At Cabo Transfers, our primary concern is always for your comfort, convenience, and safety. We remain the most competitively priced top quality transfer provider in the area. We have renewed our vehicle fleet, implemented additional driver training and certification programs, and taken maintenance in-house to give us complete quality control. We have enhanced insurance coverage to $8 million USD per incident, added staff at the saturated Cabo Airport, and increased use of toll roads, cutting travel time by an average of 30 minutes in each direction.

We have done all of this in the face of significantly increased costs for gasoline, imported parts and staff benefits (mandated by government). We have had no alternative but to increase our transfer prices in order to maintain the quality and safety you expect of us.

For those customers looking for a lower-priced alternative, we have maintained our shared shuttle services at 2022 levels.

Thank you for understanding, and for your continued loyalty and patronage.

If you have a question or requirement that has not been addressed in our Q&A, please contact us.
