Domestic flights (Avianca, LATAM, Wingo, JetSMART) are cheap and save long, winding bus rides; buses connect every city but are slow through the mountains.
Key facts
- Ride-hailing apps: Uber, DiDi, inDrive, Cabify.
- Driving: on the right. Tourists can drive with a valid home licence during their permitted stay; an IDP helps at police checks.
