Day 1: Settle in & breathe Cartagena

I’ll arrange your private airport transfer — no stress. Once you arrive, take time to relax.
Grab a welcome drink by the pool or in your suite.
For your first dinner, I recommend Carmen Cartagena. Elegant, creative and always a guest favorite.
Day 2: Discover the heart of the city

Start your day with a private walking tour through the Walled City — you’ll fall in love with the history and hidden gems.
Have lunch at Candé, where local flavors come with live music.
Later, sip a cocktail on a rooftop. I personally love Alquímico or the Movich rooftop for the views.
For dinner, treat yourself to Celele — a culinary must-try.
Day 3: Island day

I’ll organize a private boat for you to explore the Rosario Islands.
Picture turquoise water, good music, fresh ceviche… I recommend Blue Apple Beach for the perfect vibe.
You’ll be back by sunset — relaxed and glowing.
Keep dinner light, or enjoy a quiet spa night at your hotel.
Day 4: Local culture & indulgence

Start with a spa morning — I’ll reserve it for you.
Then wander through Getsemaní — colorful walls, local art and a bohemian feel I absolutely love.
Lunch at Lunático is always a hit — delicious and with a great view.
In the afternoon, you can do a private rum tasting — a fun and very Caribbean experience.
End the day with dinner at Marea by Rausch, watching the boats in the bay.
Day 5: A sweet goodbye

Enjoy breakfast in your room or I can set up a private rooftop or picnic-style farewell — always a guest favorite!
Last stroll, a few photos, and off to the airport with private transfer.
