Cartagena’s peak tourist season is during December, when crowds flood in during the holidays – especially around Christmas. Not to worry, though, as the city enjoys a warm climate year-round; the average daily temperature hovers around 82 degrees. The best time to visit is between March and October, when the crowds are at their lowest. Easter is a particularly nice time to visit as, despite there being some tourists around, the city calms down a bit and the religious events are quite impressive. The cheapest time to visit is probably during October and November, the wettest part of the year.
There are buses from the city to other parts of Colombia available, but travel around the city is easy and best done on foot – Cartagena is a city made for walking. There are many cheap local buses to reach certain forts and beaches. Private and collective taxis are also abundant. For a taste of Cartagena’s history, hire a chariot in the old town and feel what it was like to get around before the automobile took over.
