Strenuous activity

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

There's much to see in Cartagena, and energetic travellers will enjoy covering all the highlights on this strenuous half-day adventure. Begin at Concepcion Castle and The Center for Interpretation of the History of Cartagena
for panoramic views and interesting cultural exhibits that detail the city's ancient past. A stop at the ruins of the Punic Wall introduces an early chapter in Cartagena's long tale of human habitation, and a walk along the Maritime Wall brings the city's strategic maritime location into focus. Walk the City Center from the Town Hall to the Spanish Square, then explore the fascinating Roman Theater and archaeological items displayed in the adjacent museum. Complete your tour with a scenic drive back to the historic port, returning with a new perspective on the vast historical treasures and amazing natural beauty that Cartagena possesses in abundance.
