Round Trip Transfers from Cabo Airport
A round trip on these routes is two reserved legs on one itinerary: SJD to your town, then back to SJD for departure. You are not paying per person on either leg.
Booking both directions together is the usual choice. The return pickup is set from your outbound flight and hotel checkout, not from a shared-van timetable that may already have left by mid-afternoon.
One-way is available too — arrival only, or La Paz / Todos Santos / Los Barriles back to Cabo airport. Use the quote tool for the vehicle rate on the dates you need.
Cabo Airport to Todos Santos
Todos Santos is about 75 minutes north of SJD on Highway 19, on the Pacific side, with the Sierra de la Laguna behind the town. It is a Pueblo Magico and a UNESCO Creative City — galleries, boutique hotels and surf, not a corridor resort strip.
El Pescadero sits just south of town for surf and restaurants. Playa Cerritos is the surf beach on that same stretch. We drop at hotels, casitas and vacation rentals. See Todos Santos airport transportation and Cerritos Beach airport transportation for property-level pages.
Shared vans on this route often run a fixed last departure in the afternoon, wait at the airport until the van fills, and limit bags. A private transfer leaves when you clear customs and goes to your door.
Cabo Airport to La Paz
La Paz is the capital of Baja California Sur. From SJD there are two road options. Highway 1 via Los Barriles and El Triunfo is about 200 km and 2.5 hours. Highway 19 via Todos Santos is 214-220 km and a bit slower. Tell us if you want a stop in Todos Santos — that is the Highway 19 drive.
Guests come for the Malecon, Playa Balandra, whale shark season, and the Pichilingue boats to Espiritu Santo. Those boats leave around 9 AM, so an SJD pickup for a same-day boat has to be early. Put the boat time in your notes.
We do Cabo airport to La Paz transportation and the return to SJD. Property page: La Paz airport transportation.
Cabo Airport to Los Barriles and the East Cape
Los Barriles is about 65 miles (105 km) north of SJD on Highway 1 — roughly 1.5 hours. It is 40 miles north of San Jose del Cabo and 65 miles south of La Paz. The wider East Cape run is 1.5 to 2 hours from SJD.
This coast is sportfishing water and, in season, kitesurf and windsurf. La Ventana sits nearby for kite. Costa Palmas is on this coast, including Four Seasons Costa Palmas and Amanvari. Cabo Pulmo is the marine park at the south end of the East Cape.
Dirt-road casitas and gated resorts both show up on this route. Send the pin or hotel name when you book. Related pages: East Cape airport transportation, Costa Palmas airport transportation and Cabo Pulmo airport transportation.
Traveling with Fishing, Surf or Kite Gear
East Cape and Todos Santos trips often include rods, surfboards or kites. Shared vans on these routes cap bags and usually refuse oversized gear.
We take the gear when you say so at booking. That is how we pick an SUV or a van with room, instead of showing up with a packed Suburban and no board space. List rod tubes, board count and kite bags in the notes. Do not assume a last-minute add at the curb.
