Friends are an essential part of human development. For many people they are "the family you choose," and that is why trips among friends have become more and more frequent to different national and international destinations. 

Cartagena is one of the cities that receives most visitors in Colombia every year. In the months between January and July 2019, 278,989 foreign flights arrived, according to a report presented by the Cartagena Tourist Information System (Sitcar). In 2022, this figure is expected to increase significantly. 

For those planning their next trip to the 'Corralito de Piedra,' here are five places to visit with friends in the city: 

Alquímico

This bar located in the heart of the walled center was recognized as part of the list of the 50 best bars in 2020 and was also named the most sustainable bar in the same year. 

Its menu consists of an exclusive mix of alcoholic beverages and fruity flavors.

Eteka Beach

This is a Boutique Hotel, SPA & Slow Beach Lounge for people who are willing to connect with Mother Earth, calm the mind and soothe the soul. 

It is the ideal place to disconnect on vacation with friends.

The National Aviary

This is a wonderful place for those who love animals and to learn more about endemic species. 

The National Aviary is located in Playa Blanca, 30 minutes from downtown Cartagena and is a space designed to conserve and promote knowledge about Colombian diversity, its sustainable use and responsible management through animal welfare practices.

Botika Bar

This bar is located on the terrace of the Hotel Santa Clara, a place that was a convent for nuns more than a century ago. 

Mister Babilla by Peninsula

One of the most iconic nightclubs in the city is Mister Babilla. Located on Arsenal Street in front of the historic neighborhood of Getsemaní, this place offers an atmosphere full of crossover music, good national drinks and dancing until the wee hours of the morning.
