Montería Taxi Fares Explained
Montería taxi fares are set by municipal decree and use a taximeter with a base fare, called banderazo, plus units that increase with distance and time. A minimum fare applies to short trips, and there are surcharges for nighttime and airport service.
A typical 5 km ride within the city costs around 13,000 to 15,000 COP, depending on traffic. Airport trips cost more because of the distance to Los Garzones and the airport surcharge.
Drivers may offer fixed prices for common routes or airport runs instead of using the meter. Always confirm whether the meter or a fixed fare applies before starting the trip.
