BJX (Leon) - SMA (San Miguel) Shuttle Choice?

Can't Post | Private Reply

I see there are now two shuttles for getting from BJX (Leon) to SMA (San Miguel de Allende). Does anyone have a recommendation for which might be better to use? I had planned to book Viajes San Miguel, but now I see BahioGoShuttle (SuperShuttle) looks good too...

I can't give you a recommendation between the two, but....

I am in SMA and just walked into the office of BajioGoShuttle and spoke with the lady. At the airport they will have a person with your name on a sign waiting for you as you exit customs; this person will escort you to the car area where your bilingual driver will take you to your specific destination in San Miguel. You will be the only rider unless another person is coming in at the same time. $28 door-to-door. They say allow 90 minutes for the trip from BJX to SMA. Reservations are required as it is mainly a one-on-one service.

Someone posted a negative comment about BajioGoShuttle on a local forum and for the next week! local folks were coming to their rescue with posts of support. I plan on using them in a couple of months based on their service and price.

Thank you for the reply Rick. On the advice of the place I am staying I went ahead and booked Viajes - I was told they know where the place is (a small place in an obscure location, and call-ahead required enroute) and bring in most of their guests. I'll post my experience, next time maybe try Bajio. Other feedback has been about evenly divided. Viajes fare is quoted $56 RT and $30 one way.
