Free Tour Historic Center & Getsemani

Unparalleled experience on foot touring Historic Cartagena and cultural traditions such as Graffiti, Salsa, African champeta, and unparalleled architecture, the result of the mixture of natives, Africans, and Spanish, as well as Lebanese migrants.

Enjoy Cartagena, two visits in one, free walking tour: Walled City and Getsemaní. We start at the Camellón de Los Mártires - Plaza de Cervantes, we move to the Clock Tower entering the Plaza del Ecuador, before the Slavery, to continue the route of slavery. There we are welcomed by the Founder Pedro de Heredia and the "Portal de Los Dulces", a feminine symbol in times of slavery. The Conquest: Trade of merchandise including that of the enslaved.

Religion and art are not alien to the tour, we will visit the San Pedro Claver Square, Churches and Cathedral, we will pass by the "Palace of the Inquisition", seat of the Tribunal of the Holy Office.

Do you like the exploits of pirates and corsairs? We will visit a Spanish bastion, construction and military strategy, we will go to the Plaza Bolivar, homage to the precursor of the Independence.

We will visit the sloths, squirrels, iguanas and monkeys that move freely through the Centennial Park.

We will enjoy GETSEMANI, the most important and colorful cultural corridor of Cartagena: umbrellas, graffiti and unparalleled architecture. We enter the Callejón Ancho, to finish the tour in the Plaza del Pozo, with salsa and African champeta.
