Taxis
Taxi's from the airport are always more expensive because of an airport license monopoly. Smart Travel Tip: Try to be picked up by a hotel van or a friend or you can walk to the airport exit and get a regular taxi or 'collectivo'- small shuttle pickup trucks/vans that cost less. Regular taxis are un-metered so it's best to discuss and agree on a price at the beginning but most trips in Puerto Escondido should only cost between 35 & 50 pesos.
