Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals area of the passenger terminal, where international and domestic passengers come out after baggage reclaim (and customs for international flights), holding a sign with your name. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.
Comuna 13 (San Javier) lies on the western hillside of the Aburrá Valley, on the opposite side of Medellín from the airport, so the drive crosses the whole city. After the Túnel de Oriente the road enters the valley in the east, crosses the Medellín River and continues west through Laureles towards San Javier. Traffic in the centre and on the river crossings is the slowest part of the trip. The district was once one of the most troubled areas of the city and is now known for its community projects.
Most visits concentrate on the Las Independencias sector, where a series of covered outdoor escalators climbs the steep hillside between houses decorated with large murals and street art, with small shops and viewpoints along the way. San Javier, the terminus of Metro line B, is at the foot of the hill, and Metrocable line J climbs from there over the neighbourhood. Streets near the escalators are narrow and steep, so cars stop on the access roads below and the rest is on foot. Guided walking tours usually start near San Javier station.
Public transport instead: Combuses (airport route, payable with the Metro Civica card) bus Aeropuerto from José María Córdova International Airport passenger terminal to Exposiciones Metro station, north access (Carrera 51 No. 37-00, Medellín). Metro de Medellín A + B from Exposiciones station (after the airport bus) to San Javier station (Calle 45 No. 98-80), line B, changing at San Antonio, 2 changes. No direct public transport links the airport with Comuna 13. The airport bus ends at Exposiciones Metro station; from there Metro line A to San Antonio and line B to San Javier, the end of the line, reach the edge of the district.
