Cartagena On Your Own
Not a fan of a stuffy, timed-to-the-minute tour with a rigid itinerary? Then this entirely personalized Cartagena On Your Own tour is perfect for you!
If you feel that some tours are too stiff, too rigidly assembled, or miss out on some of the stops you'd like to visit, fear not, the Cartagena On Your Own tour is here. Along with a knowledgeable guide, make your way around the city and see the sights you want to see. On a scenic, narrated ride to downtown Cartagena, listen to the fascinating tales of famous figures, history, and more from your professional tour guide on an air-conditioned vehicle. Once you make it to Cartagena, your guide will give you a brief overview of the city's top attractions, and then it's all up to you! Make your way through the picturesque streets of the city as you visit attractions like the Palacio de la Inquisition, also known as the Inquisition Museum. There, you can view haunting exhibits of torture instruments, as well as pre-Columbian, colonial, and independence era art. You can also walk through the three sections of the Old City, including historic El Centro, commercial San Diego, and San Pedro, once the home of city nobles. Following the end of your ninety-minute free time in the city, rejoin your guide and transportation to get back to the cruise ship pier.
