Page "Acapulco" Paragraph 17

From the U. S., many airlines now fly to Juan N. Álvarez International Airport year-round.

While in the city, there are many buses and taxi services one can take to get from place to place, but most of the locals choose to walk to their destinations.

However, an important mode of transportation is the government subsidized ' Colectivo ' cab system.

These cabs cost 10 pesos per person to ride, but they are not private.

The driver will pick up more passengers as long as seats are available, and will transport them to their destination based on first come first served rules.

The colectivos each travel a designated area of the city, the three main ones being Costera, Colosio, Coloso, or a mixture of the three.

Coloso cabs mainly travel to old Acapulco.

Colosio cabs travel through most of the tourist area of Acapulco.

Costera cabs drive up and down the coast of Acapulco, which is where most of the hotels for visitors are, but also includes some of old Acapulco.

Where a driver will take you is partly up to his choice.

Some are willing to travel to the other designated areas, especially during slow periods of the day.
