Luis picked us up at our hotel in Cartagena and drove us to Santa Marta. He was on time and the vehicle was comfortable. He picked us up a few days later for the return trip. Luis was reliable and we rate his services A+.

So this place is in between Baranquilla and Cartagena. Its about an hour from Cartagena and two from Baranquilla. Its definitely out of the way but worth looking for. My guide knew how to get there so it was no problem!!
The best time to go is on a sunny day. Thats when the pink really stands out. Its an old salt factory that made a town and then decimated it when it left. They are trying to come back via tourism but they dont make it easy. You have to stop at a gate and be escorted by a townsperson (who we paid 5 dollars) and then you are allowed to enter and park. The advantage of the townsperson is that they can tell you the history and you are also helping them since there are not many other ways to earn money in this place. I didnt mind paying.
You can wade out and they have chairs for you to sit in the water and take pictures. Additionally, you can take a piece of salt home with you that you broke off yourself from the many mounds. It was about an hour tour and then off to the next site. I wouldnt go just to see this, but would definitely include it as part of a longer road trip.

Excellent service. Connected with Luis Eduardo from Miami and he picked us up at the airport punctually. We then toured the old city with him and were quite impressed with his historical knowledge and skills to navigate the streets of old town. We took a trip to Playa Blanca, which was extraordinary! Luis is a gentleman who treated my 85 year old Mother with great patience and kindness. I highly recommend this company.

They didn't show up to the airport and they kept the money. Doesn't get any worse than that in my book.

Sir good morning, we want to inform you that the day you scheduled your reservation our employees were waiting for you at the time you scheduled your flight, for two hours that the time we have stipulated and did not come out we thought he had stayed,but when we checked your reservation we realized that you apparently had a flight was for the city of Barranquilla and we are in Cartagena for this reason obviously there was no one in Barranquilla when you landed please check that it was you who made a mistake, then do not blame us for your big mistake, because the quality of our services is undisputed and we remain the company with the best service.
Company with the
best service and at the lowest cost in the city, thank you very much.

Maybe it was our misunderstanding, but we thought we would be driven by Luis. He has great reviews on this site. We got a different driver who did not speak any English. If we had, rating would be 5.
While the transportation to Aviary and Playa Blanca was fine, and price is very good, we did not get any benefits as described by comments here, of a driver with insight and recommendations.
I would clarify in advance whether your driver will speak English.

I have used VIP Taxi service on all four of my trips to Cartagena. Each time I have been picked up at the requested time. The driver has been courteous and friendly. On one occasion, it took forever for me to clear passport control. I was late by quite a considerable margin and would not have been surprised if the driver would have given up on me. However, true to form, he was patiently waiting for me, with his usual cheerful demeanor. I did not have cash and could not access the machines at the airport. As a valued customer, I was able to pay a few days later. I appreciated how thoughtful and considerate this was as I was exhausted after a long plane journey. I highly recommend this taxi service.

I can not say enough things about Louis and VIP company! I was so nervous about booking from the US but they patiently answered all my annoying emails. Louis picked us up at the airport holding a sign and we didnt have to go thru any of the chaos of hagglers, taxis, etc. The following day he drove us to playa blance and walked us thru the ridiculous amount of chaos there. He walked us to the boat where the owner of the banana beach club was waiting with our boat. They took us to this part of the beach that was less crowded called banana beach club. We had a large bed right on the beach and had every need taken care of! They even keep the vendors away if you don't want them. Louis would stay on our bed and watch our things when we went in the water or exploring. He was a God send! He arranged this whole day for us and it was awesome! He then took us to airport in the last day. He was always on time and he protected us against all the possible scary situations. I seriously believe he made our trip!

Hello Cathy, My wife and i used VIP Taxi service last month. He was correct, punctual and also shared interesting information in spanish with my wife. We thought it was reasonably priced. We travelled from Cartagena to Santa Marta - 1 way and he charged us roughly 150 Euro but it was a 4 to 5 hour journey and he had to return to Cartagena. Not sure what he would charge for a full day but i would recommend his services.
