PRIVATE TOUR

Price: $50USD pp minimum 2 people. Prices negotiable for groups.  Duration: 3 hours.

For those who want complete flexibility and don't want to share! The private tour can be whatever you want it to be, but is most often a chance to walk Cartagena's Centro, San Diego and Getsemani neighbourhoods - helping to orientate your stay, as we explain history, try local food, point out our favourite restaurants and bars and shops, check out some streetart, and teach you some local slang. 3 hours with minimal stoppage and you can cover pretty much everything. If we are stopping more for eating, or travelling outside the city we can be at your disposal for up to 4 hours.

Ideas on what we can do?  This might be as a walking tour of the city (where you don't have to share us with anyone else) and we can see the sites that you are interested in, or just go shopping (from fashion to artisans etc), or eating. (Please, let's go eating!) We can go to the main sites outside the wall* (san felipe, la popa etc). We can focus on streetart. Literature. We can do a combo on the streetfood/history tour. I've had groups hire me as a chaperone/translator/social coordinator/dance instructor as we've hit the bars and dance-clubs, I've helped out on bachelor weekends, others have had me co-ordinate and come along on tours of the islands. I've done corporate events. We can come to La Boquilla with you and we can tour the mangroves, visit the fishing village, or a secluded private beach you can only reach by pushed-along canoe.. we can help you tour the fortress of San Bernardo and Bocachica. You might want us to re-create Anthony Bourdain's Cartagena visit with you. All possible. The price doesn't include entry fees and food.. just our time and infinite local knowledge. We can arrange a car or van or bicycle  (you'll need to pay the hire costs separately) and we can tour around the sites of the city while we spout forth fascinating information (in my case, delivered with an Australian accent). 


Other suggested Themed Private Tours:
Gastronomic Tour - Try all the local specialties - tropical fruit, arepas and snacks, coconut lemonade, Colombian Rum, traditional plates, best ceviches, sweet-tooth - we can tailor this to budgets, time, tastes
