Experience in the travels

 We have the opportunity to travel to Cartagena, and I want to quickly share the experiences we’ve had exploring this beautiful city. Quite some time ago, we went to Cartagena and enjoyed spectacular experiences with my entire family. We visited the city on the occasion of our wedding. At that time, we were able to explore much of what Colombia was and is today. We learned to navigate the route with the help of Waze technology, traveled by car, and along the way we experienced the country’s incredible beauty.

In the city of Cartagena, there are many experiences to enjoy, such as visiting Boca Grande, Barú, and Playa Blanca. You can savor seafood, especially red snapper and catfish, and also take the opportunity to talk with locals. Strolling through the streets, exploring the walled city, visiting San Felipe Castle, and discovering the historic center are unforgettable experiences. Most importantly, you can enjoy every moment, the landscapes, and the warmth of the people, who always have a special and welcoming spirit to share with everyone.
