Local Tips
For business travelers: Get Tarjeta TuLlave card immediately at El Dorado Airport or first TransMilenio station. Airport to city center: Take Airport feeder bus to Portal El Dorado then Calle 26 trunk line. Key business areas - Zona Financiera (Carrera 7/Av 19), Zona Rosa (Calle 82-85), Zona T (Carrera 13). Allow extra time for peak hours (7-9 AM, 5-7 PM). Rideshare safer for evening meetings. Download TransMiApp for real-time updates. Daily transport budget: COP $20,000-40,000.
