History of Santa Marta Walking Tour

Walking around the streets of the port city it’s easy to transport your mind back to colonial days. Santa Marta was the first Spanish settlement in the country and its story is incredibly important. 

Your expert guide will take you around the architectural wonders of the streets while narrating the history of the city. Appreciate the imposing, whitewashed Santa Marta Cathedral, the first church of South America. The continent’s colonial history really began here.

Most people pass through the city on the way to Tayrona National Park or the Lost City archaeological site, but the city commands a timely stop to learn of the city’s important past.
