FAQs

Question

Do I need a passport?

Answer

YES! Additionally, please check your passport expiration date, as your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond the date of travel. American citizens do not need a Visa to visit Colombia. For other citizenships, please check online.

Question

How should I get around Cartagen

Answer

Everything is walking distance within the Walled City! We encourage you to walk and explore. If you prefer the comfort of a car ride, then we suggest using Uber or taking a taxi (ask the rate before the ride starts)

Question

What currency is used in Cartagena?

Answer

The Colombian Peso is the currency used in Colombia. While most places in Cartagena accept credit cards, you will likely need pesos for taxis (if not using Uber) and to purchase items from street vendors and some local shops. You will also need cash if you're planning to take a day trip outside of the city. The worst exchange rate is at the airport so try to avoid doing it there.

Question

I have a food allergy or preference, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes! When you do the RSVP is a section where you can include this.
