We left the ship with plenty of time to make this tour, but because of long lines getting a taxi and the subsequent congested traffic on the drive to the meeting place, we were over an hour late. Several cruise ships docked at the same time. More than 10,000 of us filled the streets. When we got to the meeting place, we found no trace of a tour. After some time, a wonderful tour associate with the Cartagena walking tour, Miguel Cuenca, called me personally and offered an afternoon tour starting at 2 pm. However, our ship was pulling out at 1:30 pm so we wanted to be back at 1 pm. Miguel then offered for us to join the tour in progress, but by the time we would have joined the tour but with all the traffic, we worried about making it back to the ship.
