Highlights
This is a private tour to the TOTUMO VOLCANO, It is an attractive and popular place for being full of medicinal mud. Its inhabitants claim that it is healing thanks to its components, such as water, silica, aluminum, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron and other minerals. According to testimonies from residents and visitors, it has therapeutic properties, leaving a positive appearance on the skin and relieving muscle and joint pains. In summer, the volume of mud in the volcanic cone decreases; in winter, due to the swamp next to the volcano, it fills to overflow. With a duration of approximately 1 hour on the volcano, the entrance and immersion in the attraction have a maximum duration of 15 to 30 minutes. Massages, drinks, photos (with personal mobile devices) and a bath with a pumpkin in the swamp are offered on site, by a native who takes care of removing the mud from the people. Payment for these services is voluntary. We're going back to town.

About Cartagena
Cartagena, on Colombia's Caribbean coast, is a walled colonial port of flower-draped balconies, colourful plazas and warm, music-filled evenings.
The walled old city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a maze of cobbled streets and squares lined with pastel houses, churches and bougainvillea. The Clock Tower gate leads into Plaza de los Coches, and the cathedral, the Church of San Pedro Claver and the Palace of the Inquisition are all within a few blocks. Walking the thick ramparts at sunset is a local ritual.
Top-ranked sights in Cartagena: Rosario Islands (Islas del Rosario), Old Town Cartagena, Santo Domingo Church (Iglesia de Santo Domingo).
