Bike tours in Cartagena

Bicycling is often one of the best ways to explore a city or area. You are able to cover a lot more distance than walking but unlike being in a car which whisks you from place to place, you are moving slow enough to really appreciate your surroundings. It can also feel a lot cooler than walking through a city, especially if you visit during the dry season when the weather is hot and sunny.

Cartagena is a flat city and is great place to discover by bike. Although the traffic can be pretty crazy outside of the city walls, an early morning ride through the old town is an amazing way to start the day. You can rent bikes from many different shops in the old town. Don’t stress too much about trying to find the best price. Most bikes cost roughly the same. However, just make sure to double check the breaks and steering before you get started.

We highly recommend riding along the city walls to get a great view of the old walled city, Bocagrande and the sea itself. Like the streets of the old city, this is best attempted very early in the morning when other visitors are still sleeping off the previous day’s nocturnal activities.

Regardless of where you decide to ride, try and go as early in the day as possible or in the evening (if you are there during the off season) to escape the heat of the day. Carry plenty of water and wear sunscreen if you are riding more than 20 minutes or so especially if you are coming from a cold climate. The best way that you can ruin a vacation is by sunstroke or sunburn (believe us, we know after finding out the hard way.)

Cartagena’s old walled city is a relatively straightforward city to explore but if you want to hear the history and insider tips on the city, we recommend taking a bike tour. Cartagena has an absolutely fascinating history and you won’t want to miss it!
