Lima Airport Transfers

Jorge Chávez International is Peru's main airport, in Callao on the north-west edge of Lima, and since 1 June 2025 every passenger flight has used its new terminal. Most visitors are heading south to the clifftop districts on the Pacific, about 40 minutes away along the Costa Verde coast road.

We run fixed-price transfers from arrivals to Miraflores, and quote any other address in the city: Barranco, San Isidro, the historic centre and La Punta in Callao. For longer trips we drive to Pachacamac, the beaches south of Lima and Paracas. You know your driver's name and number before you land, which matters at an airport where the UK Foreign Office warns about fake taxi drivers.

Since June 2025 all flights use the new passenger terminal on the west side of the airfield. International and domestic arrivals come out into separate halls, each with official taxi counters. After immigration, baggage reclaim and customs, your driver waits for you in the arrivals hall with a sign showing your name. Walk past anyone else who offers a taxi or a tour. If you can't see your driver, stay inside and call or message the number we sent you.

Passengers who change planes at Jorge Chávez without entering Peru pay a transfer airport fee, the TUUA de transferencia. The airport encourages paying it online before you arrive to avoid delays. If you are leaving the airport for a night in Miraflores before an onward flight, book the ride back at the same time and we will time it around check-in: the airport operator advises arriving at least three hours before an international flight and two hours before a domestic one.
