Private Tour of Cartagena Historical Center

About this activity

Join us to get to know Cartagena on a private tour that goes through the main landmarks of its historic center, without having to access the interior of the monuments. From the impressive modernist façade of the Consistorial Palace to the majestic Roman Theatre seen from the outside, we will relive the great moments of this millennial city. We will walk along the elegant Calle Mayor, discover the Punic and Roman vestiges,

and we will feel the proximity of the port, which has marked the naval and Mediterranean character of Cartagena since its origins. An ideal experience for those who want to know the essence of the city in a comfortable, cultural and personalized way.
