Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Taxis

Official, licensed airport taxis are the safest option, with pre-paid, fixed rates available at counters inside the arrivals hall. Ride-sharing services like Uber and Cabify also operate, though you may need to meet your driver just outside the main airport area. For unofficial taxis hailed outside, always agree on the fare before starting your trip.

Rental Cars

Several international and local car rental agencies, including Hertz, Avis, and Budget, have desks within the arrivals terminal. While a rental car is ideal for exploring the Sacred Valley and surrounding regions, it is not recommended for navigating the narrow, congested, and one-way streets of Cusco's historic center.

Public Transportation

The most economical option is to use local public buses, known as 'combis'. These do not stop directly at the terminal; you must walk a short distance to the main road (Avenida Velasco Astete) to catch one. This option can be challenging for visitors with luggage due to crowding and unclear routes.
