Montevideo → Pocitos: key facts

Pocitos from Montevideo Airport (MVD) by private transfer: €45 per car (1–3 people) or €65 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 18 km via Avenida Italia, roughly 25 min when traffic is light and 25–35 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the arrivals hall (Hall de Arribos) on the ground floor of the Carrasco passenger terminal, just after the exit from baggage claim and customs, holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Pocitos is the densely built seaside district of Montevideo around Playa de los Pocitos, roughly 18 km from the airport. The most direct route uses the Avenida de las Américas and then the Rambla República de México and Rambla O'Higgins along the coast, through Carrasco, Malvín and Buceo, with the river on the left almost all the way. On warm weekends and summer evenings the Rambla near Buceo and Pocitos fills with traffic heading to the beaches.

Most hotels and apartment rentals in Pocitos stand in the blocks between the Rambla and Avenida Brasil, close to the beach. Playa de los Pocitos curves west towards Punta Carretas and the Punta Carretas Shopping centre, while the Puertito del Buceo marina and the World Trade Center towers lie a short walk to the east. Streets are a regular grid with residential parking, so the car can usually stop right at the building entrance.

Public transport instead: COPSA (suburban line) bus 703 / 704 (Montevideo / Aeropuerto) from Aeropuerto de Carrasco to Montevideo. No line runs directly from the airport to Pocitos; the COPSA suburban lines 703/704 run to Montevideo, and Pocitos is then reached with a city bus.
