I am Daniel G., a licensed private tour guide in Cartagena (Guide #13938), proudly born and raised in this vibrant city. Since 2015, I have dedicated my career to sharing the history, culture, and traditions of Cartagena with travelers from all over the world. Over the years, I have had the honor of guiding a wide range of visitors, including diplomats, international business leaders, authors, and National Geographic photographers. Each experience has shaped my approach to guiding—combining professionalism with authenticity, and always ensuring that every tour feels like a unique cultural exchange. My style as a guide reflects my core values: passion for what I do, love for my city, a warm sense of humor, and dedication to providing insightful, memorable experiences. I believe a tour is more than just sightseeing—it should be a journey into the heart of Cartagena, leaving visitors with lasting connections and stories to take home. To ensure the highest standards, I am certified by the Colombian Government, hold Aquila’s International Tour Guiding Certification, and a Travelife Sustainability Certificate in Tourism. These credentials reflect my commitment not only to excellence in service, but also to responsible and sustainable tourism. My goal is to continue growing as a professional tour leader while positioning Cartagena as one of the world’s most unforgettable destinations. When you choose me as your guide, you are not just booking a tour—you are embarking on a genuine experience crafted with knowledge, energy, and care.

Michael S.Canada
We spent part of two days with Daniel in Cartagena. He was very knowledgeable and helpful and provided us with a great overview and tour of Cartagena. We even added an evening street food component to our tour at his suggestion which was great. Highly recommended.
Ian M.United States
Daniel was the perfect guide for Cartagena. His knowledge of the history, and the current status were interesting and enlightening. He brought the past and the present together. Great communicator, well organized, good natured, fun to work with, friends with everyone in the city are attributes that we think of in describing Daniel. There is a lot to see in 3 hours but he makes work and it is fun to do.
