Along with Culiacan International Airport (CUL), Mazatl�n International Airport (MZT) is a major international airport serving the state of Sinaloa. It is a well-liked stopping point for travelers heading to western Mexico.

Mazatl�n is connected to Guadalajara (7 hours; 430 pesos one-way), Mexico City (16 hours; 1,000 pesos), Puerto Vallarta (8 hours; 380 pesos), and other locations within Mexico by first-class and luxury buses.

HOW TO GET AROUND

Taxi -
There are many eco-taxis (regular sedans) available in the city to transport one to wherever you need to go. The cost of a single ride varies based on where you'll need to go but is typically around 100 pesos.

Local Bus -
The Golden Zone and El Faro are just two of the popular attractions in Mazatl�n that are serviced by the city's transportation system. The cost of the fare is roughly 8 dollars. You should be aware that public buses aren't as tourist-friendly as other modes of transit, so it's best to speak some Spanish to get around.
