Transportation
Cali Airport offers several transportation options connecting the terminal with downtown Cali, the metropolitan area, and other municipalities in the Valle del Cauca department.
Private Transfers
If you're looking for the most convenient and hassle-free way to travel to or from the airport, you can choose a private door-to-door transfer service. This option is ideal for families or groups, as it allows you to book online in advance, ensuring a fixed price and eliminating the need to negotiate with local transportation providers.
After booking, your driver will be waiting in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name. If you are staying at a hotel or apartment, the driver will wait outside the building. When parking is available, they may occasionally wait for you in the reception area. The service offers vehicles of different capacities, ranging from cars for 3 passengers (USD 30.00) or 6 passengers (USD 60.00), to minibuses accommodating groups of up to 19 passengers (USD 132.00). It is recommended to book at least 12 hours in advance to ensure availability.
