Itinerary

Puerto De Cartagena

10 min

Starting point and soul of the city for more than 2,200 years. Its natural bay, one of the best in the Mediterranean, was the reason why Carthaginians, Romans and the Spanish Navy chose this place as a base of operations.
Museo Naval De Cartagena

10 min

In front of the museum, we will discover Cartagena’s naval footprint, with Isaac Peral’s submarine —a global pioneer of underwater navigation — as the protagonist. An innovation chapter that connects the city’s military past with its present.
Plaza Heroes de Cavite

5 min

A square that pays tribute to the Navy and the episodes that marked Cartagena’s role as a military city and port of reference in Spain.
Palacio Consistorial

10 min

The modernist jewel of the City Hall, with its marble facade and slate domes, places us in Cartagena at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, when the city experienced a moment of economic splendor.
Museum of the Roman Theater of Cartagena

Passing by

One of the great archaeological treasures of Spain, hidden under the city for centuries. From the outside, we will tell the story of its discovery and its role in Roman Carthage Nova.
Plaza de San Francisco

10 min

A stop on the way to talk about the nearest Cartagena: its gastronomy, its atmosphere and the customs that make this city as lively as it is historic.
Catedral de Santa Maria La Mayor

10 min

Built on the ruins of the Roman Theatre itself, this ruined cathedral witnesses the layers of history that overlap in Cartagena: Punic, Roman, medieval and contemporary.
Cerro del Molinete Archaeological Park

Passing by

The heart of Roman Carthage Nova, with its temples, streets and open-air excavated homes. Here you understand better than anywhere else the urbanism of the Roman city.
Museo Foro Romano Molinete

Passing by

In front of the old forum, the political and social center of Roman Cartagena, we will talk about the day-to-day life of its inhabitants and how a city of provinces of the Empire worked.
Gran Hotel

10 min

We close the tour in front of this emblem of modernist Carthagen architecture, symbol of the splendor of the mining bourgeoisie of the early twentieth century and final brooch to a walk through more than two millennia of history.
