Good for Cruisers
We were in Cartagena especially to catch up with relatives on a cruise ship coming in for a day, so booked this tour to revisit the Roman history of the port with them.

Enjoyed the main archeological sites and Bruno our guide really tried hard to cater to everyone in the group.

Some good knowledge imparted of the history of Cartagena and a quick tapas & drink stop was appreciated. All in all because everything is so close to the port it's a good tour for any visitors and good for 'cruisers'

Great Day in Cartagena
Had a great walking tour of Cartegena with knowledgeable Christina through Viator. We took the elevator up to the top to over look the city, colosseum and Roman Theater, walked down through the theater to see the lovely art nouveau architecture of the old town, than back into the theater itself after some tapas and bino with the fine citizens of Cartagena and their dog friends. Easy access from the cruise ship port and we got a very good feel for the history and present day reality of the Murcia region and city. Christina was terrific.

A very nice experience in Cartagena
Nov 2019
We had a great expereince with this tour and it is a good alternative to the more expensive cruise excursions. Our guide was very knowledgable and we visted multiple sites with extensive walking, although not that difficult. A wine and tapas tasting was also included. There was a large Roman excavation that we visited which was one of the largest in Spain, and you could walk thru most it.

Very well organized walk through history with a knowledgable guide
Mar 2019
Bruno did an excellent job of guiding us through the Roman ruins. We had just spent 5 days in Rome, and found these to be better preserved. There is also a lot to see in a small area, so exploring is very efficient.
