 Taxi's
are a versatile way to get around in the Costalegre. Whether
it's a short trip across town or a tour of the area, cab drivers
will get you there "fast". Mañana does not apply to Mexican taxi
drivers. At the taxi stands (Sitios), prices are fixed and
posted for outlining areas. Cab drivers rarely receive tips in
México because the cabs are not metered. You can hire a taxi
driver for a tourist guide of the area. Barter for the fare as
they are quite expensive. You will negotiate the best price if
you barter for tomorrow's trip. Be reasonable when bartering for
taxis' as fuel is quite expensive. Although very honest and
reliable is is wise to agree on a price before you get into a
taxi. For a return trip pay only half the fare in advance, and
the balance when they return to pick you up. Some cabs are
station wagons (Camionetas) that can carry four visitors and
their luggage. |
