2.QuickLlama: Door-to-door transfer from Lima Airport to Miraflores

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 163 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $5Best value

QuickLlama takes you from Jorge Chávez International Airport to a hotel or home in central Miraflores in a shared, air-conditioned vehicle. The ride averages one hour and costs $5.95 per person. You get WiFi, GPS tracking, passenger insurance, and flight monitoring, but pickup instructions and vehicle quality can vary.

“The instructions to meet the van was poor, it was based on the old Airport, they forgot to update me that Lima opened up a new airport 3 weeks before my travel date. I showed the instructions to several people at the airport and nobody could help. I ended up taking a taxi to my hotel. The shuttle people offered me a ride back to the airport in exchange, but I was not flying out of the same city. This is not an airport shuttle, they do not operate from the airport, you would be stranded!”
