No one else is showing you their legal driver license to drive a taxi because most can’t, beause they don’t have one. Not the owner. Not the drivers. Not the apps. But I can. I’m fully transparent, and I back that up with documents.

Unlike many others, I’m proudly showing my official Peruvian taxi driver’s license, something most drivers, app services, or informal operators can’t do. Transparency and legality are the foundation of Gringo Taxis.

For over a decade, I’ve been providing safe, fully insured airport transportation in full compliance with Peru’s transport laws. When you ride with us, you’re choosing peace of mind from the moment you arrive.

Here’s a breakdown of my valid driver’s license, issued by the Ministry of Transport and translated for your clarity:

  • Nombre completo: Walter [Last Name]

  • Fecha de Expedición: Date when the license was first granted

  • Fecha de Revalidación: Most recent renewal date

  • Clase A III-C: Authorization to operate professional taxis, as well as larger commercial vehicles like buses and trucks

I keep this license up to date to ensure every trip meets legal standards and your expectations for professionalism.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Built For You

How do I book a ride with Gringo Taxis?

Booking is simple. Just use our secure online form to choose your pickup and drop-off location, select your vehicle type, and confirm. You’ll receive an instant confirmation email with everything you need, including where to meet your driver and our direct dispatch number.

How will I recognize my driver at the airport?

Your driver will be holding a sign with your name and waiting for you just outside customs in the arrivals area. Your confirmation email will have the exact location to meet the driver at the Lima Airport’s new terminal.

Yes – that’s our biggest difference and how we separate ourselves from the other offers you find online. All our drivers are fully licensed, background-checked, and legally authorized by the Peruvian Ministry of Transport. Vehicles are regularly inspected, insured, and maintained to the highest standards.

Do you offer flat rates or will the price change later?

We offer clear, flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees. What you see at checkout is exactly what you’ll pay. We include taxes, airport charges, and driver wait time up to 60 minutes. No surprise charges. No excuses.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

If you’ve added our Flight Tracking Add-On, we’ll monitor your arrival in real time and adjust your driver’s schedule accordingly, so they’ll be there when you land, even if your flight is delayed.

Didn’t add flight tracking? Don’t worry, we’ll still do our best to accommodate delays, but we may not be notified automatically. To avoid any wait-time charges or missed connections, we recommend adding Flight Tracking during booking.

Do I need local cash to pay the driver?

No. You can pay online in advance using your credit or debit card. That way you avoid ATM fees, currency confusion, or the stress of finding cash at the airport.

Do you offer child car seats or large vehicles?

Yes. We offer car seats and larger vehicles for families or groups. Just select vehicle during booking, and we’ll make sure everything is ready for you.

Can I book a return ride to the airport?

Absolutely. When you book your arrival, you can add a return trip at a discounted rate. You’ll get the same trusted service for your departure, with punctual pickup from your hotel or Airbnb.

Are your drivers bilingual?

Unlike other offers you will find online, we don’t BS you and tell you they all speak English, and then you find out you arrive you cannot communicate with the driver. While most of our drivers speak basic English and, due to licensing all van drivers speak Spanish. We also provide fully translated confirmation emails and are always available via WhatsApp for real-time support in English. You’re never on your own. 

Why should I choose Gringo Taxis over a ride app?

Unlike apps, we offer:

  • Fully legal and insured vehicles

  • Professional, background-checked drivers

  • Flat pricing with no surprises

  • Real support from a live person, not a bot

  • A service built specifically for first-time or nervous travelers to Peru
