Excellent tour with a very knowledgeable guide! - Our private tour was led by Carlos, who is an excellent guide and is extremely knowledgeable with the locations and history of Cartagena (including Getsemani). Carlos took us to all the relevant and historical sites, gave us a good understanding of the location and the people, and was very flexible by indulging us with our questions and requests to see specific areas. I would very much recommend his services!

Our guide was a wealth of information on this rich culture. - We covered quite a bit of distance, saw a lot of places and squares (which are very nice here) to see current and historical architecture. This city haa a very rich culture and our guide was extremely knowledgeable especially about how tribes and groups formed over time.

Walking tour old town - We had an amazing tour of Cartagena’s Historic Center and Getsemaní with Fabian, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our trip. Fabian is not just a guide — he’s a storyteller. He knows the history deeply, explains it in a clear and engaging way, and connects the past with the present without making it feel like a boring history lesson. Walking through the old city and Getsemaní with him felt alive, authentic, and meaningful. He was friendly, patient, and very attentive, always happy to answer questions and adapt the tour to our pace and interests. Getsemaní, in particular, came to life through his stories about local culture, street art, and everyday life. If you want to truly understand Cartagena beyond the postcards, Fabian is the right person. Highly recommended.

Great for learning - Fabian was communicative and a safe driver. He was very knowledgeable and patient with me & my friends. We felt safe with him and he was able to help keep people from trying to constantly sell us things. I would definitely recommend. We even went back to some of the places he recommended in Getsemaní and had a good time. Wear comfy shoes!
