Booking a shuttle
- Book before you fly, not at the curb.
- Send your name, party size, airline, flight number and arrival time.
- Prices usually depend on the size of your party.
The road
- North on Highway 1, past Los Barriles and San Bartolo.
- Then the paved road over the mountains toward Los Planes.
- Two-lane, unlit and winding; cattle and goats wander on.
- Landing late? Take a shuttle, or sleep in San José del Cabo.
Wheels and the way home
- A common plan: a shuttle in, wheels delivered next morning.
- Morning flight home? Think about a last night in San José.
- An afternoon flight is easy: breakfast here, then a daylight drive.
