Overview

Get ready to party like a local! Hop aboard your vibrant chiva bus — Cartagena’s iconic open-air party truck — and dance through the city’s illuminated colonial streets to the beat of live crossover music. Feel the Caribbean energy all around you as your animator gets the whole bus moving, cruise past the historic Castillo San Felipe, and snap unforgettable photos at the famous Old Shoes Monument and the Cartagena Letters. Whether you’re traveling solo, with friends, or celebrating a special night out, this is Cartagena nightlife at its most electric — non-stop music, dancing, and pure rumba energy from start to finish.

What's included

  • Crossover music on board
  • Traditional chiva party bus with a live guide/animator keeping the energy up and crossover music blasting all night long.
  • Local guide/animator (Spanish)
  • Alcoholic Beverages
  • English-speaking guide (available on request, extra cost)

What to expect

  1. Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas
    Pass by
    Ride past the imposing Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas, one of the largest Spanish fortifications ever built in the Americas. As your chiva rolls by this 17th-century stronghold illuminated at night, your guide shares stories of pirates, sieges, and the battles that shaped Cartagena’s history — all while the music keeps the party going.
  2. Monumento a los Zapatos Viejos
    10m
    Stop at the beloved Monumento a los Zapatos Viejos, a bronze tribute to Cartagena’s poetic soul and its famous ‘old shoes’ — a symbol of loyalty and lasting love inspired by the city’s folklore. Snap photos, soak in the local charm, and get ready for more chiva vibes as the night rolls on.
  3. Walled City of Cartagena
    10m
    End the night beneath the giant illuminated ‘Cartagena’ letters — the city’s most iconic photo spot. Strike a pose with the group before the chiva rolls on for the final stretch of the party.
