In Mazatlan we have a very unique type of transportation. These vehicles are like Golf carts and they are on the street taking people all around the city. They are called Pulmonias which in english would be Pneumonia. These open air carts originally were 3 wheel and were imported from the US. After the years, the peso had a devaluation and the dollar went up high, so they decided to make them in Mazatlan.They have a VW motor.
You will see other taxis, which are very similar but we call them Safaris. They are almost the same, but they have doors and the Pulmonias, have no doors.
Just wave one down if you need one. But remember, always have an agreement before you get into any taxi in Mazatlan because they do not have a meter.

Have fun and enjoy Mazatlan!
