About this activity

Your travel day becomes part of the experience.

Leave directly from your Cartagena accommodation and travel privately to Santa Marta.

Choose the destination that matches your stay: Santa Marta city, Minca or the Tayrona coast, including Los Naranjos, Guachaca and Buritaca.

Your group travels privately in an air-conditioned vehicle with a professional local driver.

There are no bus terminals, shared rides or negotiations with drivers along the way.

Many visitors do not realize that an ordinary private-looking car may not be authorized to transport paying passengers between Colombian cities.

Our journeys operate in Servicio Especial vehicles authorized for national routes. We also maintain a backup fleet so an unexpected vehicle issue does not leave you searching for another way to continue your trip.

Before departure, you receive your driver’s name, phone number, and license plate. You can also select an option that includes a separate English-speaking guide.
