City Tours

City Tours, in a chiva (a colorful, traditional bus) depart daily at 14:00 from Av San Martín between Calles 4 and 5 in Bocagrande. The four-hour tour includes rides around Bocagrande, Castillo Grande and the walled city, plus visits to the Convento de la Popa and Castillo de San Felipe.

You can also take a city tour in a horse-drawn carriage, which gives a glance of Bocagrande and the walled city. The carriages depart from the corner of Av San Martín and Calle 4 in Bocagrande and go along the waterfront to the old town. After a run around the main streets of the walled city they return via either Av San Martín or the waterfront, whichever you prefer. They operate daily from 17:00 until midnight. The tour takes one hour and costs around around US$15 per coach for up to four people. There are also nighttime tours, which are more a party parade than a sightseeing tour.
