Editor, Cartagena Pointer

I'm 28. Half Colombian, half German. Travel, fitness and festivals are the things that get me out the door, and I write like that: warm, specific, and a bit too practical for my own good.

Lia is 28, half Colombian and half German. She loves travel, fitness and festivals, and she writes with German practicality and Colombian warmth. She checks Cartagena Pointer against official sources, recent traveller reviews and booking listings, and she says when a price or an hour could not be verified.

On this site I do not invent a trip I have not taken, a price I have not sourced, or an opening hour I have not checked. If a number is here, the guide names where it came from and the date it was last checked. October 2026 is the current pass.

The funny bits are allowed. The fees are not a joke. A morning run on the walls only works if you go before the heat, and a boat to the islands only works if you have counted the park fee, the pier fee and the insurance. That is the job.
