Commuting to Hotel

Going from the Airport to Your Hotel in Boa Viagem Beach

Recommended Transport Options from Recife Airport (REC)

We recommend catching app-based (Uber and 99Pop) transportation to get to your hotel. They are safe, fast and low cost. Taxi is also possible, but usually they are more expensive than Uber or 99Pop and some drivers only accept cash. If you do opt for a taxi, compare prices with Uber to make sure you are not overcharged. Official taxi services offered in the airport are safe.
