Discover CartagenaŒÍs rich history and beautiful colonial architecture on a guided walking tour of the cityŒÍs traditional old center. Learn about the culture of Cartagena and its interesting architecture from your knowledgeable guide, and visit such beautiful sites as Plaza de Bolí_var, the Cathedral of Cartagena, San Pedro Claver Square and San Pedro Church
Meet your guide in a centrally located point and begin your 2-hour walking tour of the historic neighborhoods in the cityŒÍs Old Town. As you walk, admire CartagenaŒÍs elaborate colonial architecture and learn about the interesting culture and history of this Colombian city from your expert guide. You’ll visit the inner walled section of Old Town, which is packed with churches, plazas and palaces.
Start with a visit to Plaza de Bolí_var, formerly known as Plaza de Inquisicií_n. Home to some of the cityŒÍs most elegant colonial buildings, Plaza de Bolí_var is a must-see while in old town Cartagena. Passing numerous outdoor cafes and the large statue of Simon Bolí_var in the center of the plaza, make your way to the Cathedral of Cartagena.
Dating back to the 16th century, the cathedral is located across the plaza from the Government Palace. Discover the cathedralŒÍs beautiful colonial architecture up-close as you take a walk inside with your guide.

Nearly preserved in its original form, the interior of the cathedral is simply decorated with massive semicircular archways supported on large stone columns.
Continue on to San Pedro Church, in nearby San Pedro Claver Square. Exploring the church with your guide, youŒÍll learn the history behind this imposing building, which dates back to the first half of the 18th century. Admire the beautiful stained-glass windows and high altar constructed from Italian marble.
