twelveoaks Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 My wife and I need early morning transportation from La Reserva to tha Actinver parking lot and plan to use Miramontes as they have a reputation for reliability. Our trip is two weeks from now and I am concerned about calling them too early and possibly getting overlooked ( lost in the shuffle ). We thought we would call for a pick up about four days out and then call and confirm the day prior. Does this sound like a good plan or am I over thinking it ? If you have actually used them we would appreciate your opinion. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexy Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Yes, they're fine. Just used Francisco to take me to stores and wait, as we're without a car. Hourly rate: 150 p. He was very, very nice and very helpful. Lexy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oatsie Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Here is a reply that I posted last May for a similar question. It bears repeating: "Francisco & sons Miramintes 766-1142 A couple of days ago we used Francisco & Sons (actually the son, Luis) to take us to the Casa Grande hotel at the airport in preparation for an early morning flight the next morning. When paying him I mistakenly included a 100 CANADIAN dollar bill along with 3 - 100 peso notes. After being in our room for 15 minutes, Luis called from the lobby and explained what happened and returned the money to me. Needless t say, I would never have known. They are definitely the only airport transportation company that I will use from now on." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beverly111 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 We had Francisco take 6 of us to the Colima Volcano on Sunday. he was fabulous. Curteous, knowledgeable and very reasonable rate. we will all use their service again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kb9gzg Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Just used their service. I could not figure out how to use my new cellphone with ATT Passport, and Julio (cousin of Luis) phoned us while we were undergoing "treatment" by customs. When we finally emerged, there was Julio, name sign in hand, and all was well once again. Travel to Ajijc was expeditiously managed. We'll use them again!

Gilligan Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 They are the best, still use them after 5 years and they are the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artsnob Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 I have used Francisco for 25 years, their sons grew up in the business, all speak English, call now as they are very busy with regulars like me, they keep an appointment book, and are always reliable, When I quit driving a couple years ago, I gave them my Van, it is now one of the taxi they use to take people out of town...

windstar Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Make apt now but I always call the day before to remind them - just in case. They are wonderful but not infallible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wefferr Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 We have used them for 10 years to and from the airport. Excellent service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stymie Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 This December will make my 5th straight ride to and from the airport/Ajijic. Never the hint of a problem. side note: I enjoyed hearing about the Miramontes family reunion, when hoardes convene from all over the world.

virgogirl Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Do they take people to the border in Laredo to the Mexican Consulate? I don't want to drive my oldy truck up there and back. Good for around here, no more. Has anyone used them for that? I realize it wouldn't be cheap, but better than other options I would have right now. Not happening for a few months, but got a job and will be initiating the work visa in next couple months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
