Overview

We are going to walk around interesting places in DownTown while getting beautiful & professional photographies of Cartagena's magical, colorful and ancient streets and corners. You will have the opportunity to be in an historical tour of the city while getting beautiful portraits and the most important, having fun! Once we finish the tour, within 6 hours I will be sharing with you all the photos taken through a link. You have two options to get the pics: 1) You can get ALL THE PICTURES TAKEN but no edition will be done. You'll have them all in raw quality. So you can let us know at the end. 2) You will have 10 photographies in full resolution completely edited shared through Drive in the 2 working days after the tour. (You decide the best ones) Find us in our IG wetripcolombia to know a little bit more about us! This experience could be carried out by Oscar, or any other of our collaborators who are also photographers :).

Meeting points

I will be the one with the camera. ;)

End point

Open in Google Maps

This is the last spot that we are going to visit. We'll finish the tour by taking an amazing profesional photography with the view of the walled city.

Itinerary

  • Plaza de La Trinidad

    We start our tour in this amazing place which is one of the best places in Getsemaní. It was the main point of meeting of the people in the colonial times.

    3 minutes

  • Barrio Getsemani

    We are going to walk the beautiful and colorful streets in Getsemaní which have amazing street art like graffittis, etc.

    40 minutes

  • Portal de Los Dulces

    In the Plaza de los Coches we can find the famous Portal de los Dulces with a variety of candies. This portal has a spectacular view of the Clock Tower, and it was not always called like that, because in colonial times it was known as the Portal of the Judge, then when they decided to sell the black slaves it received the name of the Portal of the Slaves.

    5 minutes

  • Plaza de la Aduana

    In this square we will find architectural constructions from colonial times, between them, the Marquez de Premio Real house, a typical colonial beauty from the 18th century. A great spot for beautiful shots.

    5 minutes

  • Torre del Reloj

    This place was the ancient entrance to the walled city. So we will learn about how this spot worked as the division of the city in economical terms.

    15 minutes

  • Catedral Santa Catalina de Alejandria

    The Cathedral of Cartagena is a majestic place with an incomparable attractive beauty. Its construction began in 1575, but in 1586, when only the tower remained to be built, the pirtata Francis Drake partially destroyed it. The resumption of construction took place between 1598 and 1612 with the additions of various things, such as the very high Florentine-style dome and the addition of marble on the main facade. You definitely want to have a photo taken in here.

    5 minutes

  • Casa del Marquez de Valdehoyos (Pass By)

    Before reaching the Wall through Calle de la Factoria, you can see an excellent example of an aristocrat's house, the Casa del Marquez de Valdehoyos, which mentions the well-living of the previous colonial nobility with splendid rooms, patios and gardens. This house was built during the 17th century by the Marquis of Valdehoyos who had the privilege of importing slaves and flour.

  • N/A

    Located in the heart of the historic center of Cartagena, this park is adorned with majestic trees and surprisingly tall. Water fountains bring great freshness to urbanists and visitors to rely on containers made of sprouts. In the midst of this vegetation is built the statue of the liberator Simon Bolivar, sitting on his horse, which was inaugurated on November 11, 1896. During the tour around the park, several interesting places are present to take great photographies.

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    The Jesuits created the construction of the monastery and church of San Pedro Claver in the 17th century, and it was originally called San Ignacio de Loyola. The facade of the church was made, like most of the buildings of the old city, in coral stones, which are famous in the region. If you visit Cartagena, you definitely have to have a photo taken in this place.

    15 minutes

  • Baluarte de San Ignacio

    This is an strategical corner to have a great view of the city. Definitely a great place for an amazing shot. The first wall built in this section was built on Jesuit land, the religious ended up drilling the wall and building their college and cloister on it, thus invalidating its defensive function. After a dispute that lasted thirty years, it was decided to move the wall to the outside by creating a street that would allow the walkway between the school and the future wall, with the Company in charge of paying the costs of the new construction.

Cartagena photo tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Charlie was great! He guided us through interesting areas of Cartagena, taught us about its history, and took fantastic photographs.

One of the best tours I’ve taken with beautiful photos to go with it!

Published on Aug, 2024

This tour was amazing, Charlie was very intentional about each site and through the stories / history told it’s evident he’s knowledgeable about each building and the significance it brings to Cartagena, Colombia. Charlie went above and beyond! Customer service is superb and the professionalism is outstanding! My photos? AMAZING! The editing is perfect as I am satisfied with the product and service. Charlie even made sure I got home safety ! wow ! That speaks volume to his character! Just had to throw that in here. This tour is safe and having a safe person conducting any activity is extremely important & I think a key component of safety. If you’re thinking about booking this tour DO IT! You won’t forget it at all! 1000/10

Great photography tour

Published on Jun, 2024

We have a lot of fun on the history photography tour with Charlie. We learned a bit about the history of Cartagena & Getsemani, saw some beautiful places and Charlie took a bunch of great photos. Thanks for everything Charlie

Amazing and professional pictures!

Published on Jan, 2024

Grateful for the chance to capture stunning moments with Oscar during my solo trip. Immersing myself in the city's beauty, I received incredible pictures in return. The quick turnaround meant I had the photos the very next day.
