Ground Transportation
Most of Oaxaca City is explored on foot. When traveling longer distances, we recommend taxis which are readily available and identifiable as maroon and white cars one can easily hail on the street. They should all be metered and only accept cash. Tipping 5%-10% is suggested. There are no Ubers or Lyfts in Oaxaca City but if you would like to hire a taxi or shuttle with a driver for an excursion, either we or your hotel can assist with that.
Only one company is permitted to operate pick up from OAX. Oaxaca Airport Transportation offers professional, reliable and affordable transfers on a one-way and round-trip basis between Oaxaca Airport, Oaxaca City and the entire coast of Oaxaca. Their kiosk is located inside the airport outside of the baggage claim. You can purchase your fare at the kiosk subject to availability or you can book ahead through this link. Those traveling in groups may want to book ahead to secure the particular option desired. Payment by any major credit card or cash is accepted and there are ATMs conveniently located in the vicinity near the kiosk.
