- Bahia - Cartagena’s bay has historically served as the commercial gateway to America. Its strategic location and exceptional natural features offer stunning, paradisiacal views enhanced by the Sun, the Sea, and the beautiful City Walls.
- Monumento a los Zapatos Viejos - This monument, dedicated to one of the city’s greatest poets, is a symbol of Cartagena. The sculpture embodies the love for its humble yet proud origins, representing a deep sense of belonging.
- Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas - Erected in 1657 during the Spanish colonial era, this castle is recognized as one of Colombia’s seven wonders. Situated on San Lázaro hill, it withstood numerous attacks from the English and French, with French commander Baron de Pointis capturing it in 1697. Entrance and a guided tour are included.
- Monumento a la India Catalina - This monument, crafted by sculptor Eladio Gil, honors American roots. According to legend, Catalina was a warrior born in nearby Galerazamba, later sold as a slave in Santo Domingo. In 1533, Pedro de Heredia brought her to Cartagena as an interpreter. She played a crucial role in the beginning of miscegenation in Cartagena de Indias by facilitating Spanish settlement.
- Centro Historico - The tour concludes with a walking tour of the Historic Center, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984. The Walled City of Cartagena de Indias, the city’s old quarter, is rich with historical sites and character, including churches, convents, monasteries, squares, colonial buildings, houses, and palaces. Visitors can also enjoy the finest shops and exclusive brands.
- Torre del Reloj - Initially known as Boca del Puente, the Clock Tower served as the main entrance to the walled city. Its side arches were once used as a chapel and armory, now open as public walkways. In 1888, a republican-style tower with a clock was added.
