We prearranged to have a taxi pick us up at the airport this time around. Usually we use a prepaid package from Toronto and that includes transportation to our hotel. But depending on where you are staying they might stop a few places along the way to other hotels using the same tours. Using our own taxi driver, Sebastián took us directly to our apartment plus a stop along the way to exchange money. Sebastián stopped at a money exchange booth with the best rate, and of course much better that we could get back home or at the airport. If it was not that we had prearranged to have our fridge full of food we most likely would have stopped and picked up a few groceries. And as long as you arrange it ahead of time there should be no problem. Sebastián actually asked us if we wanted to stop and pick up a few things. He emailed us where to meet him and had a sign with our names. Ones we passed customs we were on our way in less than 5 minutes, much, much faster than waiting for a group and much quicker than anything I have ever taken.
Again our driver was Sebastián and was very good and knowledgeable, however there are many available on TA at Rent.A.Car.Van.And.Driver.html But what I found most impressive about Sebastián is that he returned out email right away and at least within 24 hours. Sebastian's email address it is eskp_rsh@hotmail.com Have a great time in Aca as the locals refer to Acapulco.
Cheers

We paid 300 pesos or about $30.00 US from the airport to our apartment in the Las Americas area, but that is almost an hour from the airport. Whereas the hotel zone and the Diamante area are closer and are only like 15 to 30 minutes from the airport. It should not cost you more than about $200.00-250.00 pesos, or $20-25 US. Not to much different but the taxis have to pay for parking and a fee for going to the airport.
