What to expect

Cartagena will transform before your eyes when you embark on this complimentary tour. Immerse yourself in an extraordinary, magical journey brought to life by tales that animate the colonial streets. Trace the path of our Nobel Prize for Literature laureate, "Gabo", through squares and bastions, past houses and balconies. Whether you're new to Gabo's novels or a seasoned reader of his literary works, this tour is sure to stimulate your senses and shift your perception.

From the Plaza de Santo Domingo to Gabriel García Márquez's residence in San Diego Cartagena, experience the art, music and literature of the bohemian district where our author lived out bizarre, magical and imaginary realities. These experiences not only shaped his life but also influenced the lives of his characters, infusing them with the magical realism we find so mesmerizing.

Discover more about this remarkable artist, explore a distinct part of Cartagena's historic centre and let yourself be inspired by the fantastical stories that only Gabo could craft as if foretelling a death in a chronicle.
