Come and Visit this Jewel of the Caribbean: Cartagena, Colombia!
Submitted by Editor on Sat, 01/20/2007 - 15:59.For several hundred years this Spanish Colonial city in the sun was Spain’s treasure chest on the Spanish Main. Today it is the perfect destination for vacationers arriving by air, for cruise ship guests and yacht cruisers alike. Sir Francis Drake once walked its streets and plazas; but here he was a pirate, not a knight.
Whether you travel by air or sea, Cartagena is a shopper’s paradise as well as a World Heritage Site. Emeralds, coffee, cigars, pre-Columbian art, and world-class leather goods entice you. This warm vacation destination offers accommodations and dining for all visitors, from backpackers to the elite. The nightlife is endless fun. And don’t forget the romance of that stone.
Private Tours in Cartagena by Lee Miles
I provide help with private tours of Cartagena at the request of visitors who are planning to arrive aboard cruise ships or who are staying in local hotels and want more flexibility and personal attention. I have been involved in tour planning and operations for many years, but arranging private tours for couples and small groups is something new.

I would like to say quite the opposite now that I have experienced it firsthand and can recommend it as a yachting destination or even a family vacation."
