Overview

Discover Cartagena's walled city at your own pace with a self-guided walking tour that runs straight from your smartphone. No app to download, no group, no fixed departure time.

Nine stops carry you from the colourful streets of Getsemani, through the Torre del Reloj gateway and Plaza de los Coches, past the Santuario de San Pedro Claver and the Palacio de la Inquisicion, on to Plaza de Santo Domingo, the ramparts of Las Murallas and the vaults of Las Boveda. At each stop a short audio story plays while you stand in front of the place it describes, and a quiz turns the history into something you take part in.

The route covers roughly 2 km and takes about an hour, but the pace is yours: pause for a coffee, linger on the walls at sunset, pick it back up whenever you like.

Activity itinerary

Getsemani Neighborhood (Pass by)

Your starting point. Getsemani is the walled city's colourful outer quarter, full of low colonial houses, street art and small plazas. An audio story introduces the neighbourhood and the tour ahead, followed by a short quiz.

Torre del Reloj (Pass by)

The yellow clock tower that forms the main gate into the walled city. The audio explains how the gate worked and what stood on either side of it, followed by a quiz before you walk through.

Plaza De Los Coches (Pass by)

The arcaded square just inside the clock-tower gate, and the city's historic entrance point. The audio covers both what the square is today and its use as Cartagena's slave market during the colonial period.

Sanctuary of Saint Peter Claver (Pass by)

The stone church and former Jesuit monastery where Pedro Claver, who spent his life ministering to enslaved Africans arriving in Cartagena, lived and is buried. Audio story and quiz from the square outside.

Palacio de La Inquisicion (Pass by)

The baroque palace on Plaza de Bolivar that housed the tribunal of the Holy Office in Cartagena. The audio explains what the building was used for and what it holds today as a museum, followed by a quiz.

Catedral Santa Catalina de Alejandria (Pass by)

Cartagena's cathedral on Plaza de Bolivar, with its squat fortified tower and coral-stone walls. The audio covers how long it took to build and what happened to it along the way, followed by a quiz.

Plaza de Santo Domingo (Pass by)

The busy square beside Cartagena's oldest church, where Fernando Botero's reclining bronze "Gertrudis" sits among the cafe tables. Audio story and quiz from the square.

Walled City of Cartagena (Pass by)

Las Murallas, the ring of stone walls and bastions that took generations to finish and were built to keep raiders out. Walk a stretch of the ramparts with the audio playing, then take the quiz.

Las Bovedas (Pass by)

The final stop: a row of vaulted chambers built into the northern ramparts as military storerooms, later used as cells and today occupied by craft shops. A closing audio chapter and quiz end the tour here.
