The splendid old city of Cartagena was once a stronghold for both Spanish conquerors and pirates of the Caribbean. You can learn about its varied history on a guided half-day tour.

  • The Walled City: Ancient walls and fortresses were originally constructed to keep pirates at bay. Today, the area is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit The Vaults, a former prison site built within the Walled City, that now serves as a marketplace for local artisans selling handcrafted goods.
  • Colonial architecture is prevalent in Cartagena; you’ll also see republican and Italian-style buildings, such as with the Cathedral’s bell tower.
  • Cartagena City Tour Explore the city’s architecture and expansive views of the sea and port zones, as you make your way to the San Felipe castle-fortress on San Lazaro Hill.

Days 3–4: Bogota

On Day 3, you’ll start your day with a leisurely breakfast and have plenty of time to stroll the beaches, before flying to Bogota, Colombia’s cosmopolitan capital city. After settling in, you’ll have the rest of the day to explore, including checking out the lively Zona Rosa district. The following day, choose to take in the city on your own, or opt for the optional morning tour to see La Candelaria district, the Botero Museum, and the Cathedral.

  • La Candelaria: Old Spanish buildings with hidden interior gardens line the streets of Bogota’s colonial district; the Cathedral, first constructed in 1539, houses important religious artifacts.
  • Cerro Monserrate: The city looks splendid from the top of this mountain in the middle of the city, reaching heights of more than 10,000 feet above sea level. Those who choose to add on this additional adventure should spend some time at El Señor Caído Shrine, drawing pilgrims and tourists alike. This tour is a separate option from the morning tour, and will be completed in the afternoon.
  • Botero Museum: Works of Picasso, Renoir, Monet, and Matisse hang side-by-side with original sculptures and paintings by Fernando Botero.

Day 5: Return Flight to Miami
