Welcome to Los Cabos! Whether you’re here for a luxurious vacation, a thrilling adventure, or considering making this paradise your new home, your journey begins the moment you land at Los Cabos International Airport (SJD). Located just a short drive from both Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo, SJD offers several convenient options to get you to your final destination.
1. Pre-Booked Private Shuttle or Car Service
For a seamless and stress-free arrival, booking a private shuttle or car service in advance is often the best choice.
- Convenience: Your driver will be waiting for you upon arrival, helping with your luggage and taking you directly to your hotel or rental property. No waiting in lines!
- Comfort: Enjoy a comfortable, air-conditioned ride, often in a newer vehicle.
- Reliability: Reputable companies ensure timely pickups and drop-offs.
- Great for Groups: If you’re traveling with family or friends, a private van can be a cost-effective and comfortable option.
2. Shared Shuttles
Shared shuttle services offer a more budget-friendly alternative if you don’t mind sharing your ride with other travelers.
- Cost-Effective: This is generally cheaper than a private transfer, as you split the cost with other passengers heading in the same direction.
- Efficiency: Shuttles typically depart once they’re full or at scheduled times.
- Designated Drop-Offs: They will take you directly to your hotel or designated drop-off point.
3. Rental Cars
If you plan on exploring Los Cabos extensively and at your own pace, renting a car is an excellent option.
- Flexibility: Gives you the freedom to discover hidden beaches, visit charming towns like Todos Santos, or venture to remote golf courses.
- On-Site Pick-Up: Most major car rental agencies have counters directly at SJD airport or offer shuttle services to nearby rental lots.
- Navigation: We recommend downloading offline maps or using a GPS, as cell service can be spotty in some remote areas.
4. Taxis and Ride-Sharing Services
Taxis are readily available just outside the airport terminal, offering a direct and convenient way to your destination.
- Availability: You’ll find plenty of taxis, especially during peak hours.
- Negotiate Fares: It’s often advisable to agree on the fare with the driver before starting your journey, as many do not use meters.
- Ride-Sharing (Uber/DiDi): While ride-sharing services like Uber and DiDi operate in Los Cabos, there can sometimes be restrictions on airport pickups directly from the arrivals terminal. You might need to walk a short distance to a designated pickup zone. Check the app for the latest regulations and pickup points.
5. Public Transportation
For the most budget-conscious travelers, public buses are an option, though they are less direct and can be more time-consuming.
- Affordable: This is the cheapest way to travel.
- Limited Routes: Buses primarily serve local communities and main roads, so you might need a transfer or a short taxi ride from the bus stop to your final destination.
- Local Experience: Offers a glimpse into local life.
Which Option is Right for You?
- For maximum convenience and comfort: Private Shuttle/Car Service.
- For budget-conscious travelers: Shared Shuttle or Public Bus.
- For exploration and freedom: Rental Car.
- For quick, direct travel: Taxi or Ride-Sharing (with potential walk).
No matter how you choose to arrive, the beauty and allure of Los Cabos are waiting to welcome you.
