| Puerto Vallarta's Gustavo
Díaz Ordáz International Airport is about 4 miles
from the city and pretty close to most major resorts. It caters
to both domestic and international flights. Flights to Puerto
Vallarta are available from most major cities in U.S. and Canada.
Puerto Vallarta is also a hub to many other Mexican cities.
Please
note that additional info (prices, activities, etc) are found
to the right of this pages.
Transportation to and from the airport is by
taxi or combi bus. Tickets for these modes of transport need to
be purchased at small counters just outside the terminal. The
cost depends on your destination. Using these facilities can be
a little more expensive than, just walking out of the terminal
and hailing a taxi on the street. Make sure you negotiate the
cost to reach your destination before entering the taxi.
Bus
Bus stops can be found every block or two and
the buses run throughout the day. With a transfer or two you can
get anywhere within the city, however at certain bus stations
you can catch buses to remote destinations or other cities as
well.
Taxi
There are tons of taxis around town and you should
not have any problem finding one. The fares to several destinations
are posted in each taxi, the daily newspaper and most major hotels.
Negotiate the fare before you set off, this would avoid problems
later. |
