Getting around Barranquilla is best done using taxis or ride-sharing apps for convenience and safety, especially at night. Negotiate taxi fares beforehand or ensure the meter is used. For shorter distances, 'busetas' (minibuses) are an affordable option but can be crowded and follow less predictable routes. Walking is feasible in certain well-developed areas like the Malecón, but the city's layout and heat make it less practical for extensive exploration. Renting a car is generally not recommended due to traffic and parking challenges.
