What Haqqi Tours arranges in Cartagena
In Cartagena the site currently lists 2 day tours, 12 private airport transfers, 11 flight tickets and 2 ferry tickets. Day tours include Cartagena Bay Sunset Cruise and Rosario Islands 5-Stop Boat Tour with Lunch and Beach Clubs Cartagena. Airport transfers run from Cartagena Airport to hotels and districts across the city.
Guests usually start with the airport transfer and add a tour or two once they have seen the city; both are booked in the same WhatsApp conversation, and the second booking takes a minute.
Getting to Cartagena: the airports
Rafael Núñez International Airport (CTG) sits in the Crespo district on the northern edge of Cartagena, about 5 km from the Walled City and 9 km from Bocagrande; the cruise port is about fifteen minutes away and Playa Blanca about an hour and a half.
Cartagena has no train; buses and shared minivans serve the airport, but the terminal is so close to the Walled City that a private car is quick and simple, and it is the practical choice for Bocagrande, the cruise port, the Rosario pier or the long drives to Playa Blanca and Santa Marta.
Where to stay in Cartagena
The areas travellers ask us about most: Getsemaní, Bocagrande, Castillogrande, Manga, La Boquilla and the northern beaches and El Laguito.
A hotel in the centre puts the sights within walking distance; one further out is quieter and usually better for families with a car at the door, which is what the transfer provides.
What to see in Cartagena
The places most visitors come for: Castillo San Felipe de Barajas, Plaza de Santo Domingo, Plaza de Bolívar, Getsemaní street art, Convento de la Popa, A boat trip to the Rosario Islands and Playa Blanca on Barú.
Our day tours cover most of them with a guide and a vehicle; the pages of Cartagena Bay Sunset Cruise and Rosario Islands 5-Stop Boat Tour with Lunch and Beach Clubs Cartagena say exactly what each includes.
What to eat in Cartagena
Worth trying: cocadas, ceviche, arepa de huevo, cazuela de mariscos and patacones. Ask the driver or guide where they eat themselves; halal options and family restaurants are easy to find, and the desk suggests places near your hotel if you land late.
When to go
December to April is driest and busiest, September to November is the rainiest, and it is hot and humid all year; the New Year and Easter weeks are crowded, and traffic in Bocagrande is heavy at weekend evenings.
Good to know before you arrive
Cartagena Airport is small and very close to the old town, so arrivals are quick; tell us your flight number, hotel address or ship name, and remember that the Walled City has narrow streets where the driver may drop you at the nearest gate.
Every booking is confirmed by a real person on our WhatsApp desk, in Arabic or English, with the price written down before anything is paid.
