Getting from Pereira's airport to the city center

Pereira is served by Matecaña International Airport (PEI), located approximately 5 km west of the city center. This compact Colombian coffee region hub offers several airport transfers to city center options including taxis, ride-hailing services, public buses, and private transfers. Journey times are relatively short due to the airport's proximity, though traffic conditions can affect travel duration, particularly during peak hours.

Notes:

  • Prices in COP; table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Ride-hailing apps like Uber operate in a legal gray area in Colombia but are widely used.
  • Megabús requires a rechargeable card; purchase at stations or authorized vendors.
  • Road traffic can affect journey times, especially during morning and evening rush hours.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
