Hi. Looking for advice for transportation from the Mazatlan Airport to the Inn at Mazatlan on Dec. 4th 2017. 5 passengers, King David Tours wants $100.00 US. for the five of us. $20.00 each. I'm sure there is a far cheaper way to get to our hotel. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou.

We've found King David to be the best, most reliable transport available there. The airport is about 24Km out from the hotel zone, so taxis will be much more expensive. Also. I think you'll find that the King David price is for round trip. Check with the concierge. The Inn may have an arrangement for transport.

Thanks Jim, I will check it out to see if actually the price is for a round trip. Greatly appreciated.

Just agree to attend a timeshare presentation with the rep in the airport. You can negotiate for all kinds of cash and prizes, including free round-trip transportation to your hotel.

Sorry I missed this when it was fresh, but it is EXACTLY what you DO NOT want to do. Walk straight through the gauntlet of body snatchers, and meet the nice guys from King David near the lobby bar. They will give you directions and time to visit the BANK ATMs if you want to get some safe, low cost pesos.

You are correct Jim. The price is $20.00 per person roundtrip.
Thank You
We will be using them again for our January stay. They are also the go-to for tours and excursions in the area.
