Playa Larga taxis

Oh don't be so dramatic. People aren't going to stop coming to Zihua because one taxi driver tries to get an extra 50 pesos out of someone. Most of the taxi drivers there are fair and honest, and an isolated incident isn't an overall reflection of destination and it's taxi drivers.

Hola
This was not an isolated incident. Last year the same larga taxis blocked the road as we tried to leave and gave our driver a warning before allowing us to leave. Since the hotel routinely calls outside taxis when none are available locally we didn't think it was such a big deal.

Right you are, amigo. Taxis unions extorting riders using taxis from competing unions is an old unresolved problem here that has indeed scared off hundreds of tourists who swore they would never return. Catlover hasn't a friggin clue what they're talking about. Zihuatanejo is not a community of retirees and Wall Street players.
