• Take a taxi from the airport to ‘El Mercado’ (Santa Marta’s market) on Carrera 11 con Calle 11.
• From ‘El Mercado’ find a bus going to the Tayrona park. Let the driver know you are going to “Costeño Beach”. The bus ride will cost about COP $7,000 and will take about an hour.
• Once you leave Santa Marta, you will cross a few towns. The landscape will become mountainous and lush green. The bus will stop at the Tayrona Park, don’t get off though. Take the chance to remind the driver you are getting off about 7-10 mins from the park. Let them know the hotel entrance is just after the Mendihuaca resort.
• Almost there! Once you get off the bus you will see our sign on the entrance to a road that goes through a plantation. Walk 10 mins towards the ocean. The path will turn right; continue walking for another 15 mins.
