That depends largely on where youād like to go. Downtown Pereira, about 2 miles from Pereira Airport (PEI-Matecana Intl.), can be a little daunting to drive in. Make things easy by going for something small, fuel-efficient, and simple to operate. That being said, Pereira is an excellent base to explore some of the dunes in Risaralda. If your getaway is more about hitting the wide open road, then you may like something with a little more trunk space and room to move about. How about an SUV or a full-size car?
