Overview

If you are passionate about discovering the popular culture of the places you visit, this tour is for you. I invite you to immerse yourself in the largest and most vibrant public market in the region: Bazurto, located in the city of Cartagena de Indias.

Bazurto is a world full of intense flavors, unique smells, colors, art, music and traditional gastronomy. Here you will learn about the daily life of the locals, their customs, what moves them and how this market has become the popular heart of the city.

During the tour we will learn about the Cartagena identity, its social and cultural dynamics, and we will also dance champeta, the urban rhythm that represents the energy of the people.

Don't miss the opportunity to live Cartagena from the inside and become, for a few hours, another cartagenero or cartagenera. The tour begins and ends in the historic center of the city, connecting two worlds that together tell the true essence of Cartagena.
