Traveler advice

Getting around

Using taxis agencies offers the safest way around the city

There are several taxis agencies that have apps you can install on your phone and use them. For the safety of our guests, we offer to call those agencies for them to be pickup at the mansion.
Customs and culture

The Locals are warm and will treat you very special

The people in Cartagena by nature are very friendly and warm and even more with the tourist. You asked them for a place and they will be willing to take you there personally. They will be willing to stop whatever they are doing to help you, and they will become your friends immediately. Many foreigners are not used to that kind of friendliness happening so quickly, but that is their culture. Don't get surprised if they hug you and kiss you in the cheek and treat you like family, and invite you to eat in their home, the second or third time you interact with them.
