The route to the Pacific Coast

The Barranca Larga–Ventanilla highway shortened the overland trip between Oaxaca City and Puerto Escondido dramatically compared with the older mountain route. The drive still crosses steep terrain, and weather or road work can affect the exact arrival time. The local operator checks practical conditions before departure and confirms the planned pickup time around your itinerary.

How it works

1. Submit the route and timing. Add the pickup address, date, approximate time, flight number when applicable, travelers and luggage.

2. Receive the confirmation. The team confirms availability, vehicle, fixed MXN fare and pickup details.

3. Travel directly to Puerto Escondido. Payment arrangements are provided outside the website; no card is charged when the request is sent.

When a private transfer makes sense

Choose the private transfer when you are traveling with two or more people and value door-to-door service, when you have surfboards or several bags, when children or older adults are traveling, or when your schedule is linked to a flight.

For a solo traveler with one backpack and a flexible schedule, the bus or a shared van can be the more economical choice.
