Transportation
Last year, when we weren’t walking (which we
loved doing), we used The Metro & Taxi’s mostly.
Buses are options too.
●
The Metro system in Medellin is the best in
all of South America!
The cost is +/- $1.50 / round trip.
●
Taxis are everywhere, easy to get cabs.
Our avg cost was +/- $5, and that was
cross-town.
