Santa Cruz de Mompox, declared a National Monument and a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, is a cultural and historical jewel in the middle of the Magdalena River Delta. Mompox gained importance in colonial times as a rearguard for Cartagena de Indias. We leave Cartagena to head south, crossing the Canal del Dique, and stop at the village San Jacinto, land of hammock weavers and multiple handicrafts. We continue to Mompox via Carmen de Bolivar and Santa Ana to Talaiga Nueva, which lies on the Mompox Island.

You arrive at Mompóx and check-in at the hotel of your choice. Around 03:00 p.m. we start a walking tour visiting all places of interest, such as the churches of Santa Barbara, De la Concepcion, San Augustín, San Carlos Palace and Calle de la Albarrada.
