New AUTHORIZED Taxi Rates!

The newly authorized public taxi rates are up. I don't have prices for Playa Blanca from Zihuatanejo or Ixtapa, and there are no official rates for Barra de Potosí or Troncones from either destination either, so if anyone can post what they pay for those destinations from Zihuatanejo Centro and Ixtapa Zona Comercial it'd be much appreciated.

The Ixtapa rates are BLATANT RIPOFFS. Zihuatanejo's aren't much better.

Welcome to one of the most expensive places in Mexico to use "public" transportation.

Local Taxi Rates for Zihuatanejo & Ixtapa

P.D. I wonder how long it will take my competition to copy my work? ;-)

Plagiarizing is unethical.

You cannot get taxis in Ixtapa at those rates.80 pesos minimum in town, 120 to Z Centro. Plus some of their new fees. I called to be picked up at my friends house, and he wanted 85mxp. What for , you ask. The phone dispatching fee! I have given up arguing over the extra 10 pesos. If they charge me the real rate I tip them 20p for their honesty.

The phone dispatch fee has always been 5 pesos. Don't tell me they raised that, too.

From what I have read in the past about taxi licences being a form of political patronage, your sentence might be too long.

Uber can't get here.

That's NOT the authorized rate. $390 is what was authorized by the state's public transportation authority.
