For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Cartagena Airport to Cartagena Cruise Terminal per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Cartagena Cruise Terminal involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.

Public transport from Cartagena Airport to Cartagena Cruise Terminal: is there a bus, train or metro?

Public transport from Cartagena Airport runs mainly into Cartagena itself: cartagena has no train; buses and shared minivans serve the airport, but the terminal is so close to the Walled City that a private car is quick and simple, and it is the practical choice for Bocagrande, the cruise port, the Rosario pier or the long drives to Playa Blanca and Santa Marta. Reaching Cartagena Cruise Terminal from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.

So the honest comparison for Cartagena Cruise Terminal is this: public transport is the cheapest option for one person with a cabin bag and time to spare, and a private Cartagena Airport to Cartagena Cruise Terminal transfer is the better one for everybody else - two or more travellers, families, older relatives, anyone landing late, anyone with proper luggage. The price is per vehicle, not per person, which is why a family of four often pays less than it would on four bus or train tickets plus the taxi at the end.

About Cartagena Cruise Terminal

The cruise terminal at the Port of Cartagena, in the Manga district, lies about 9 km south-west of Cartagena Airport. Cartagena is the busiest cruise port in Colombia and one of the main ports of call in the southern Caribbean. Ships dock at the modern terminal in the Manga district, on the Bay of Ánimas, from where the Walled City is roughly a ten-minute drive and Bocagrande about twenty. The terminal has shops, a tourist information area and ranks of tour vehicles, and passengers can take short shore excursions to the fortress of San Felipe, the old town and the Rosario Islands. On busy days several ships call at once, and the port area becomes crowded.
