Before You Land

  1. Pre-Book Transportation
    Reserve a private or shared shuttle in advance. Pre-booking ensures a driver will be waiting and helps you avoid taxi scams or overpriced last-minute rides.
  2. Keep Documents Handy
    Have your passport, customs forms, and hotel details easily accessible. This speeds up the immigration and customs process.
  3. Download Your Confirmation
    Cell service at the airport can be spotty. Save your transfer confirmation and driver’s contact info offline. For more information please visit cabo airport transfers

At the Airport

  1. Prepare for Immigration & Customs
    Expect a wait of 20–45 minutes depending on season and flight arrivals. Fill out any forms before landing to save time.
  2. Ignore the “Shark Tank”
    After customs, you’ll pass through a room full of aggressive timeshare salespeople. Politely say “No, gracias” and keep walking—they’re not your transportation providers.
  3. Meet Your Driver Outside
    Legitimate transfer companies wait outside the terminal, past the timeshare area. Look for a sign with your name or company logo.

During Your Transfer

  1. Confirm Your Ride
    Double-check the driver’s company and your reservation before getting into the vehicle.
  2. Ask About Stops
    Shared shuttles may drop off other passengers at different resorts. If you want direct service, book a private transfer.
  3. Enjoy the Ride
    The drive from Los Cabos Airport to Cabo San Lucas takes about 40–45 minutes; to San José del Cabo, about 20–25 minutes. Sit back, relax, and take in the ocean views.

Bonus Tips

  • Carry a little cash (USD or pesos) for tips or unexpected expenses.
  • If traveling with kids, request a car seat when booking.
  • For peace of mind, choose a company with 24/7 customer service and flight tracking.
