Experience Colombia

Escape to the crystal-clear waters and white sand beaches of Playa Blanca on Rosario Islands, just 100km off the shore of Cartagena. The Rosario Islands are part of the Corales del Rosario National Park making it a protected area full of biodiversity and coral reefs, perfect for snorkeling, swimming and admiring the beauty of Columbia.

Located just outside of Cartagena, Totumo Mud Volcano is a small, once active volcano with huge benefits and an even bigger history. Relax in its pool of naturally warm ash mud that is known for the healing properties. After, your guide will lead you to Manzanillo del Mar Lake to rinse off before starting your next adventure.

Located just a short distance from the historic center of Cartagena, Getsemaní offers visitors a unique experience in an authentic neighborhood. The streets are alive with excitement, color and engaging street art. Don’t forget to try the delicious variety of street food including empanadas, dedidos de queso and amazingly fresh fruit.

Overlooking the grand city, the huge castle of Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas is not to be missed on your visit. This grand construction was started in 1639 and completed 150 years later. A crowning landmark in the city, visitors can walk through the battlements, explore underground passages and admire the alluring architecture.

Delve into the fascinating world of Colombian gold and emeralds. The intimate Museo del Oro Zenú holds a fascinating collection of the gold and pottery of the Zenú (also known as Sinú) people, who inhabited modern day Colombia before the Spanish Conquest. Special exhibitions and guided tours are offered in both English and Spanish. Caribe Jewelry was founded in 1983 and throughout the years, this jewelry has undergone an exponential growth from a small workshop to a consolidated large family business, well-known among the jewelry stores in Cartagena for its quality and exceptional service.
