A luxury coach transports you to the heart of Cartagena's Old Town, where cobblestone streets are lined with coral stone walls dating back to the days of pirates, buccaneers, and Spanish galleons laden with New World treasures.
Explore a replica of the dungeons where emeralds were once extracted, offering a glimpse into the laborious process of mining these precious gems. You will participate in a workshop led by an emerald expert offering a captivating talk on the wonders of emeralds. Skilled artisans transform emeralds into sparkling treasures, and now it's your turn to try your hand at the ancient art of gem carving. Shape a piece of raw emerald into a unique keepsake — a tangible reminder of Cartagena's legendary heritage.
Enjoy a non-alcoholic drink while browsing in the boutique, where a certificate of authenticity accompanies each gem.
Enjoy some free time to explore the Old Town on your own. Wander through its narrow streets, indulge in local cuisine, or browse for Colombian souvenirs.
Your return to the cruise port marks the end of this unforgettable expedition.
