She has never been to Cartagena. I was just wondering if someone knew of something nice to do. This is why I asked for some ideas. HMMMMMMM makes sense to me.

i second rosario islands...its a nice day trip....cartagena also has a lot of sights to see with the old city....as well a trip to the botanical gardens is nice to take in....and if you want to try something else a little different there is a gator farm with gaters hatching in there shells..right up to 5 or 6 feet in lenth...hundreds of them 1.5 inch...1 ft...2ft and up...also a few other animals at the gator farm as well ....if your into doing a little partying there are party buses that can be arranged (with people from all over on the bus)that will pick you up in the evening (not exspensive)...the buses do pickups at diffent hotels and some booze is supplied and they basically take you on a tour while you drink your face off and eventualy meet up with other party buses to party a little more..lots of singing and loud music on the buses ..but it is fun and you may run into people from various countrys and citys...final stop off is at a night club and from there they will give you a lift back to your hotel ..or if you wish stay and party....don,t know of any great deals on hotels there..but ive found quite often a furnished apartment is cheaper and you have a lot more room..just have to find a decent one....have fun.....heading to cartagena myself around 6th or 7th of jan with my lady...

if you like electronic music there's a fest called ULTRAMAR. It's like 3 days of party and it's very busy. this year i think it has dj tiesto, carl cox, paul van dyk, etc. etc. it's meant to be good fun. new year's eve in cartagena is also a common plan to do here... like i'm from barranquilla and i love it but it's only fun if you have family here, otherwise... i don't know. although every club has a party and those parties are great. but cartagena is meant to be a wayyyy better place to spend that night.

Forget hotels- rent an apartment in Cartagena Here's a link to some apartments for rent in Cartagena. They are all remodeled to western standards. http://www.colombiarental.net/

You'll be there at high season, so there is no guarantee they'll be available but you can try. Decent hotels are ususally even more expensive than apartments, even though the apartments are much nicer overall.
