Jhon Is the name of Elmo's nephew and drives a taxi; PM Elmo for Jhon's number. I highly recommend this gigantic, jovial corroncho Jhon.

Ummm yeah Just go to the taxi booth and tell them where you're headed. They'll give you a read out with price and location, and will point you to the next available taxi. You hand it to the driver. This is a safe way. Pretty much the same as Bogota. I've never had a problem.

NOTE: the area between the airport and Barranquilla proper is not a pretty site. Don't be discouraged or frightened. You just get a first hand look at the conditions in which many in Colombia actually live.

Hey tone, you’re being too kind, the barrios you’re gonna go thru or near to, from the airport to your Barranquilla are real hell holes like nothing your virgin gringo eyes have seen before. These barrios are called, Soledad, Malambo, Santuario (my barrio), Rebolo, La Chinita (people in Santuario laugh at their poverty) and others, just hope the car don’t break down in the middle of that shit hole, not that anything is gonna happen but just as an added precaution is best to listen to Miguel and call my nephew, That modefoque lives in those parts and it helps that he’s a big fearless modefoque over 6 feet tall with massive arms as big as tree trunks, got shot in the arm once and did not even know it until a few days later, but he’s the funniest, friendliest most popular taxi driver in town. He’s only fault is that he ends up nailing a lotta of the college girls he drives to school and back. He’s a corroncho broad magnet, very charming with the ladies, reminds me of me in my youth.

Thanks for the info This gringo isn't scared, but rather Cautious. This has served me well in my 4 trips to Colombia and two years in Mexico City. Better safe than sorry.

tone, I just talked to John and told him to expect your call. I gotta find a way to buy that modefoque a NYC size taxi, I don’t understand how that big sonamanbiche gets his big ass in and outta those tiny Colombian cabs. I told him to stop eating too much of that sopa de guadul with all that freaking rice. I love rice as much as the next spic but I don’t eat it as much as like. I tend to only eat “el cuacayo” the bottom crunchy part and soaked that in greasy meat sauce.
