Acapulco Driving School

I took my behind the wheel here and it was fantastic. With only 3 days to complete it. My instructor Mario was very nice and made me feel good and confident about my road test.

This place is absolutely great, with only taking two classes Luis Mario fully prepared me to take the drivers test the next day. Every one there was very nice, and I only paid $ 300. As to the previous review, Luis Mario is a great guy, every time we were on the road he gave me (and I’m sure others too) such high confidence, believing in us and knowing we’d pass the test. As for the «difficulty understanding his accent» me also being Spanish, had no problem understanding him as he would switch from English to Spanish constantly and one of my classmates who is white, and knows no spanish at all, that took the test the same day as me and passed with flying colors. In my eyes if you really want to stop being chauffeured by your parents/​guardian and start driving by yourself, suck up any pessimism you have and get your license here.

I still successfully got my license on the first try and I believe the instructor (Luis Mario) prepared me for the driving test. However, the instructor is very unprofessional and was often cursing on the phone in spanish while we were driving around. He is also homophobic and has an old-​school macho puerto rican attitude (he made it a point to say what he was– even beating his chest like a gorilla «Yo so Boricua!») Yeah whatever I don’t care what you are just teach me. He has an accent so it can be difficult to understand if you don’t speak spanish.
The driving school itself I don’t think is very flexible in hours– seeing they only have one instructor. They will reschedule your times if you call ahead though.
The price was reasonable at $ 300 for 3 lessons of 6hrs behind the wheel. They also expect you to pay upfront and there is no refunds so be sure they can accommodate your hours BEFORE handing them the money!
