Rental Car
* Pulmonia: An open-air taxi made from a souped-up golf cart. They are all custom and differ in size and features, but all usually have music blasting from them at all times. They ride up and down the Malecon and are very easy to flag down. You’ll see one every few seconds. The price differs for each Pulmonia driver, but here are some rough estimates: Let’s say you want to travel from the Malecon in centro to the Golden Zone, expect to pay about $150 pesos. ($10 CAD / $8 USD) If you want to hire one for an hour, you’ll likely be quoted anywhere from $300 to $500 pesos for the hour. ($20-35 CAD / $16/27 USD) * Aurigas : A red 2WD truck fitted with a bench and a canopy in the bed of the truck that can take 8-10 people around at a time. Mazatlán is big on domestic tourism and Mexican nationals usually visit with lots of their family members. The aurigas are a great way to be able to travel around town with large groups of people, without having to grab 3 separate taxis. From Cerritos (north of the city) down to Plaza Machado (in centro historico) fully loaded with 8 people, you can get a rate as low as $250 pesos one way. Again, pricing is negotiable and based on each individual aurigas driver. ($17 CAD / $13 USD) To hire for the hour, you’ll find rates between $350-$500 pesos. ($24-$34 CAD / $18-$26 USD) * Ride Share: Currently in Mazatlan they only use UberX (which is the budget option) and they don’t have options for Uber Select or Uber Black, etc. The cars are usually newer and clean, as Uber has more strict rules than some of the other ride share programs. It’s cheap, it’s easy, and it uses the exact same app and payment system you already have set up on your phone. Cerritos Beach to Centro (about 30 min ride) $100 pesos ($7 CAD / $5 USD) Golden Zone to Centro (about 15/20 min ride) $65 pesos ($4.50 CAD / $3.25 USD) Shorter trips to Walmart, Malls, Groceries (about 10/15 min ride) $30-$50 pesos (30 pesos = $2 CAD / $1.50 USD)
