How to successfully make phone calls in Mexico.

You might need to know how to make a phone call while you are here in México. You may want to contact one of the business from your vouchers to arrange reservations or have questions. You may also wish to contact us to acquire more vouchers or ask questions. Here are some quick tips that will help you make successful phone calls, to and within Mexico.




Calling to Land Lines in México from Another Country:
If you are calling a Mexican city from abroad, first dial the international access code (011 if you're calling from the U.S.), followed by México's country wide code (52),the appropriate area code (624 for Cabo San Lucas & San José) and the local subscriber number. e.g. For an international call to The Cabo Store's land line, dial 011-52-624-172-0205.

Remember - If you are having a hard time connecting, dial 00 for an international operator.

Calling to Land Lines within México:
For domestic long-distance calls, you must dial 01 before dialing the area code and subscriber number. e.g. For a call from San José to La Paz, dial 01-612-XXX-XXXX.

For local calls, simply dial the phone number. e.g. XXX-XXXX.




Calling to Cell Phones in México:
Calling a México cell phone is just a little trickier than calling a land line. Mexican cellular phones operate on the Calling Party Pays (CPP) system; whoever initiates a call pays for it!

When calling within the same area code use the prefix 044. e.g. 044-624-XXX-XXXX.

If you are calling a cell phone in a Mexican area code different from your own, you need to include the prefix 045. e.g. For a call from Guadalajara to a Cabo mobile phone, dial 045-624-XXX-XXXX.


Baja's main area codes:
624 - Buena Vista, Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo.
612 - La Paz and Todos Santos.

Happy Calling!
