[Save + Share] 🇨🇴CARTAGENA, COLOMBIA TIPS🇨🇴The fam and I spent three glorious weeks in Cartagena last year and it was a vibe! Its tropical climes, long stretches of beautiful beaches, and lower cost of living made an extended visit a no brainer for our nomadic family.

Cartagena is also the center of Afro-Colombian culture, which meant this Caribbean gyal felt right at home. ✊🏾

So here are some of my recs for what to see, do, eat, and experience in Cartagena: 

🇨🇴 EXPLORE/VISIT: Historic walled city; San Felipe castle; neighborhoods of Getsemani, Bocagrande, Manga

🇨🇴 ACTIVITIES: Sunset cruise; boat tours to Rosario Island and Playa Blanca; Isla Baru, National Aviary

🇨🇴EAT & DRINK: Mar y Zielo; Hotel Movich; La Cevicheria; Lena y Carbon; Morena Restaurante; Bar 1805; Epoca [Sidebar: there are so many amazing places to eat that I might have to make a separate post 😅)

🇨🇴EXPERIENCE: Tour to Palenque to learn more about Afro-Colombian history and culture; cooking class and market tour; dance the night away in a retrofitted Chiva party bus; horse-drawn carriage ride at sunset around historic center 

🇨🇴STAY: Choose accommodation within the walled city for shorter stays. For longer visits, vacation rental apartments around the Bocagrande area are where its at! We did this but I wouldn’t recommend the condo we rented because we had an ant infestation.😅

Have you been to Cartagena and/or are interested in going?

P.S.: Colombia is beautiful, y’all. It’s so unfair that most people don’t get to experience it due to outdated perceptions about the country being unsafe/unstable.

P.S.S.: it’s ColOmbia with an “O”, not Columbia. Just a minor pet peeve of mine…😜
