Is private transportation from the airport or taxis better?

December 26, 2022

 

 

When you are planning a trip to Los Cabos, you usually have in mind that it is necessary to hire a transportation service from the airport to take you to the hotel or to whatever your destination is once you arrive in the city, especially if you are new. In general, there are two alternatives to meet this need, the Cabo airport shuttle, or taxis. Both models have notable differences between them that are important to identify to enjoy the best experience.

 

Next, we will present a general description of both services, this for to determine what your best alternative is, considering different aspects such as safety, comfort, and economy, especially when you have just arrived in the city for vacations or business trips.

 

Taxi

 

This is the most common alternative that first-time travelers take when arriving in Los Cabos, and is that in general it is the most accessible when you have not carried out the adequate planning of the travel from the moment you get off the plane; and it is that you only have to leave the Terminal to realize that many vehicles with their respective drivers offering rides to all tourists leaving the airport, some even yelling that they offer free rides (which is a scam).

 

 Of course, it is tempting to take one of these services in a hurry, however, we guarantee that it is not the most appropriate option, especially if you expect this trip to Los Cabos to be full of comfort and safety. The reasons why we state this are as follows:

 

They are not safe

 

Most of the vehicles that offer public taxi services have been traveling hundreds of kilometers around the city and its nearby areas for several years, this means that the internal parts of the engine are deteriorated, causing the probability of it to break down. midway is extensive, including starting failures, brake problems or even a car accident that affects your integrity, your companions, or belongings.

 

It is common for some of these vehicles to filter the gases emitted inside the vehicle, causing passengers to suffer from dizziness and in general affecting the first impression of the trip.

 

On the other hand, these vehicles are often the target of various robbers, since their anti-theft security system is known to be not very efficient, and they transport tourists who bring high-value belongings and large amounts of cash. esc

 

Little space

 

Most taxis are designed to carry a maximum of four people and therefore have limited luggage storage space, which makes finding an appropriate vehicle to take you from the airport to your destination difficult if you have multiple suitcases or goes in the company of a group of up to 16 individuals. Similarly, if you manage to find a taxi according to your needs, it is most likely that it is already separated or that the cost of its service is too much compared to the rate blog caps usual on the market.

 

This will force you to purchase more than one service or, failing that, be too crowded between the other passengers and their respective belongings, which, again, is not a rewarding experience for your companions, something essential in very specific cases such as when you make a business trip in the company of its partners or investors.

 

Economy

 

Although most taxi companies have rates that are already established by law and that are continually being supervised, it is clear that these are not the cheapest if you think about the journey beyond the airport, that is, suppose that upon arrival to Los Cabos International Airport requires going to the hotel, but there you will only leave your bags and go out with your companions to a restaurant, a tourist destination or an important meeting.

 

In any of the cases, you will have inconveniences so that the same transport service takes you to all the places you want, so you have to wait for another taxi that is ready to take you to your destination. This will generate, at the end of the trip, many more expenses in journeys than you had planned.
