Driving in Medellin

Traffic Rules

Unlike in the UK, driving in Colombia is on the right-hand side of the road, which may take some getting used to. Seat belts are mandatory for all passengers, and child seats are required for children under 12. Speed limits are typically 30kph in the city and up to 80kph on highways.

Parking

In Medellin, on-street parking is charged by the hour, but numerous parking garages offer safe parking options too.

Car Class Recommendations

Compact cars are a good choice for navigating Medellin's busy streets. For larger parties or travelling outside city, consider a SUV.

At The Heart of Colombian Culture

Attractions

Art enthusiasts should not miss the Museo de Antioquia, which showcases Fernando Botero’s artwork. For a deep dive into the local lifestyle, drive to Comuna 13 neighborhood, which is renowned for its street art and cultural history.

Outdoor Adventures

Beaches

While Medellin itself doesn't have beaches, within a few hours’ drive, beautiful coastal areas like Santa Marta and Cartagena await to let you bask in the Caribbean sun.

How to get There

Fly into José María Córdova International Airport, located 35km southeast of Medellin. Here, you can pick up your rental car and kickstart your Colombian adventure!

Weather and Climate

The city has a consistent climate year-round, with temperatures averaging between 16-28°C, hence the nickname, "City of Eternal Spring".

Currency

The currency used in Colombia is the Colombian Peso (COP). Credit cards are widely accepted but it’s also recommended to have some cash on hand.

Savour the True Flavours of Colombia

From the local favourite Bandeja Paisa, a hearty platter of beans, rice, pork belly, and more, to Arepas, Medellin is a foodie paradise. Don't forget to wash it down with a shot of Aguardiente, the local spirit!

Conclusion

Medellin is a vibrant city with rich history, colourful neighbourhoods, delicious cuisine, and welcoming locals, perfectly explored with the freedom of a rental car. Are you ready for the adventure?
