Hi, yes, there are communal taxis that go to Cotorro. I have had good luck at finding these taxis in Old Havana. My preferred place is at Parque El Curita. It’s on Simon Bolivar Street (aka Reina) between Galiano and Aguila. (Here is the map). The park has parking space for cars inside the park, and most of the cars are taxis that will be collecting clients to take outside the city. The cars generally go to Habana del Este and Guanabacoa. The cars going to Guanabacoa will usually pass through Cotorro. They usually drop you off on the highway and then you walk to your destination. Tell the driver where you need to go and he will drop you off as close as possible. The cost should be less than 2cuc (50mn) for the ride. If they want you to pay more, it is a scam. Negotiate or walk away… It might take 30 minutes to fill the car with other passengers… But once it is full, the price is about 2cuc each or less, depending on where exactly you want to go. Good luck!
