5.00They are super professional! I was in Colombia with some friends a few weeks ago and we hired them to pick us up in Cartagena and take us to Tayrona. They were punctual and very helpful. Also, I forgot a jacket at the hotel in Tayrona and they did me the favor of picking it up and taking it to a friend in Cartagena so she could bring it to me in Spain (I had already left Colombia when I realized I had forgotten it). They were super super friendly! A 10!!!
Best Transfer Service in Colombia!

5.00A.O. de Viages TQ has to be the best private transportation car & van I ever used anywhere of the many international trips I have taken. Our family of 6 and luggage were accommodated in spacious late model Mercedes vans. The professionalism of the drivers and easy communication with office made our travels through Colombia memorable. Always on time from our first pickup in Cartagena to getting us up to Minca on some tricky roads to where we were staying and weeks later picking us in Santa Marta and returning us to Cartagena was flawless, We had two different drivers who were excellent and calm. Truly a gold standard company. that I can highly recommend and will definately use when I return to Colombia !
Carlos was fantastic!

5.00Made a nice stop in Barranquilla at a food court next to the Magdalena River. Better food and atmosphere than you'd see in USA. Crepes and fried yucca were excellent.
Great experience of comfort, safety and punctuality

5.00We flew to Cartagena and were given all kinds of Service, from airport pickup and hotel transfer, to two days transportation to Santa Marta/Tayrona to the hotel, and to 3 days transportation to Valledupar. We were lucky to meet a driver (Carlos) who is as well as prudent is very friendly. At all times we feel safe, confident and informed about tourist sites to visit. The company is on the lookout for wasap at all times which facilitates management. They are fast and give tailored solutions. Highly recommended.
They made our tour unforgettable!
