Cartagena is served by Rafael Núñez International Airport (CTG), located approximately 3 km northeast of the historic walled city center.

The airport is well connected to the city's main tourist areas including the Old Town (Centro Histórico), Bocagrande, and Getsemaní.

  • Official airport taxis operate with fixed zone-based fares displayed at the taxi stand.
  • Ride-hailing apps like Uber operate in a legal gray area in Colombia; drivers may ask you to sit in the front seat.

  • Traffic can be heavy during peak hours and tourist season, affecting journey times.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
