Creator's Key Takeaways
I had absolutely no plan for today. I got completely lost trying to find the free viewing area. But somehow that turned into one of the most memorable days of the trip.
You never know what you're going to find when you just go out and explore.
It turned out to be an amazing day. It would have been a little better if I could have seen some of the procession, but just seeing the city get ready for Holy Week.

I had no plans in Cartagena, Spain… and somehow it became one of the most memorable days of the trip. The entire city was getting ready for Holy Week, and something about the atmosphere felt different. During our final stop in Spain on Royal Caribbean’s Harmony of the Seas transatlantic cruise, I spent the day wandering through Cartagena during Holy Week preparations. From hidden side streets and unexpected views to Roman ruins and getting completely lost trying to find the free viewing area, this ended up becoming one of the most memorable days of the trip. This wasn’t a “top things to do” kind of day. Just a real experience exploring Cartagena and seeing where the day took me. 🚢 Ship: Harmony of the Seas 🌍 Cruise: 16-Night Transatlantic 📍 Port: Cartagena, Spain 👇 A few things I actually used on this port day: 🔋 MagSafe Battery Pack (because mine was almost dead 😅) https://amzn.to/4eEaVfT 👜 My Crossbody Travel Bag https://amzn.to/4uaAlqm Some of the links above are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you purchase through them — at no extra cost to you.
