Free Great Center Tour: Walled City & Getsemani (Spanish)
- 3 hours
- Cartagena
- Spanish
- Small groups
Visit the Great Center of Cartagena: Santo Domingo and Getsemaní neighborhoods together in one tour. A different perspective of our historical but current social and economical contrasts!
Visiting both Santo Domingo and Getsemaní districts will give you a bigger picture about how our lives during colonial times were divided by social classes but connected for achieving local independence.
We will experience Cartagena in a different way once we cross the Camellon de los Mártires square, the antique bridge that allowed two sides of the society to come together and build a proper identity.
Revolts, independence, revolutions and uprisings are the basis of a resistant and fighting Colombian culture that you will be able to see and feel. Travel through time, step the historical path of freedom and be part of the essence of “La Fantástica”.
Cross from north to south until San Felipe Fortress viewpoint and understand the mighty power Cartageneros keep, the jewel of the old Spanish Crown.
