Cabo San Lucas Travel Forum

We will be one day on a cruise and will need transportation from Port to downtown and to the gold zone. How much should we expect to pay on a bus and a taxi, also are there Pulmonias there..How much should we pay. We want to pay a reasonable price but do not want to get ripped off either.

Well, you learn something new alomost every day! I had never heard the word "Pulmonia", so I looked it up in my Spanish dictionary and it defines it as 'pneumonia'; 'pulmonar' being LUNG...........so maybe you could enlighten me as to its usage in this context.

As to your questions about getting from a cruise ship in Cabo to downtown; once you reach the beach, it is not very far at all to the shopping district, so a taxi should not be too high; I certainly wouldn't spend time waiting for a bus, unless there is a special one for those disembarking. I would think on the ship you should be able to find out details of this procedure.
At present, the peso is running between 13-14/USdollar.

It is an open air taxi, sorta like a golf cart.

The taxi boats from the cruise ship come into the marina and you are right in the middle of town, you can walk to the stores. If you walk a couple of blocks away from the marina, as you probably know, you will most likely get better prices. There are many jewelry/gold stores in town and they will bargin alot because business is not good. There were a couple of shops a block from Cabo Wabo (out the front door by the tequila store then turn left.) They were on the next corner. I don't remember the name but they came down ALOT on the prices.
