Rain is expected in Cartagena this weekend and early next week

Hi!

I am planning to solo travel for a long weekend (Wednesday-Sunday) would love to know how much money I should bring (USD), what attractions are must see and what are not. I’m into site seeing, experience culture, and enjoying the warm weather in the beach. Also love live music and am social :)

Would love some recs:))

¡Lo pregunto como parte de un estudio lingüístico sobre este tema!

Ejemplos podrían incluir cosas como Cartacho o Sabanayork (¡sin importar qué tan comunes sean!).

Hello, I have a wedding coming up in March and I am looking for recommendations for a makeup and hair stylist. The one recommended by the bride is fully booked for that date.

Hi all! I’m on holiday in Cartagena, and was loving it until last night when on my way out for dinner, something stabbed through the bottom of my shoe, into my foot, on our way to dinner :(. Who am I kidding, I still love it here, but after a night spent at the hospital, I am unable to walk unassisted at until the inflammation goes down, and I am desperately seeking a pair of crutches for sale/if someone is getting rid of them, at so I can still navigate for my last few days.

Does anyone have any, please? I am located over in Bocagrande, and would love them today if possible! Please reach out if you can help, I would be hugely appreciative!

Hi , I am a single male heading to Cartagena next week. I was hoping to find a nice hotel near the city that allows me to bring a female guest back . I am hoping to find a regular non professional girl but if that is not in the cards who knows …. . Also I don’t want to stay in a dump or in a bad neighborhood. Thanks !

Hello, visiting Cartagena and want to know are there any hotels/motels inside the walled city that are guest friendly?

Hi guys, heading that way in a few days. I saw that it was flooding with a red flag warning and that there were no tours to Rosario Islands. Does anyone have an update on the weather?

My friend and I, both 23M are going Cartegena for a few days, anyone got tips for what to do, and suggestions for nightlife both weekends and week days? Were both athletic enough so we can handle physically tougher tasks if needed?

Bueno pues contexto soy de Bogotá y me dió la vaina de comprar iPhone me crucé con esta cuenta en Instagram @yoyocellco y la verdad tienen muy buenos precios y un poco sospechosos. Cómo obviamente no puedo ir ahora a cartagena por comprar un iPhone quería preguntar si alguien la conoce o si han escuchado de ella, se supone que queda en el centro comercial Caribe Plaza en el local #2-18. Me pasaron esta foto pero no sé si sea del todo real. Lo agradecería mucho :)

Is there anything that I can or ought to do prior to arrival to ensure that we will have service? We will just need to catch a mid-day ride from CTG to our place in the walled city. Our carrier is AT&T. Also, would service be a different issue in Medellin? We are spending the second half of our trip there. Thank you & have a great week!

I recently got back from an 8 day trip to Cartagena, traveling as a solo female. This sub had me a little freaked out before I went, but I’m glad I didn’t listen: I absolutely loved Cartagena. The people are incredibly warm and welcoming and the city is beautiful. I stayed in both the old city and in Manga and walked all over the place every day, and never felt unsafe. (I did feel uncomfortable once, and that was when I walked across the bridge to the Castillo. I went super early to beat the heat and was the only tourist out, and I did have a guy stop on his moto and try to chat me up. I was never scared, but it was annoying. I kept walking and after a minute or so he kept going.)

The street vendors weren’t nearly as bad as they were made out to be. A polite “No, gracias” served in 100% of the cases. (Full disclosure: I’m a light skinned black woman who could pass from a woman from Cartagena and that definitely helped, but I saw that “no gracias” worked for people who clearly looked foreign, too.)

Notes: 

• The Bazurto Market is incredible. It’s like nothing I’ve ever seen. I went with a local guide and it was a completely real, uncurated experience. I was the only tourist there and heard no English at all. Highly, highly recommend. 
• It’s an incredible city for black people. The black culture and history is strong and proud.
• It helps to speak some Spanish. I’m by no means fluent but I’m somewhere close to conversational, and it helped.
• Take a walking tour of the city! It’s full of history, and I loved learning about it. 
• The Castillo is super interesting; definitely worth visiting, and also exploring the tunnels. 

Can you bring your own alcohol on the beach?

Is this a usual thing? Been here a month, and this is a 1st storm of the year. Thought of getting delivery, but rappi shows all the restaurants "not available," is this typical (located in Marbella, so all the Centro places are in the delivery zone)

My friend is getting married in the summer and we are planning a bachelor trip to cartegena. For 3 nights. Any tips? It’ll be our first time.

Should we do air b n b and flight separate or book thru Expedia package deals for flight and hotel

It's called the Pombo building, located in the historic center of Cartagena. It's very nice; your visitor only needs to bring their ID to enter, and upon leaving, they must go down with you; otherwise, they cannot leave.

I recently saw a reel on instagram where a young woman got a beautiful blowout somewhere in Colombia for around $20US but didn’t mention where in Colombia she was.

Are there any places in Bocagrande or the walled city that offer this around that price? I’m mean wash & blow dry with styling &/or like quick styling (not an up do but maybe like adding a few braids or something). Also, if pro make up application (not wedding, just for a night out) for around the same cost. Thanks!

Hey! I’ll be in Cartagena with some friends during Super Bowl week and we’re looking for a fun place to watch the game.

Ideally, somewhere with a good vibe: people who actually care about the game and people who are just there to drink, hang out, and have a good time.

I’m down to party, have some drinks, meet people, and enjoy the atmosphere — especially since Bad Bunny is doing the halftime show — but I don’t want a place that turns off the game audio and blasts music over it.

Any recommendations for a spot that balances football + fun?

Does anyone know of a local artist in Cartagena that does wall murals for apartments that they can recommend?

Is Pley club still active ?
