After randomly coming across Kim Kim, we decided to take a family trip to Cartagena Colombia with our children ages to six and 12. Margoth and her team did an incredible job of planning so many amazing wonderful immersive experiences with wonderful guides and just really knocked it out of the park. When we arrived at our hotel, we were greeted with delicious specialty nonalcoholic drinks, and when we got to our room, there were special toucan gifts for our kids (who are obsessed with Encanto), local chocolates that were gilded for my daughters, golden birthday, and a beautiful coffee table book of Columbia. Some of our favorite memories were a mangrove tour with a local fisherman, a cooking class with a local chef at an adorable French Colombian bistro, a bird, sanctuary tour, and spending time at our beautiful hotel. Each of my kids had an amazing time, and my husband and I even had a chance to do a literary tour with a guide who knew Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a author we studied in college. We loved seeing local artisans and bought some local oil paintings and watercolor paintings that now hang on our walls overall, it was a trip of a lifetime!
Hotel Review
Or hotel was amazing! From the accommodations themselves to the staff and restaurant, it was a wonderful place relax after an adventurous day in the exploring the city. When we started to plan our trip, we were thinking about staying in the newer part of town, but I would absolutely recommend 100% staying in the old quarter of town. When we are able to return to Cartagena, we will absolutely stay at the same hotel!

Martín our guide met us just outside the airport with a sign and was friendly and warm and welcoming and my kids were so excited to have our own guide!

We ended up eating here about four times! It had something for everyone, and my kids loved it.
