Affordable VIP Private Transportation- “ELEVATE YOUR JOURNEY”
Cabo airport can feel like a maze. This private service pairs airport pickup with bilingual drivers, cold drinks, and door-to-door transport, making arrival much easier than negotiating a taxi queue. I like the free water, soda, beer, and optional alcohol, and I like that drivers such as Luis, Pablo, Jesus, Ceaser, and Jose have helped with restaurant, grocery, and activity advice.
The service also covers grocery runs, food, beverages, and pharmacy deliveries, which is useful for villas and longer stays. My main caution is that the price is each way, not round trip, and airport coordination has not always been flawless. One passenger waited about 30 minutes for a missing driver, while another had a delayed flight and received no response.
Key points to know before booking

- Airport pickup uses Umbrella #10: After customs, pass through the glass doors and continue to the arrivals area. Your driver should hold a sign with your name and Baja Sur VIP information.
- The $145 rate covers your whole group: Up to 11 people can ride together, making the cost more attractive for families and friend groups than for solo passengers.
- Cold refreshments come with every service: Expect bottled water, soda, beer, or nonalcoholic drinks. Premium beverage choices require an additional request.
- Every booking is one way: A ride from the airport to your resort and a return ride to the airport require separate bookings.
- The service can cover more than airport transfers: Grocery, food, beverage, and pharmaceutical deliveries are available, along with regular private transport.
- Communication matters: Send accurate flight and phone details, watch for arrival messages, and call promptly if you cannot find the driver.
What Baja Sur VIP is really selling

This is not a sightseeing tour with scheduled stops. It is a private transportation service designed around your group, your pickup point, and your destination in Cabo San Lucas or San José del Cabo.
The advertised duration ranges from one hour to a full day because the service can be used for a simple airport transfer, a longer private ride, or transportation arranged around errands and vacation plans. You are not placed with strangers, and the vehicle is air-conditioned with private transport included.
The strongest part of the offer is convenience. You can be met at the airport, taken directly to a hotel, resort, or villa, and supplied with a cold drink before the vacation has properly begun. For a family with luggage, or a group of friends splitting the cost, that can be worth far more than simply finding the cheapest ride outside the terminal.
The company also presents itself as available 24 hours a day. That matters in Cabo, where flights can arrive late, change times, or land after a long connection. Still, availability does not remove the need for clear communication. A delayed flight caused one passenger to be treated as a no-show, while another delayed group received quick replacement help after calling.

Meeting your driver at Los Cabos Airport

The stated meeting point is Umbrella #10 in the arrivals area. After you collect your bags and clear customs, go through the glass doors and continue toward the umbrella area. The driver should be holding a sign with your name and the Baja Sur VIP company details.
There is an important airport wrinkle here. The corridor after customs includes timeshare and sales staff. You do not have to stop for a presentation or discussion. Keep moving toward the designated meeting point unless you specifically want that information.
You should receive full pickup details by text at the phone number on the booking. Keep that phone active, and make sure the company has the right number before departure. Airport arrivals can be crowded, and one passenger was unable to find the driver after waiting around 30 minutes in the heat.
Another useful tip comes from a passenger who was told to check Umbrellas #3 and #4 as well as #10. The official instruction is Umbrella #10, but if you do not see your name quickly, check nearby umbrellas and call rather than wandering around. Cabo airport has many drivers outside the doors, so a clear sign and prompt communication matter.
The ride from the airport to your resort
Once you meet the chauffeur, the basic ride is simple. You load your luggage, settle into a climate-controlled vehicle, and head to the hotel, resort, villa, or other destination you supplied.
Vehicles are described as clean and new, but do not assume a particular color or model. One disappointed passenger expected a black truck because of the promotional image and was collected in a white vehicle instead. The company says it operates more than 25 vehicles in different colors, so if the vehicle type matters to you, ask before booking and get the answer in writing.
The service includes refreshments upon arrival. Water is specifically included, along with soda, beer, and either alcoholic or nonalcoholic drinks. Premium beverage selections can be arranged on request. If you are traveling with children, or simply do not drink, the nonalcoholic choices make the perk useful rather than decorative.
The driver may also offer a stop for groceries or supplies. Pablo, for example, helped one group with a Costco visit before continuing to the resort. That can be especially handy if you are staying in a villa or condominium with a kitchen.
The Costco option carries a $20 additional charge for bulk shopping. The listed price also excludes tips, which are optional but appropriate when the driver is punctual, helpful, and safe.
Helpful local advice from the chauffeurs

The drivers do more than point the vehicle toward your hotel. Several have been praised for offering restaurant, grocery store, tour, and activity suggestions.
Luis was described as friendly, informative, and especially useful for restaurant and grocery advice. Jesus, also known by the nickname Obama, gave one couple information about what they were seeing along the way. Jose kept a group informed by text and helped create a friendly arrival.
This kind of local contact is valuable on a first visit. You may want a quick answer about where to buy supplies, which restaurants are close to your resort, or what activities are worth considering. The advice is informal rather than a formal guided tour, so treat it as a starting point and ask specific questions.
I would also use the first ride to confirm the return plan. If you are booking airport transport for both directions, verify the pickup time, location, and phone contact before the driver leaves. That simple step can prevent confusion later.

Grocery runs, deliveries, and longer bookings

The service is broader than a standard airport car. Baja Sur VIP also lists grocery, food, beverage, and pharmaceutical deliveries. That could help if you arrive late, are staying in a villa, or need supplies without spending your first afternoon in a store.
The available booking length ranges from about one hour to a full day. The information does not provide a fixed hourly itinerary, so you should ask for a specific quote and schedule if you need the vehicle beyond a direct transfer.
The Costco run has a stated extra fee of $20. Other delivery or shopping costs are not detailed, so confirm them in advance. Ask what is included in the transportation price, what you must pay for purchased goods, and whether any additional waiting or shopping charges apply.
The group limit is up to 11 people. That makes the service especially practical for a large family, wedding group, or circle of friends arriving together. With the $145 price divided among 11 people, the per-person cost can be reasonable. For one or two people, the same flat group price is harder to justify unless you place a high value on privacy, refreshments, and a direct ride.
The free photo service

A notable extra is the company’s free proprietary photography service. The promise is simple: the driver can help preserve vacation moments during the service.
The details are not specific enough to assume a formal photoshoot, a set number of images, or professional editing. I would ask how the service works before booking if photography is important to you. Still, it is an unusual addition to an airport transfer and may appeal to families or groups who want a few shared pictures right at the beginning of the trip.
Price, group value, and what is not included

The listed price is $145 per group, with up to 11 people included. All fees and taxes are included, and the vehicle, private transport, air conditioning, and refreshments are part of the service.
The crucial catch is direction. Every transport is one way. A ride from Los Cabos Airport to Cabo San Lucas is one booking. The return from your resort to the airport requires another booking, unless you arrange otherwise directly with the company.
The wording has confused at least one passenger, partly because a round-trip flight itinerary can appear during booking. Do not assume that entering both flight details creates a return transfer. Check the total cost for both directions before paying.
Tips are not included. They are optional, but a gratuity is reasonable for a driver who handles luggage, waits through a difficult arrival, provides useful advice, or manages a special stop.
The free cancellation policy allows a full refund when you cancel at least 24 hours before the local start time. Changes made within 24 hours are not accepted, and cancellations inside that window are not refunded.
What the 4.8 rating tells you

The service has a 4.8 rating from 35 reviews and is recommended by 94 percent of customers. The most consistent praise centers on three things: friendly drivers, frequent communication, and a clean, comfortable vehicle.
Pablo, Luis, Jesus, Ceaser, and Jose are all named positively in individual accounts. Passengers describe drivers waiting at arrival, providing drinks, driving safely, and offering useful Cabo advice. One family also received quick assistance after a flight cancellation and delays.
The weak points are specific rather than widespread, but they matter. One airport pickup became a 30-minute wait with no driver in sight. Another booking failed after a flight delay, and the passenger requested a refund. The company accepted responsibility and issued a full refund in that case.
These incidents suggest a practical rule: do not leave the airport or hire another car without first calling the company. If something goes wrong, direct contact has helped resolve delayed pickups. At the same time, if you need absolute certainty after a long international flight, you should compare this service with a provider that offers a more formal flight-monitoring system.
Who should book this private transfer
I would consider Baja Sur VIP a good fit for:
- Families carrying several bags
- Groups of friends who can divide the $145 fare
- People staying in villas or resorts outside the immediate airport area
- Visitors who want grocery or Costco help
- Passengers who value cold drinks and a private vehicle
- Anyone who wants local suggestions during the ride
- Groups needing service at unusual hours
It is less compelling for a solo passenger or couple focused only on the lowest price. It may also frustrate you if you need a guaranteed vehicle color, exact model, or perfect airport coordination without making a follow-up call.
Service animals are allowed, and booster seats or pet accommodations can be requested. The information does not promise that these are automatically supplied, so ask before arrival.
Should you book Baja Sur VIP?
I would book it for a larger group that wants a private ride, refreshments, and some human help after landing. The flat group rate can be sensible, and the drivers have earned strong praise for friendliness, punctuality, safety, and local advice.
I would book with two checks in place: confirm that the price is for one direction only, and save the company contact information before flying. At the airport, head straight to Umbrella #10, look for your name, and call quickly if the driver is not visible.
This is a useful, friendly transport service with genuine extras, not a flawless luxury operation. If you value comfort and personal attention more than the rock-bottom fare, it is worth considering. If your top priority is absolute airport precision, ask detailed questions about flight delays, vehicle type, and backup procedures before committing.
