What to see in Cartagena
Start with Cartagena's fortified old town, then decide whether your next priority is a hilltop fort, a museum or a coastal excursion. Those choices need different amounts of time.

Keep exploring Cartagena with our travel partners.
Puerta del Reloj and the old-town plazas make an easy first walk; Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas adds the military view beyond the walls. Around Plaza de Bolívar, the Palace of the Inquisition offers a museum stop, while the cathedral and San Pedro Claver church show the religious side of the colonial center. Beaches and reef waters are separate outings.
Useful to know
Use the Clock Gate as a starting point for Centro's plazas and churches.
Pair the fort with the historic center only if you leave enough time for the separate visit.
Set aside a dedicated boat outing for the Rosario islands rather than adding them to an old-town walk.
