Horseback Riding on the Beach

There is more than one way of exploring the beach: if you have had enough of sun tanning and frolicking in the surf, join a tour that puts you on a back of a horse. The ultimate romantic experience of riding along the sandy shore is available to riders of all levels. Feel like a character from a bodice ripper and get some spectacular photos for your Tinder profile while you're at it.

Do & See

There is a great deal of things to do in Cartagena, even if simply taking a stroll through the city's beautifully preserved Old Town with a distinct colonial flare. Some of the highlights include an obligatory visit to the imposing Castillo San Felipe de Barajas, a walk along Cartagena's defensive ramparts, a trip to the chilling Inquisition Palace (which still contains the original torture devices used to extract "confessions"), and a deep dive into the incredibly hip neighbourhood of Getsemani, teeming with eateries and bars where locals mix and mingle with guests from far and wide.
