Several convenient transportation options are available if you're in the Chapinero area (Chapinero Alto, Zona G, Rosales).

One of the safest and most reliable ways to travel is by using Uber or Cabify. From most parts of Chapinero, the trip to Universidad Javeriana takes around 10-15 minutes, depending on traffic. The estimated cost for this journey is between 3 USD to 4 USD.
