena.
You will also pass by the Palace of the Inquisition, one of the city’s most emblematic buildings, and the Sanctuary of San Pedro Claver, dedicated to the Spanish priest and missionary known as the “Slave of the slaves” for his commitment to caring for Africans brought as slaves to the Spanish colonies.
