Barranquilla to Cartagena Transport
Transfer Between Barranquilla and Cartagena de Indias
If you want to travel between 2 of Colombia's most popular tourist cities without worrying about anything, this transfer between Barranquilla and Cartagena de Indias is the perfect option.
We'll pick you up at the meeting point you choose when booking, hop on a comfortable car or minibus, and sit back and relax during the ride, which takes about 1 hour through the spectacular scenery of the Colombian Caribbean.
During your visit to Cartagena, we recommend getting lost in the colorful streets of the walled historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There, you'll find squares like Plaza de Santo Domingo and Plaza de Bolívar, as well as the iconic San Felipe de Barajas Castle.
In Barranquilla, a must-do is walking along the Gran Malecón del Río, a long promenade along the Magdalena River packed with restaurants, recreation areas, and landmarks like the Ventana al Mundo and the Shakira statue.
How Does It Work?
When booking, you'll need to select the option you prefer from the 3 available:
- One-way to Cartagena de Indias: we'll pick you up at your hotel in Barranquilla and take you to Cartagena de Indias. Please note that pickup is only available at hotels in the northern zone. If your accommodation isn't in that area, we'll pick you up at the McDonald's on 93rd Street.
- One-way to Barranquilla: in this case, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Cartagena de Indias and take you to your hotel in Barranquilla. Please note that pickup is only available at hotels in the Bocagrande or Manzanillo areas. If your accommodation isn't in either of those, we'll pick you up at the Torre del Reloj monument.
- Round-trip transfer: this is the most complete option, covering transportation to and from your destination from whichever starting point you choose when booking.
