This is the same video. We used the wrong form of Colombia, so we changed it.
We go on a Highlights of Cartagena, Fortress and Las Bovedas Tour in Columbia.
We were on a 29 day Transatlantic and Panama Canal Cruise on the Emerald Princess.
The tour was $70 US each. We purchased it onboard. It was a good tour, not great. We saw a lot of the old city.
This video was recorded in November 2019.
I love your still photography.
Thank you very much! Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Colombia looks beautiful ❤
It is a mix of very old was very new. We didn’t realize it was such a big city. Thanks for watching.
Thank you. We are going again in Jan. Last one in August was a killer (too hot).
August would be unbearable for us. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
That was a long tour!!! I can imagine that most of the old passengers ended exhausted after all that walking. Nice channel, cheers from Chile
Yes it was! We are due to visit Chile in March2022. Thanks for subscribing!

I’m new to this channel, just got to say wow!! Nice job
Welcome aboard! Thank you for your comments.
Hey, Gareth and Janet, I'm enjoying your videos from your Panama Canal transit on the Emerald. I am heading to SF in December to pick up the Ruby for the reverse sailing, Thanks for letting me cheat off of your homework. Y'all are the best. Hope your trip on the Majestic was just peachy.
We are glad you are enjoying them. We have a ship tour of the Ruby, also. Thank you for subscribing!
Wow, so busy now. We went in 2006. When going threw old town streets, had a couple bike police that followed and watched our back. Not many street vendors, but lots of beggers ( some faking lose limbs).
There was a strike going on when we were there. Had to cancel our Hop On/Hop Off bus tour. Don't forget to subscribe.
PS good video as usual.
Thanks again!
Thank you for the awesome video! I’ll be visiting Cartagena in January 2024 on a cruise so I look forward to Port Oasis very much. Would especially love to see sloths. How high up the tree was this sloth? Just wondering if I should bring a very long telephoto lens. Thank you so much once again.
The trees are 20-30 feet tall and the sloths are only about foot-long. You may need a telephoto lens for a close up picture. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to a channel.

Nice tour excursion
Thank you very much!
that was great. When you got off the boat did you have to take your passport or was the wristband what they use for re-entry?
No passport, just ship card or medallion. That’s the way it is in almost every port. They do say take some sort of picture ID, so we bring our drivers license. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Why was the Trumpet player playing "O Canada"? Very strange.
He’s Canadian??? We really don’t know. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Was it very hot when you were walking around the fort and city?
It was hot and humid. But tolerable. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
As I new subscriber I wanted to ask you which are the top 3 most beautiful countries you had been to??
That is a tough question. It depends. if we're talking just scenery, we can honestly say, the United States is the most beautiful country we have visited. Remember, it includes Alaska and Hawaii (not to mention California). Venice, Rome and Varallo Sesia in Italy are beautiful, if you like history. Almost any island in the Caribbean is good if you want beaches. Especially Grand Cayman and Barbados. Bermuda is nice, but not in the Caribbean. For tropical island beauty, Tahiti and Moorea (we have not been to Bora Bora). If you like rolling fields of green, then you want Great Britain. This is such a good question that we are going to put it, and a lengthier answer, in our 'What's New' section of our website: portmonkeys.com. Thank you for your comments and we are glad you are a subscriber.
@@PortMonkeys Thank you for your answer, I hope to travel next year, if the pandemic calms down and this videos are really awesome to put in mind a country to visit. Have a nice day!
Wow that's a lot to se an do on that excursion what was name of it?
When we went, it was called “Highlights of Cartagena: Fortress & La Bovedas” and it was $70 US onboard. Princess now offers a tour called “Best Of Cartagena: San Felipe Fortress & Las Bovedas” that is $70. The descriptions are almost identical. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Would you recommend changing money when I'm in Columbia?
We do not recommend changing money, unless you’re staying there for more than a day. We think most places take US dollars we didn’t buy anything. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Correction.. It's not Columbia.
Colombia is the right name.
7:10 going to cartegana February 12
We hope you enjoy it. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
What’s the name of this tour
The name of this tour was "Highlights of Cartagena, Fortress and Las Bovedas". We noticed it's not on the Princess website any longer. They do offer a tour called "Best Of Cartagena: San Felipe Fortress & Las Bovedas" that seems to be the same tour for the same price, $70. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
Cruise tour…
We booked this tour on the ship, if that’s what you mean. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
