Cancun

Travel to Cancun

Cancun International Airport is Mexico's second busiest airport and is served by a large number of flights from airports around the UK. These include some national carriers as well as charter flights which are by far the cheaper option

On arrival in Cancun

The airport is about six miles from the central hotel zone in Cancun and two companies, Gray Line and TTA, run regular shuttle services from the airport into town.

Getting around Cancun

Buses are by far the most convenient mode of transport - though perhaps not the most comfortable or spacious! Services are regular and cheap with Kukulcan Boulevard especially being serviced by a constant flow of buses. Taxis are also widely available though you'll find that these are considerably more expensive in the Hotel Zone than they are in the downtown area. Hiring a car from Cancun Airport is also an option, and is a good idea if you're planning on exploring as the hotel zone is rather spread out. There aren't many cars on Isla Mujeres - you can hire a golf cart to get about though!

Travelling further afield

The main long distance bus terminal is located on Avenue Tulum and runs services to cities across the country - as far as Mexico City (a journey of approximately 26 hours) For further journeys, change at Mexico City.
