The formal name hints at this Colombian city's colonial relationship with Spain; it was founded in 1533 and named after the mother country's Cartagena. Colombia declared independence in 1810, but there's plenty about its fifth-largest city that evokes old Spain, including the impressive fort of Castillo San Felipe de Barajas, and the wall that encloses the old town, one of the few intact struct... ### Day 5: Enter Panama Canal at Cristobal **Arrives:** 06:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 AM ### Day 5: Cruising Panama Canal **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM ### Day 5: Exit Panama Canal Balboa **Arrives:** 06:00 PM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM ### Day 6: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 7: Puntarenas (Puerto Caldera), Costa Rica **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM Yet another chance to witness the wonders of eco-rich Costa Rica.

Its town square, Plaza de Armas, and the gorgeous parish church of Our Lady of Guadalupe, topped with an ornate crown and overlooking the port, serve as the loveliest representations of bygone ages. While on your Puerto Vallarta cr... ### Day 15: Cabo San Lucas **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 03:00 PM Los Cabos doesn't exude the same kind of charm as many other areas of inland Mexico do, but its twin towns—San José del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas—don't seem to mind, and neither do visitors who take a cruise to Cabo, who are more or less drawn here less for traditional Mexican culture than for the sun, the sand and the opportunity to just slow down and relax.
