Uber update in Cabo

Yes, Uber is undoubtedly alive and kicking in Cabo. It’s getting more and more popular with locals and tourists alike. And it’s a whole lot cheaper than taxis. All good, you might think. But actually, it’s not that simple…

Although Uber is already operating on a fairly large scale in Cabo, strictly speaking it is not yet fully legal (a state-wide transport law still has to be passed). The state governor is in support of Uber, arguing that it will improve transport services throughout BCS. And give people more choice. But, not surprisingly, there has been a lot of resistance from taxi drivers, transport unions and some local politicians.

Consequently, there are some restricted areas for Uber - like the airport or hotel pick up zones. And you may get stopped by traffic inspectors if you choose to use uber. So, it’s all a bit of a gamble at the moment…

And what do we say? Well, the choice is yours. To be 100% safe - take a regulation taxi. To save a bit of cash - take a chance and use an Uber. But for the safest bet - just walk. Los Milagros Hotel has the perfect location. Right in the heart of downtown Cabo where you can walk everywhere in just a few minutes. Book your room now - from $70-$120 incl taxes.
