Cartagena is considered a leading destination in the luxury tourism segment, thanks to its unique combination of a colonial city recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Caribbean beaches, world-class hotels, and a constantly growing culinary scene. The renewal of the line is expected to strengthen tourism flows from Europe to South America and open new opportunities for travel agencies, wholesalers, and commercial partners.
