With the arrival at the port of Cartagena of two cruise ships with 27,000 tourists flood the city in the day today, shows that we have an interesting and attractive tourism product, beyond the sun and sand, covering culture and leisure.
So I think the councilman of Tourism of the City of Cartagena, Javier Herrero, who says that in late 2008, have washed up on our port a total of 42 cruises, the same number of scales that had contracted in early summer for the year next.
This shows that the tourism sector in our city is a growing sector, according to Javier Herrero, could serve as a palliative to the crisis hits us, it may be only a grain of sand but is ultimately a contribution after positive in these times.
In addition, Councillor of Tourism has recently pointed out that we have visited five U.S. cruise companies have shown great interest in making a stop here soon.
It seems more like what our port is its proximity to downtown, the berth is 200 meters from the area that comprises Puerto de Culturas, a fact that makes it more attractive.
