3-DAY CARTAGENA, COLOMBIA Travel Vlog 🇨🇴 July 2022 | what to eat, see, and do! (with PRICES💲)

The first leg of my Colombia trip was in Cartagena! This was my first time in South America. We spent three and a half days walking around the old city and Getsamaní, exploring cafes and bars, sunset sailing, and learning about the rich African history in San Basilio de Palenque (the first free town in the Americas). We didn't have time to explore any beaches or islands (plus, I am still recovering from a finger injury so I didn't want to get my finger wet), but I absolutely loved everything we did there. WARNING: you will need to bring some extra memory cards, because I could NOT stop taking out my camera and phone for pictures every 10 seconds. The colonial architecture is stunning, especially paired with all the colorful flowers and street fruit carts around... all of it was just magical.

I also included all prices of what we did and ate in this video! Thought it might be helpful to know how to budget if you decide to come. The USD conversion is approximate (but pretty accurate), of course depending on the exchange rate of the day...

Stay tuned for my next vlog in: Medellín! The City of Eternal Springs ⛰️
