Cruzin Terri Posted November 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 24, 2014 We are flying from Buenos Aires to Santiago after our cruise and staying for a few days before flying home. Looking for a reputable car service to pick us up at the airport to transfer to the hotel. Staying at the Santiago Marriott. Would be happy for any suggestions. Thanks, Terri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkgourmet Posted November 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted November 24, 2014 why not just hop in a taxi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamomo Posted November 25, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 25, 2014 You might consider asking your hotel to arrange for a car service to pick you up and transport you to the hotel. That's what we did when we flew into Santiago and and traveled to Valpariso to spend a pre-cruise night at a boutique hotel. Our driver was waiting with a sign as we came into the main part of the airport, spoke good English, and was quite personable. We opted for that arrangement rather than taking a taxi or another form if public transportation in a city we didn't know much about, and were very pleased with how it worked out.

flamomo Posted November 26, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Can you remember what it cost? Not the exact amount, but I seem to recall it being in the $75 USD range PER PERSON including a tip. We didn't feel that was excessive considering that we were being driven approximately 70 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4774Papa Posted November 26, 2014 #7 Share Posted November 26, 2014 check with SouthExcursions. We used them and it included tours of Valpo, Santiago and a stop at a winery in Casablanca. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzin Terri Posted November 26, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Thanks, but we just want transfers to a hotel in Santiago. We are disembarking in Buenos Aires after 37 days on the Grand South America. Spending a few days in Santiago before flying home. Don't want to go back to Valpo. I think I will get in touch with the hotel. Terri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamomo Posted November 27, 2014 #9 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Terri ..... JMO, but it can't hurt to ask. Worst case they will tell you that you can take a taxi. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkBearSF Posted December 3, 2014 #10 Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) We booked a van (we're 4 pax with much luggage) from our hotel in Santiago to SCL from "Go Airport Taxi" Our cost was $75 for the van. (car is $49) http://www.goairporttaxi.cl/en We're also using them for transportation from EZE to our hotel in BA.
