hi guys,

i'm coming to baja next week and i'm so excited. it's my first trip there.

can anyone tell me what possibilities i've got to get from the airport to the hotels at the corridor? and what's a reasonable price for a taxi from airport to melia cabo real?

thanks a lot. anna

by far the best deal if you dont have a lot of luggage is to walk out to the main road (under a mile or just about that if you come in to the new terminal) and take a regular bus from the bus stop out there. I think the fare is 75 cents.

the taxies are going to get you for about $75 dollars.

75,- U$? Well, that's quite expensive... perhaps I should rent a car then...

thank you!

the taxis are an absolute rip-off. If you are staying at the melia you may get a deal on the airport van thingys that go to the hotels but even that is pretty steep from what I hear. I have never done that though so am not sure.

I get in Saturday at 5:30pm if you want a ride. Otherwise keep your ears open on the plane and befriend someone who is getting picked up.

Take the shuttle bus..buy a ticket inside the terminal for $12 US..they stop at all the hotels

Take Transportes Terrestres, the yellow and white nine passenger vans. If you come into the old terminal, the stand will be to the right as you come out of the baggage claim area. If you are in the new terminal, you will have to walk over to the old one. The tickets are now $14, not $12 as suggested in another post. On balance, this is the quickest and least expensive way to get to your hotel.
