Alfonso Bonilla Arag&oacute;n airport sits in Palmira, across the Cauca river, so every arrival begins with a drive, and the best days out of the city &mdash; south to Popay&aacute;n, west to the Pacific, north to the coffee region &mdash; are longer drives again. This page has the roads we drive from Cali, with the guide or the tour for each one.<\/p>\n<p>Cielo.Travel runs its transfers through <strong>Safe Transfers by Cielo.Travel<\/strong>: a vetted driver, an insured car, a fixed price with the tolls included, and an operations team that works in English and Spanish around the clock.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cielo-bkr\" id=\"book\">\n<h2>Book a Cali transfer<\/h2>\n<p>Airport to hotel, hotel to airport, a driver for the night, or the road south or west.

A host meets you inside arrivals with a Safe Transfers sign, your flight is tracked, and a late landing does not change the price.

Bars inside the city close at three; Juanchito, across the Cauca in the municipality of Candelaria, stays open until five from Friday to Sunday, and the crossing between the two is where a night out usually goes wrong. A driver booked by the hour solves it: the driver waits through the set, and the ride back across the river is part of the booking, agreed at the hotel rather than at the club door.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cielo-rt\"><div class=\"rt\"><h3>Salsa first, then the city<\/h3><p>Take the lesson before the club: Cali dances fast and on the balls of the feet, and one class changes how the night feels.

San Cipriano is a river of clear water in the rainforest, reached on the brujitas, motorbike-powered carts that run on an old railway line. And from July to October humpback whales calve in the Uramba Bah&iacute;a M&aacute;laga national park, off Buenaventura.

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 included, no extra charge when your flight lands late, and nothing to renegotiate at the door.<\/p>\n<p>You can put stops in the plan &mdash; a town on the way, lunch, a viewpoint &mdash; 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 the cards above link to the ones we run.
