I did do a search and read through any posts I could find, including a fantastic trip report from David.
My husband and I will be in Cartagena in February for 5 full days and 5 nights. I'm wondering if that's perhaps too long. I found really cheap flights to Medellin, so we could potentially go there for 2 of the nights as well. It seems a bit more appealing than Bogota to me, if we were to add another city.
For reference- We are seasoned travelers, who like to be on the go. We like historical sights, live music, hiking, shopping (well, I do anyway) and great restaurants, whether it's a dive or multi-course fine dining experience. My husband isn't a beach or pool person, so we tend not to lounge around if it's just the 2 of us. We like spontaneity and are known to book last minute trips if we find good airfare.
Would love any input and recommendations on Cartagena, and possibly Medellin if that sounds doable. Thanks!
