      The perfect 2 hour tour

      "Wendy was super accommodating for us as we booked a walking tour WITH VERY little notice and was able tailor the walk to our specific requests. She was amazing!

      Best guide ever!!

      "Andrea was an absolutely outstanding guide. Her knowledge of Cartagena, its history and neighbourhoods was first class. Her pride in her city and country was most impressive and she packed an enormous amount of information in a three hour period. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and personable guide, Andrea is it. It was a delight to have met her - and she knows the best coffee house in the city!! "
