Cartagena, Colombia

Spanish inquisition site intersting. OLd city beautiful but so many tourists it was hard to follow out guide, If he had had a yellow or rd flag sticking up in air it would have been so much better. Heat of 95degress and humidity 75% was difficult for me to do so much walking.

Pros: Staff, food, cleanliness

Cons: excursions . Too far to major cities. Guides need flags. Difficulty in following guides.
