City tour of Santa Marta: history, culture and Caribbean charm

Discover Santa Marta, the oldest city in South America, a destination full of Caribbean history, culture and charm. This shared tour will allow you to get to know its main historical and architectural attractions, while enjoying the contrast between its colonial legacy and its natural environment. The tour starts with departure from the hotel to visit the Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino, former hacienda where Simon Bolivar spent his last days. Then, you will visit the Cathedral Basilica Minor, the oldest in Colombia, and the Tayrona Gold Museum or Customs House, where the Liberator lived and died, today converted into a space that preserves valuable archaeological and artistic pieces. The tour continues through the city with a photo stop at the monument to the “Pibe” Valderrama, icon of Colombian football, and a panoramic view from the viewpoint of Taganga, with its spectacular coastal landscape. At the end, I return to the hotel.
