Local Tip from Kelly (Your Local Travel Expert)

I’ve lived in the Cancun area for over 20 years, and here’s the one thing I always tell visitors: book your airport ride in advance.

Arrivals at the airport can be chaotic—and if you’re arriving in high season, it’s a hot, crowded, stressful mess. Booking a private shuttle means skipping the chaos, walking straight to your air-conditioned ride, and starting your vacation with a cold drink and a smile.

Take it from someone who’s seen way too many sweaty tourists panicking in arrivals. Be the hero of your travel party, book ahead.
