Alex and Kim’s Adventures

Written by Kim We planned a free walking tour to explore Cartagena. Many of you know that we love to go off and explore via a walking tour and the one offered from Viator sounded expensive for what they offered so our plan was to take a cab downtown and join the free walking tour. […]

Written by Kim Our port today was Colon in Panama. We enjoyed a beautiful day in Panama on a Viator tour we booked with Almiza tours. We met the tour right outside the port where a small van took about 18 of us around Panama. Traffic downtown was a bit crazy but Bruce, our driver […]
