Jorge Chavez Airport is about 12 km from Miraflores and there is no rail connection, so every trip into the city means a car ride. Prices depend on your destination, the time of day, and which option you choose.

Other destinations
Only the transfer column is a price fixed before you travel. The airport publishes no fares for its authorised taxis — you get the price at the service counter in arrivals — and Uber and InDriver both price dynamically, quoting you in the app. There is no metered tariff or municipal rate in Lima to check any of it against, so we do not print sol figures we cannot stand behind.
All prices are per vehicle, not per person. A standard sedan fits 3 passengers with luggage.
What affects the price
Traffic is the biggest factor. During rush hours (7–9 AM, 5–8 PM), some drivers charge more and rideshare apps apply surge pricing. The difference can be 30–50% higher than off-peak.
Vehicle size matters if you are a group. A minivan to Miraflores costs more than a sedan for a pre-booked transfer — the price is quoted when you book.
Late night arrivals often mean fewer Uber drivers and slightly higher fares. Pre-booked transfers keep the same price regardless of the hour.
Hidden costs to watch for
There are no tolls on the airport-to-Miraflores route. Unofficial taxi touts may quote in USD and then apply a poor exchange rate — always confirm the currency before agreeing. The authorised taxi counter inside the terminal gives you a fixed price in soles with no surprises.
Bottom line
Budget EUR 15–25 for a comfortable, reliable pre-booked ride to Miraflores. If you are watching every sol, Uber or InDriver will usually be cheaper but adds some hassle at pickup — check the app quote against the counter price.
