CARTAGENA, COLOMBIA 🇨🇴| What to do, What to see, Where to Eat & TOURIST TRAPS
What are the best things to do in Cartagena?
What to see in Cartagena?
Where to eat in Cartagena?
What is the best food in Cartagena?
Is Cartagena expensive? Is Cartagena cheap? Is Cartagena safe?
Are there any tourist traps in Cartagena to watch out for?
Is the ceviche as good as people say it is?
These are all great questions! Here's a to-the-point video on what we consider the best things to do in Cartagena. It's a breakdown of all the best places and things to do if you only have a handful of days there, and some tourist traps to watch out for!
It's easy to get overwhelmed with the abundance of options available so we put together what we did and loved (Nathan always does quite a bit of research before going).
🇨🇴 And if you’re planning a trip to Colombia soon, let us know which city in Colombia you’re heading to first in the comments below! 🇨🇴

    Palenque is a construction equivalent to the wooden forts in the wild west, they were built by escaped slaves and were the first republics on the american continent. They are found in other countries too.. The Palenque close to Cartagena is San Basilio de Palenque, in the 70s there was a moment when they had 3 world boxing champions in diffrent weights coming from that small town :)

    I love Latin America! Calling street vendors "tourist traps" is a bit harsh -- They are just trying to make a living. When I first started traveling to Mexico and South America, it was definitely something to get used to, but I have nothing but respect for the men and women who walk the streets all day and night to make HONEST money. The vendors deserve respect and compassion, not judgement. Aside from that, LOL, I love your vlogging style and photography. Thanks for sharing! New subscriber here. I'm heading to Colombia in a couple weeks and arrive in Cartegena. I'm taking a few days to enjoy the city and I'm taking notes while watching this video.

    Not always honest at all. I found them awful and real hustlers. Many have no respect for tourists ex the money we can send their way. They follow you, don't leave you alone. Never sit at an outdoor table- your meal will be ruined.

    The street vendors are savages.. they won’t take No for an answer and become extremely aggressive. I understand everyone needs to make money and they live a hard life I would probably never understand, but not being able to walk five feet without being hit up to buy something or if you do decide to buy something they try to screw you over and charge you 3x the price and play games and try to scam you just ruins the whole experience of what could have been an amazing vacation in a beautiful place. Without regulating these street vendors Colombia will never be on top of the tourism industry

    Did you visit the beaches in Bocagrande? I spent a bit of time there. It's a gorgeous area! Just so women know, expect a few men to flirt with female solo travelers either to get an easy ride into a developed country or to leech money from you. I was lucky to have had great friends in Manizales who treated me as they would have treated any local woman, but in Bogota and Cartagena, I met both types. Needless to say that I stayed away from the leeches and spent time with the gentlemen.

    Avoid the horse carriage tour …. Those horses are in bad shape and they suffered a lot of accidents that harms them. Many people from Cartagena are asking to stop this form of animal cruelty but it seems that money comes first. Sometimes you can se one horse pulling a carriage with 6 people…this is not fair for the horse.

    You don’t “have to” give money to the ladies. You can tip them, (a small amount), if you want. I just gave a woman 2 000 colombian pesos (0.51 United States Dollar) and she “made” me take two photos of her and one with her. She even showed me a cardboard sign that said tips were optional. (March 4, 2024).

    Just got back from Colombia. In Cartagena you will be harassed constantly by street rappers and club promoters from the afternoon to late into the night. Also to keep in mind that there are a lot of sex workers in the streets. Those women will not harass you nor talk to you, they will just stand there until a client goes up and talks to them. Other than that Cartagena was a great place to visit.
