The service known as "colectivo" is often preferred by solo or couple travelers, as it is more economical and also safer, being an authorized taxi with a fixed fare. These are white taxis shared among several people to reduce costs. It represents the regular taxi fare (about USD23.00) but is divided among all passengers (up to 4 people). In the case of traveling with family, both the colectivo and the regular taxi have the same fare, and in that case, either option is valid.

The companies Combuses and Transportes Chachafruto provide public bus service (called 'busetas') from the airport to Medellin and vice versa. It is the most economical option, although less comfortable and secure. The cost of a single ticket is approximately USD3.60 and can be purchased directly from the driver.
