FAQs about your Riu Palace transportation
Is the transfer to Riu Palace private or shared?
It is 100% private. The vehicle is yours alone and goes straight from the airport to Riu Palace: no other passengers, no dropping people off at other hotels, no waiting for a van to fill up. That is why the ride takes as long as the road takes and not twice that.
Where do I meet my driver when I land in Los Cabos?
Right after you clear customs, outside the terminal, holding a sign with your name. From there you head straight to Riu Palace: no counters to find, no taxi line and no need to deal with the vendors who approach you at the exit. If you cannot spot the driver, your voucher has our 24/7 phone number and we connect you on the spot.
What if my flight to Los Cabos is delayed?
We track your flight in real time. If it lands early or late — even if your arrival at Riu Palace shifts by hours — the pickup time adjusts by itself and your driver waits at no extra cost. Nothing to report and nothing to rebook.
Do you serve Riu Palace at night or in the early morning?
Yes, service runs 24/7 and the rate is the same at any hour: there is no night surcharge. A flight landing at 2 AM has its driver waiting all the same.
How far in advance should I book my transfer to Riu Palace?
Ideally 24 to 48 hours ahead: with that margin we guarantee the vehicle you picked rather than whatever is left. Last-minute bookings to Riu Palace are usually possible — call us and we confirm in minutes — but in high season the larger vehicles go first.
Do you provide child seats for the transfer to Riu Palace?
Yes, and they are free. Request them when you book and tell us the ages: the driver fits them at the terminal before pulling away, not somewhere along the highway to Riu Palace. We send the seat that matches the child's age, not a generic booster.
Can we stop at a supermarket on the way to Riu Palace?
Yes. A quick stop at a supermarket or an OXXO on the way to Riu Palace can be arranged and does not change the price — it is a normal request for guests heading to a condo or a villa. Tell us when you book so we allow for it in the ride time.
Do you also do the return from Riu Palace to the airport?
Yes. Your driver picks you up at the Riu Palace lobby at the time we agree, worked out from the ride time plus the margin your airline requires, and we reconfirm it the day before. Booking round trip from the start costs less than two separate one-way rides.
Is the price to Riu Palace the same as the rest of Nuevo Vallarta Norte?
Yes. Rates are charged by zone, and Riu Palace is in the Nuevo Vallarta Norte area: it pays that zone's rate regardless of exactly where inside it the property sits. That is why the price above still applies if you end up switching to another hotel in Nuevo Vallarta Norte — just let us know so your driver has the right address.
Can I cancel or change my transfer to Riu Palace?
It depends on the rate you booked. Premium rate: cancel free up to 24 hours before your transfer and we refund the full amount. Economical rate: no refund. The full amount stays as open credit, with no expiry date, for whenever you come back. Includes one change of date or time, 48 hours in advance. Either way, send the request in writing, by email, with your reservation number.
