Hi there! Nice to meet you

Andrea

Experience in creating a company with social impact, in the area of ​​intangible heritage, traditional gastronomy and sustainable tourism.

I designed and created an artisanal and ancestral ice cream preparation experience, unique and authentic since 2018. I also founded and direct a foundation to support women with businesses in vulnerable conditions in Cartagena, we can eventually visit them and get to know the other side of the city, an experience of social impact.

I have traveled to more than 35 countries and I know 29 of the 32 departments of Colombia : )

"Among the most important fortifications of "La Heroíca", the walls of Cartagena are the most recognized. It was a project that lasted almost two centuries and ended in 1796 with the aim of defending the city from the continuous pirate attacks it suffered. The historic center is surrounded by 11 km of these imposing stone walls that are complemented by fortifications and bastions, from which you can see wonderful sunsets over the Colombian Caribbean"

Andrea gave us a great logistical overview of Cartagena. She knows all the in’s and out’s and was very communicative and helpful before and after our tour. She expanded our sense of the old city, gave us restaurant suggestions that turned out to be great and helped us find a driver for a trip to the National Aviary. Our group all felt she was an asset to our time in the city. Andrea is a wonderful resource!!

I had a fantastic time on the Evening in Cartagena City Tour with Andrea! She reached out ahead of time to understand what I was interested in, which made the experience feel really personalized. Throughout the tour, she shared a ton of great information and adjusted the itinerary along the way based on what caught my interest. Her knowledge of the city’s history and culture really added to the experience. If you’re looking for a guide who is informative and easy to explore with, Andrea is a great choice. Highly recommend!Great Tour with a Knowledgeable Guide!

Andrea is a great guide! I truly recommend touring the Old City with her. Andrea is always keen to provide not only the historical information, but also to provide context about the contemporary life in Cartagena. Great time in Cartagena!

We did a two hour walking tour with Andrea the day after we arrived in Cartagena. She took us around the old city (el centro historico) and pointed out good restaurants, historical places, shops, and gave us insights into what to expect. He english was great, and she customized the walk in real time based on our interests. She also gave us pointers on negotiating in the streetside markets to avoid paying too much "tourist tax". We highly recommend Andrea. Andrea is Fabulous
