Imagine embarking on a cruise with the women you love — sisters, friends, community mates — and stepping into a city where sea breezes carry the scent of tropical flowers, brightly-painted walls tell centuries of stories, and palm-lined promenades invite you to linger. A group cruise to Cartagena isn’t just another destination — it’s a shared moment of discovery, laughter, connection. Each stroll along cobbled lanes, each sunset over the harbour, each “we soaked this in together” snapshot becomes a thread in your collective story.
Why Cartagena Calls You
Cartagena de Indias is a place where vibrant culture meets Caribbean sea, colonial architecture meets modern energy — the perfect backdrop for your group’s journey.
- The cruise terminal is located just a few kilometres from the heart of the historic walled city, making access easy for your group. (What’s In Port)
- The Old City of Cartagena is a UNESCO World Heritage site, rich in fortress walls, pastel houses, balconies, cafés and plazas — a place to wander, pause and connect. (NCL)
- From vibrant street musicians to local artisan markets; from colourful colonial lanes to calm seaside views — your group will find both discovery and solace.
A Voyage Better Together
- Shared awe: Picture your group coming through the city gates together, stepping into the plaza as the sun warms the stones, and you all take a deep breath at the beauty—our moment.
- Connections deepened: Whether you’re best friends, a travel-club tribe, or sisters by choice, this stop gives you space to walk, talk, laugh and come home closer.
- Stories you’ll keep telling: Instead of “I visited Cartagena,” you’ll say “We sailed into Cartagena together — we wandered the old city, we smiled at balconies, we came home changed.”
What You’ll Experience
- Dock at the terminal and let your group choose from curated experiences:
- Walk into the historic centre and admire the old walled city, plazas, cafes, and history around every corner.
- Browse artisan shops for emeralds, leather goods, handcrafted items in a vibrant market scene. (Flavors of Bogota)
- Alternatively, pause at the port’s ambient gardens and aviary just steps from the ship—an easy first stop for your group. (Rosebee and Reya Adventures)
- On board, your cruise ship becomes your home base for connection: cabins near each other, group-dining where laughter flows, deck time for shared coffee at sunrise or cocktails at dusk.
- Moments crafted for togetherness: morning deck strolls before the city wakes, sunset over the sea with your crew, shared quiet at a café as the city lights blink into life.
This Voyage Is Perfect For
- Women travelling with friends, sisters, travel-club members or community groups who believe the best adventures are shared.
- Groups wanting more than “just a port stop”—they want culture, laughter, friendship, and lasting memories.
- Anyone ready to lean into a destination where the walls tell stories and your group writes one together.

- Because we specialise in group cruising—we know how to make cabins aligned, meals shared, excursions picked for togetherness so you focus on the people, not the logistics.
- Because group travel unlocks more: more laughter, deeper bonds, memories woven together, fewer solo wanderings.
- Because when you return home, your story won’t simply be “I visited Cartagena.” It will be “We discovered Cartagena together—and we came back richer in connection, smiles, and shared wonder.”
