Mely Local Vybz Tour
About
What's unique about this Historical Tour is, we don't just show you photo of locations- Our goal is immersion into the culture, we have built relationships with our providers and constantly consult with them about making sure our guests see Cartagena through the lenses of a close relative that has returned home. Finally unlike many others that advertise here we are registered with Colombia Bureau of Tourism and also Cartagena Chamber of Commerce..

What to expect
- 1Torre del RelojYou get to wall to experience the ambience of this square.The clock tower probably one of the most famous landmarks in Colombia.The sqaure has been in exiistence since 1601.It was an important place for the commercial slave trade and also later used as a place for countries wanting to purchase vessels for their armadas. 30 min Admission included
- 2Barrio GetsemaniGetsemani is a vibrant barrio filled with many quaint art galleries...you walk along cobblestone streets only making way for horse drawn carriages that scurry visitors to unknown destinations. We will sit at Plaza Trinitario and enjoy a cool beverage while watching local dancers perform folk dances 1 hr
- 3Castillo de San Felipe de BarajasThis great fort was built in 1536 by African slave labor supervised by the Spaniards. It was placed in a strategic location to give a clear panoramic view of the city in case enemies were approaching. The group has the option to do a drive by or climb the fort. 1 hr Admission included
- 4Mercado de BazurtoThis mercado leaves an impression of many that enter. This market is like walking into a time capsule. Many of the makeshift stalls show the marks of decades of use. As a foodie and a travel addict when I see the underside of a pot looking really black. I know that chances are great food has been created out of that pot. In the culinary world it is call a "Well seasoned pot"..In this market youy will experience many local and regional dishes .cooked by generations of different family members.Most of stalls are family businesses. 1 hr
