Airport you will soon be arriving in the
beautiful Riviera Maya in Mexico in this
video we'll be showing you how to get
from the Cancun Airport to Tulum and all
the ground transportation options you
have this way you can pick the best
option for yourself and get right to
your vacation in Tulum so you can relax
so you're coming to Cancun Airport and
you want to know how is the best way to
get to your hotel well in this short
video we're going to tell you the five
ways which you can easily get
transportation from the penguin Airport
to where you need to go the first thing
we should mention about getting to Tulum
from the Cancun Airport is the distance
it is about a hundred and twenty
kilometers or will take about one hour
and a half so it is important to be
comfortable so you can sit back and
relax and get straight to the beach
let's now talk about the transportation
options you have the first one is
booking a private transportation to
anywhere you will need to go whether
it's a hotel or a rental now this is
what most people booked because it is
the most efficient way to get from the
Cancun Airport directly to where you
need to go these are just for your group
or your family and you can book a
roundtrip and get a discount this is
what the private transfers look like
from the Cancun Airport they're a
spacious fan and will give you more
space than a taxi also your driver will
meet you at the exit of the terminal and
take you to your van there are also
luxury private transfers available from
the airport and handicap bands also in
our article we'll have a link to the
best recommended private transportation
company that you can use your trip here
to the Riviera Maya we will say that now
all private transportation companies are
the same and that's why we like to make
recommendations for our readers
number two is the audio bus this is the
only public bus that services the Cancun
Airport they mainly have service to
downtown San Khun Porter merliss and
Plato Carmen
there are infrequent buses also directed
to lune now these buses are very
cost-effective if you're traveling by
yourself or on a budget and staying near
the bus station
however the audio bus does not stop
along the highway at individual hotels
and in our article we'll have detailed
instructions as to how to take the audio
bus and some important tips the audio
bus does leave from all four terminals
of the Cancun Airport if you're going to
CH Illume you have two options
number one you can take the bus to Playa
del Carmen which will take you to the
Juarez and Fifth Avenue bus station
where you can transfer to another bus
going to Tulum or you can catch one of
the infrequent buses going direct to
Tulum to this station here you can check
the audio website for the exact
schedules you can purchase your audio
bus tickets upon arrival inside the
terminal or on the platform at these
stands here we do recommend purchasing
them when you arrive because they are
time tickets you can purchase bus
tickets from Cancun Airport to Tulum in
pesos small bills of dollars and credit
cards it should be noted that the audio
bus arrives in the downtown of Tulum if
you are staying along the beach in the
hotel zone most hotels are about 15 to
25 minutes away and taxis are very
expensive in Tulum this is where you
might just want to take a private
transfer to save time and money
number 3 option is if you're staying an
all-inclusive hotel sometimes they have
buses it will pick
and you can include transportation in
your package now this can be very
convenient but you might have to wait
when you get here to airport because the
bus is often or 450 people or 60 people
and you have to wait for everyone to get
through security and customs so in this
case you also could just book a private
transportation and go straight to your
hotel and that way when you get to your
hotel you're not with a group of people
they're all checking at the same time
another thing to consider if you're
taking the hotel transportation is the
return to the Cancun Airport often the
return to the airport is with a group of
people leaving at multiple climbers so
this might put you at the airport an
hour or two before you need to be there
this is where you might just want to
take a private transfer to save some
time on your vacation we will say there
are no large all-inclusive hotels in the
downtown of Tulum or the hotel zone of
Tulum there are a few just north of
Tulum you can check the link on our
website to the private transportation
company to see what zone your hotel is
in the fourth option is car rental
there's many cars for rental at the
airport and if you're going to be
staying and doing a little adventure and
driving on your own this can be a good
option to get to and from the airport
check out our guide on our website for
driving in Mexico for important tips for
your vacation number five is a taxi or
uber now we have to say uber does not
operate currently in the Riviera Maya so
this is not an option from the Cancun
Airport taxis are another option of
course when anybody flies into an
airport they want on maybe just hop in a
taxi taxis from the Cancun Airport might
not be the best option for you for
several reasons the first reason is
there's no set prices on taxis and taxes
do not have meters nor are there booths
where you can buy tickets so the prices
are open to negotiation and that's kind
of hard when you brand and you don't
want to have to negotiate a price like
any airport in the world it can be a
little confusing after a long flight
being asked by many people about
transportation options it's very nice to
have a pre booked transfer waiting for
you at the airport so you can go right
to your hotel
second you can't get a round-trip
discount because you'll be taking
different taxis so with the private
transportation you can get a round-trip
discount and so this is a much better
option because you can pay in advance
you have several methods of pain and you
have a bilingual driver we hope whatever
option you choose to get from the Cancun
Airport to Tulum that you have a great
vacation in the local area to help you
