dano1948 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 Just came in again 1 week ago...500 Pesos to Chapala.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 About 50-60 pesos more to Ajijic as distance is further. Also, it seems to matter what TIME you need one. Last year I paid more ( evening arrival) than this year when I arrived around 3 pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did it from Ajijic to GDL Airport and am using an average between the 2 as a reference point for the actual fees. That amount comes to 530.5 pesos. Ajijic to Guadalajara International Airport taxi fare The estimated price is 802 MXN, confirm price with provider directly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voir dire Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 I use that website all the time. When I think the fare may be too low or too high, I reverse directions and, like Ibarra said, average the 2 for a more accurate price. Try finding a website that is completely accurate with ALL of its information. Can't! 802 pesos from Ajijic to Guadalajara airport 259 pesos from Guadalajara airport to Ajijic 1061 divided by 2 is 530.50. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Unless you're going to try and get an Uber at GDL airport, you have NO OPTION but to use their provided cabs so using any other website is a waste of time don't forget to tip the driver since he has to kick back a %age of each trip to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 imho, if there is cargo involved then you should tip. That includes luggage or groceries. IF I have to put the groceries in and take out the trunk (same for luggage) then I do NOT tip. I appreciate being helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1mex Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 We tip if luggage they handle. Carry on only no tip as we handle them ourselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not a Mexican and you can well afford to give a hard-working guy a little appreciation for "safe home". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not a Mexican and you can well afford to give a hard-working guy a little appreciation for "safe home". Tipping has become absolutly crazy. In some countries it is considered an insult. Tip screen on ccard terminals where no service is given. USA is the worst. Tipping is not based on what one can afford. It is based on the service received. In the case of Taxis in Mexico a tip is not normal no matter where you come from or how rich you are. If the cab driver goes out of his way than a small tip is ok, but not for doing his normal service. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
