Cruise from Cartagena to Barranquilla with a 3-Night Post-Cruise Stay in Panama City

Embark on an unforgettable journey into the heart of Colombia, where history flows as richly as the waters of the Magdalena River. From the vibrant rhythms of Palenque—the first free city in the Americas—to the colorful street murals of Getsemaní in Cartagena, every stop pulses with culture, music, and soul.

Let the melodies of cumbia and vallenato guide you through timeless towns and lush riverbanks, where every encounter invites you deeper into a fusion of Spanish and pre-colonial heritage. As you cruise onward to Barranquilla and then to Panama City for your 3-night post-cruise stay, you'll experience not just the scenery, but the spirit of a region alive with passion, resilience, and joy.

Are you ready to feel the heartbeat of Colombia—and connect with the unforgettable people who call it home?
