Your trip will be more enjoyable if you take advantage of being mobile. There are rental car companies at the airport, but you will get better rates if you plan ahead. If you choose not to rent a car, you can take a taxi to/from the airport, or we can get you a certified driver. Keep in mind however, there is limited taxi service in our area. We recommend Cactus Rent a Car at the Los CabosAirport. They charge you what they say they will charge you. They include the max liability of $350,000 or $4 million pesos of liability, they also accept your credit card insurance coverage for damages.
