Always wear comfortable shoes meant for walking. A protective umbrella is a good idea too, not just for chance of rain but for the beating rays of the sun too.

CHRISTOPHER EDGAR ADAMS - yesterday Cancun Airport Transportation to Puerto Aventuras

Everything went really smoothly and it was easy to fine the rep outside the terminal. Good drivers both ways and our pickup back was right on time.
