Subject: Re: Mexico City: Taxi $50 airport to Zona Rosa? Posted on: Sat, 06 Dec 2003 13:54:58 EST

If you get your taxi at the airport through the booth by buying a ticket,
you will be very safge and sure of not being ripped off. The Hotel fare is
higher, because you're actually paying for both ways.

ALWAYS take taxis from Sitos (official taxi stands).

Enjoy,

Michael
