Cartagena is a very touristic city, and as in any place, you should be careful with your belongings. I wouldn't recommend walking alone at night in areas that are not very crowded. It is a well-known destination both nationally and internationally, so I would recommend booking in advance to ensure the best rates and availability for the activities you want to do.
