It is an entertaining Free Tour inside the walled city, it starts in the Plaza de San Pedro Claver , continues towards the Plaza de la Aduana , a place where the purchase and sale of black slaves brought from Africa were made, then towards the public clock tower To mark the two islands of the time, which were Getsemaní and Santa Catalina, later Plaza de la Proclamation , where the independence of Cartagena de Indias was shouted, around we visited the interior of the Santa Catalina de Alejandría church , the main basilica and the Plaza of Bolívar , who was the great liberator of five countries.

Unfortunately he did not appear at the appointed time. He sent his son who did not speak English and who wanted to direct us to another guide. A rather unpleasant situation, especially since we were looking for a guide that would be to our liking according to the description posted on guru walk

Si buscas un Gurú Walker confiable y discreto (no un grupo de 40 personas con micrófonos para los súper turistas) te recomiendo a William. Es un gran guía, muy amable y muy cautivador. Él conoce muy bien la historia de Cartagena y estuvo feliz de compartirla con nosotros. Además es un personaje muy conocido en la ciudad, fue un verdadero placer visitarlo en su compañía. También compartió valiosos consejos para el resto de nuestra estadía. ¡Muchas gracias William y hasta la próxima!
