Overview

Discover Cartagena from the inside out!

Explore the living essence of the Walled City on a guided tour combining history, culture and local life. Accompanied by our professional wireless audio system, you will hear every detail clearly while enjoying the freedom to walk and take photos at your own pace.

Immerse yourself in the stories that made Cartagena the most fortified city in Latin America: the pirate attacks, the secrets of its colonial architecture and the deep Afro-Caribbean footprint that defines its identity.

Our guide Beyond will take you through the most iconic places — the Clock Tower, Customs Square, Bolivar Square, the Palace of the Inquisition, San Pedro Claver and the walls — sharing anecdotes that connect the past with the current energy of the city.

This is the perfect tour to start your journey in Cartagena: authentic, deep and with an immersive audio experience that makes a difference.
