Everything below is a road we actually drive. Cielo.Travel runs its transfers through Safe Transfers by Cielo.Travel, which means a vetted driver, a car that is insured for the route, a price agreed before you get in, and somebody answering the phone if the plan changes at the airport. There is no meter, no auction, and no stranger deciding what the ride is worth once you are already in it.
Use the booker to price and confirm any of these. Then read the guide for wherever you are going, because a transfer is only half the day.

The four cities we drive out of
These four have day trips and long roads attached to them, so each one has its own page with every route we run from it, the guide for each destination, and the tour if you would rather the day were guided than just driven.
Bogotá
Nine routes: El Dorado to the city or straight to Zipaquirá, then Guatavita, La Chorrera, Villa de Leyva, San Gil and Barichara, Honda, Girardot and Melgar, the Tatacoa Desert, and the long road to Medellín.
Medellín
Five routes: José María Córdova down into the valley or straight to Guatapé, then Guatapé from the city, Santa Fe de Antioquia, the Coffee Region, and the long road to Cartagena.
Cartagena
Three routes plus the airport: Rafael Núñez into the walled city or Bocagrande, then east along the coast to Barranquilla, Santa Marta and Palomino.
Santa Marta
Three routes plus the airport: Simón Bolívar into town or straight past it, then east to Tayrona and Palomino, and west to Barranquilla.
Airport transfers everywhere else
We also meet flights in five more cities. There are no day-trip routes published from these yet, but the airport run works the same way: a driver inside arrivals with your name, a fixed price agreed before you land, and a car that is insured to carry you.
Barranquilla
Ernesto Cortissoz, and the Caribbean's working city at the mouth of the Magdalena. Also the end of two coast routes, from Cartagena and from Santa Marta.
Cali
Alfonso Bonilla Aragón, out on the Palmira road, and the city that argues it is the capital of salsa and is probably right.
Pereira
Matecaña, and the middle of the Coffee Region — the airport most travelers use to reach Salento and the Cocora Valley.
Bucaramanga
Palonegro, on the mesa above the city, for Santander: the Chicamocha Canyon, San Gil and Barichara.
Villavicencio
La Vanguardia, at the foot of the mountains east of Bogotá, and the gateway to the Llanos.
What you are actually booking
A private transfer, not a seat on somebody else's schedule. The car is yours for the route, the driver is one of ours, and the price you see in the booker is the price at the end — tolls and parking included, no surcharge for a late flight, no renegotiation at the door.
You can put stops in the plan — a town on the way, lunch, a viewpoint — and the quote accounts for them rather than penalizing you later. If you want the day to be more than the drive, a guided tour is usually the better purchase, and every card above links to the one we run there. If the route you want is not listed, ask: the list is what we publish, not what we can do.
Where to go next
Every destination on this page has a guide written by the team that runs the tours there and checked against primary sources. They are all in Colombia Travel Guides, and every one of them links back to the transfers and the tours for that place.
