Flying into Cartagena

We are so excited to celebrate our special day with you in Cartagena, Colombia! Here's everything you need to know about getting here.

Airport Details

Rafael Núñez International Airport (CTG) is the main airport serving Cartagena. It's well-connected to various international destinations, making it the ideal arrival point for our wedding.

International Flights

If you're flying internationally, you will likely have a layover in a major hub city like Miami, Panama City, or Bogotá before arriving in Cartagena. Be sure to check visa requirements for Colombia, especially if you plan on traveling to other destinations in South America.

Transportation from the Airport

The airport is conveniently located just 10-15 minutes from Cartagena's historic center and most major hotels. Taxis and ride-sharing services are readily available, and some hotels offer shuttle services. We recommend arranging transportation in advance if possible.

Transportation from Airport

Uber is a great option. You can also contact Jonathan on WhatsApp +57 304 6482713. He can also provide tours in Cartagena and surrounding areas. If you are using Jonathan, make sure you refer to Diego and Raquel's wedding for a discount.

Travel Tips

- Currency: The local currency is the Colombian Peso (COP). ATMs are available at the airport, but it’s always a good idea to have some local currency on hand.

We can’t wait to see you in Cartagena! Safe travels!
