Discover Cartagena with a wheeled trolley train ride that is exclusive to Holland America Line guests and view the highlights of Cartagena at a leisurely pace. The city of Cartagena, originally settled in 227 BC, flourished under Roman, Muslim, and Arab rule and offers a vast cultural legacy acquired over more than 3,000 years.
Leaving the port area, you enter the historic city center. Watch for the Naval Museum and the 18th-century Arsenal Building. Stop for photos at Parque Torres and take in stunning views of Cartagena Bay.
Admire Conception Castle and view the outside of one of the most surprising archaeological finds of the city — the Roman Amphitheatre of Cartagena. Discovered in 1988, this great structure shows how important Cartagena was in Roman Spain, and its complete excavation and restoration have been a driving force for the regeneration of a formerly run-down area.
Notes:
Tour consists mainly of sightseeing from the transportation. Stops are brief, and participants can remain in the vehicle. Tour sequence may vary. Traffic can be unpredictable; your patience is greatly appreciated if a delay extends the tour duration.
