Transcabo

Recommended Posts

I emailed Transcabo to set up transporation for my guests from the airport to Dreams. But I got an email back from a destination management company, Incentives Management, saying that they are a part of the Transcabo group.

 

For the girls that have and are working w/ Transcabo, did you go through this other company? I'm just wondering if it's going to be more expensive b/c I have to work through a middleman.

 

FYI, I spoke to Maye regarding transportation for my guests, and she quoted me $31/p. I'm just trying to find something cheaper.

The same thing happened to me with the reply email.

Basically, unless you have 16+ people arriving all at the same time, there is no economic benefit to reserving as a group. For anything less, if you are not paying for your guests, the easiest thing is to have them book directly online.

Personally, I'm not paying, but I have asked guests for their arrival info and will help coordinate for those who arrive at the same times to share private transit so they don't have to do a shuttle. But I will ask 1 person from the group to be the "leader" and do the online reservation and they can sort it out from there. So far, people are happy about this bc they can have more direct transit without having to pay the private price (assuming I can put together groups of 5 or more).

Good point. I'll take this into consideration.

Okay, good to know. Hmmm, this might be easier for them to book their hotel through you and at the same time arrange for transportation.

BTW, how much do you think air would be? Most of our guests will be flying out of SFO, Oakland, and San Diego. I want to give them a rough est. on the pricing for flights on our website and newsletter.

well, air rates for nov. 2008 are not out yet...it would be cheaper for your guests to fly out of sfo than oakland and this year i was getting flights out of sfo in the $320-400 range usually.

from san diego it was around $400-450 but if they are close to LAX it would be cheaper from there.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
