DAY ONE
8AM Wake up and luxuriate in your surrounds at Casa San Agustin, a gorgeous 31-room hotel spread across three whitewashed houses in the heart of the old city. Freshen up in the pool that runs beneath an aqueduct before grabbing a light breakfast of pastries across the street at LA ESQUINA DEL PANDEBONO.
Hire a guide and driver to take you to CONVENTO DE LA POPA, a 400-year-old Augustinian convent atop the highest hill in Cartagena. It's no Everest but affords panoramic sea and city views. A revered statue of the Virgen de la Candelaria, the city's patroness, is housed here.
