Overview

Cartagena will never be the same after you take this Free Tour. Be part of an exceptional and magical experience thanks to the stories that give life to the streets, follow the steps that our Nobel Prize winner "Gabo" took between squares and bastions, between houses and balconies. If you have not yet read any of Gabo's novels, or if you are a regular reader of his literary works, this tour will enliven your senses and alter your reality.

From the Plaza de Santo Domingo to Gabriel García Márquez's house in San Diego Cartagena, experience the art, music and literature of the bohemian neighborhood where our writer lived absurd, magical and imaginary realities that influenced his life and later the lives of his characters that give meaning to the magical realism that we love and fall in love with.

learn more about the life of this great artist, explore a different area of the historic center of Cartagena and get inspired by the fantastic stories that only Gabo knew how to write as if it were a chronicle of a death foretold!
