Free Walking Tour - Getsemaní
Guide services in English

Walk the most emblematic streets and its representative squares of a historically resistant town, its folklore, its colors, its music and its people.

Get closer to the “getsemanisence” culture through this journey where you will understand the importance of a segregated and insurgent community during the colony, whose fighting spirit initiated the Colombian independence, and over time spawned artistic movements in film, painting, sculpture, dance and, of course, the music.

Today you will find a tourist district with original inhabitants inheritors of a rich culture that at first sight hides stories and legends of revolution, pride, and tradition. Join this journey through time, culture and art discovering the other side of Cartagena de Indias – La Heroica!

Cartagena de Indias is a city that vibrates with history, culture, and art. Start your exploration in Centenario Park, a tribute to Cartagena’s hard-won independence. As dusk falls, head to the Trinidad Artistic Square and witness the cultural awakening that unfolds under the night sky. Delve into the city’s complex past by learning about the Afro Uprising and how its spirit of resistance continues to resonate today. Stroll through the streets and admire the vibrant Cultural Street Art, a powerful expression of local traditions and history. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of the Old Public Market, a beloved hub for locals, and then uncover the intriguing origins of Plaza “El Pozo.” Finally, ascend to the San Felipe Fortress viewpoint for breathtaking panoramas and captivating tales of battles and victories that shaped Cartagena’s destiny. And this is just the beginning of the many wonders waiting to be discovered!
