About Cartagena
Cartagena’s impressive city walls and fortresses, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, surround the beautifully restored historic centre known as the Ciudad Amurallada, or walled city. This vibrant area boasts charming plazas, churches, museums and shops, making it a popular coastal destination for South American and international visitors alike. New hotels and restaurants have added to its appeal, while the once-neglected Getsemaní neighbourhood now attracts those seeking a lively, bohemian atmosphere. The historic centre is compact, with many hotels located in Bocagrande, a nearby peninsula where high-rise hotels overlook a long, grey-sand beach. Founded in 1533 by Spanish conquistador Pedro de Heredia, Cartagena was the sole port on South America’s mainland. It became a hub for gold and silver shipments to Spain, drawing pirates like Sir Francis Drake, who famously set fire to 200 buildings in 1586. The city’s walls also protected the continent’s most important African slave market.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the ‘Worry-Free Shore Excursion’ on some of the excursions?
Viator’s Worry-Free Shore Excursion policy means that if your tour runs late and you miss your ship, they’ll arrange transport to the next port at no additional cost to you. This offer applies only to shore excursions specifically marked with the ‘Worry-Free’ badge on Viator. When you use FindMyExcursions, we help match you with these eligible tours where available, so you can book with confidence knowing you're covered if unexpected delays occur.

What are the risks of booking with third-party providers?
When you book excursions independently (i.e., outside of the cruise line), you’re responsible for managing your time ashore. If you miss the ship’s departure, the cruise will not wait, and you’ll have to make your own way to the next port.
That’s why FindMyExcursions only features tours that fit within your port timings, with enough buffer to get you back in good time. Many also offer port pick-up/drop-off for added convenience and peace of mind. You get all the flexibility of third-party booking, with smart, cruise-specific filtering built in.
Will I get a refund if the ship doesn’t dock or our itinerary changes?
If your ship is unable to dock or your itinerary changes at short notice, most tour providers on Viator offer a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours in advance. However, cancellations within 24 hours usually aren't refundable. We recommend checking each tour’s cancellation policy before booking, as they can vary. Also, having comprehensive cruise travel insurance is key. Some policies may cover missed ports or excursions, but this usually depends on the circumstances and how much notice the cruise line provided. We’re not qualified to offer legal or financial advice so always check the fine print of your policy or speak to your insurer for specifics.
