    Martin te hace un recorrido por los principales sitios historicos y culturales de Cartagena que tiene una riquisima historia . Este viaje viaje por el pasado y presente de Cartagena te permite en medio día tener un panorama excelente de esta hermosa ciudad.

    Excellent tour of Cartagena off the Holland America Zuiderdam. Only had 4 hours. Martin gave us an excellent tour of the city. We were a group of 3 in his limo which worked perfect because of the tremendous traffic congestion in the city. He gave us a running history of his city, knew all the little tidbits, how to avoid traffic jams and keep us on schedule. This was the best tour of our cruise. Thank You Martin and Cartagena Tour Guides. You all are awesome.

    “La semana pasada estuve en cartagena y tomamos el city tour. Realmente martin es un gran conocedor de la ciudad, da explicaciones amplias que nos permitieron aprender y conocer más sobre Cartagena. Hicimos el tour en 4 horas , un poco más, sin ir en carreras que es siempre una preocupación con los tour.
    Definitivamente, este tour lo recomendaría con total seguridad. Solamente le haría una observación: seria bueno que lo lleven a las bóvedas y no sólo pasar frente a ellas. Siempre es interesante ir a los mercados de artesanía”

    “Martin is awesome, you won’t find a better tour guide in Cartagena. I found him through another family blogger who travels with their kids just like we do, and then referred my friend to him who used him two weeks before we did. She loved him as well!

    There are many tours in Cartagena, that will drive you through the city on crowded, hot open air buses with about 50 other people. Not my idea of fun! Martin is private, and will pick you up in his private, air conditioned van. We had our 5 year old with us, and would say the tour is super kid friendly. After visiting a few of the sites, we changed things up a bit and headed to the walled city, which is what we really wanted to explore in the first place. Martin is very accommodating and even dropped us off at an awesome restaurant at the end of our tour for dinner. I highly recommend using him, you won’t be disappointed!”

    “We had the good fortune to arrange a private tour with Martin during a recent cruise ship visit to beautiful Cartagena. Everything about the tour was excellent from timely pick up and drop off, excellent driving skills in a perfectly clean late model a/c vehicle, detailed knowledge of the area, and little extras like timing our tour such that we ended up at a cafe on the city wall at sunset for a relaxing drink soaking up the charming Cartagena atmosphere.

    Following the tour, Martin arranged for a driver to takes us to a wonderful restaurant, who waited for us while we had dinner. He then had a horse drawn carriage waiting for us for a romantic ride.

    All in all a spectacular day with fond memories of this beautiful city. Thank you Martin for taking such good care of us!”
