    We will visit points of greatest historical and artistic interest within the Getsemani neighborhood, and we will stop to hydrate ourselves in preparation for the route to the Bazurto Market. We will take photos of the art on the walls and the colorful streets of the Getsemani neighborhood.

    This is a humble, but very colorful and important neighborhood that has earned a place as one of the coolest neighborhoods in the world according to Forbes and Travelers Magazine.

    We will enter the fascinating culinary world of the Bazurto Market; visited by ANTHONY BOURDAIN during his search for real Cartagenera food for the filming of "No Reservations".

    There we will delight ourselves with the flavors of exotic cuisine, but accessible to the most humble diners. We will discover the flavors that are part of the culinary art of an almost mythical place where very few tourists access. Your palate will be impressed with the condiments and cooking style of the Cecilia Restaurant and others around it.

    That's why culinary critic and chef Anthony Bourdain made it his favorite during his trips to Colombia!
