The journey begins

Private jet to Cartagena

Cartagena combines a walkable historic core with Caribbean island excursions. Balance the heat of the day with shaded courtyards and arrange island transfers around the actual conditions at sea.

Where to land for Cartagena

Rafael Núñez International serves Cartagena. A hotel in the walled city and an island property require different final arrangements, so coordinate any boat connection separately from the private-flight arrival.

The operating carrier should confirm aircraft suitability, handling, permissions and the onward transfer for your itinerary.

What to do in Cartagena

Explore the walled city's streets and shaded courtyards before spending time in Getsemaní. The Rosario Islands can add a marine outing, but that is a separate trip shaped by sea conditions. A slower schedule suits the tropical heat better than continuous midday walking.
