Parque de Los Novios
Welcome to Parque de Los Novios, a charming and historic landmark in the heart of Santa Marta, Colombia. This picturesque park, also known as Parque Santander, has a fascinating history that stretches back centuries. Originally a small lake fed by the Manzanares River, it was transformed into a bustling market plaza in the 19th century. After the market relocated, the locals affectionately named it Placita Vieja, a name that has evolved over time. Today, Parque de Los Novios is a beloved spot for both locals and visitors. Its romantic name, 'Park of the Lovers', was inspired by the many couples who frequented it decades ago. However, don't let the name fool you; this park is a welcoming space for everyone, whether you're traveling alone, with friends, or with family.

Welcome to the scenic Parque Camellón Rodrigo de Bastidas, a historical and picturesque promenade located in the heart of Santa Marta, Colombia. Named after the city's founder, Rodrigo de Bastidas, this park offers a serene escape with its lush landscapes and rich history. In 1925, to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Santa Marta's founding, Colombian historian Ernesto Restrepo Tirado, then Consul in Seville, Spain, commissioned a bronze statue of Rodrigo de Bastidas. Sculpted by José Lafita, the statue, initially delayed, was eventually placed in its current location, adding historical depth to the park.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Santa Marta Walking Food Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santa Marta.
How much does Santa Marta Walking Food Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santa Marta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Santa Marta Walking Food Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santa Marta is not rushed.
Is Santa Marta Walking Food Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Santa Marta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Santa Marta Walking Food Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Santa Marta Walking Food Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 16. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4.5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Santa Marta Walking Food Tour?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santa Marta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santa Marta and add a light layer if any part of the 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Santa Marta Walking Food Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santa Marta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Santa Marta?
+
On Outty we rank every Santa Marta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hike for 4 days to the Lost City, Santa Marta, Sailing to Tayrona with Luis and his team: Unique!, MINCA: Eco-Walk, Coffee Farm, Waterfall & Chocolate Experience!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Santa Marta?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Santa Marta?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
