The UBER Taxis are ‘unmarked’ cars with Registered Drivers. In Mexico, knowing that your driver is Registered adds to your feeling of comfort and safety. I recommend that you download the UBER Mobile Phone App and sign up. TRANSPORT (TAXIS):Īlways negotiate and agree a price BEFORE getting into the Taxi.Īlways try and go to a Taxi Stand to catch a taxi. Try not to ‘flag down’ taxis on the street unless you have to (it is ‘flagged down’ taxis that contribute most to the ‘bad stories’ that you find on the internet). Often, you will find a Bus Terminal or Minivan Terminal within walking distance of a Ferry Terminal. Never accept transport from touts inside an Airline or Ferry Terminal.Īlways walk out of the Terminal to get better prices.
If you have any other sort of TT on you … they are just dead luggage. The only TTs that the Mexican banks will exchange are American Express … and, even then, you will have to go to quite a few banks before you find one that takes TTs. Always check the final price against other sites … not the starting price.įorget them.
However, it charges MORE than the 19% charged by those other sites … it can be over 25%! The final price can end up more expensive than the final price on other sites.

The payment engine expects your Credit Card details and address to match USA standards (such as a mandatory 5 digit ZIP Code in your address).
However, there are 2 problems with DESPEGAR: It often lists Hotels that are not listed on the English speaking search sites. And, it often lists the same hotels at lower rates than those other sites. It is in Spanish but Google Translate will convert that to English for you so that you can use it.

You are better off getting a cheaper room WITHOUT Cable TV but with GOOD WIFI.

You may be lucky and find 1 English speaking channel … this is, usually, the Golden Edge Movie Channel. Unless you speak good Spanish, this is of little use / value … all of the channels are in Spanish or ‘dubbed’. Many hotels offer Cable TV with up to 100 Channels. In Mexico, I recommend that (for short term Hostels & Hotels) you try BOOKING.COM and AGODA.COM. For weekly or monthly Holiday Rentals, look at TRIPADVISOR.COM. If you get on the internet and search hard across multiple hotel search sites you should be able to find a deal that discounts these rates down to MXP450 and MXP550 respectively. Regardless, expect to pay MXP600 online for a reasonable quality room. HOTELS: WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT TO PAY:Įxpect to pay MXP500 / night for a GRANDPAcking Double with fan and hot water ensuite. UBER Taxi: If the Taxi doesn’t give you an up-front fixed price quote, budget MXP5 for the ‘flagfall’ plus MXP6-7 / km. Taxi (rural): MXP5 for the ‘flagfall’ plus MXP5 / km. Taxi (urban): MXP10 for the ‘flagfall’ plus MXP10 / km. Tuk Tuk / Colectivo: MXP5 for the first km plus MXP1 / km.
Second Class Bus (between towns): MXP5 plus MXP1 / km. Local Bus (around town): MXP7 / trip (up to 10km). When you arrive in a strange country it is helpful to have some ‘ rules of thumb‘ to ensure that you don’t get over-charged. It was the same for me and Mexico is where I decided to start my Central American journey. Mexico is a starting point for many Central America backpackers due to its cheap flight connections.
