How to get to Puerto Morelos from Cancun by local bus?
Transfers in ADO buses, along with collective vans, are the most popular
means among Quintana Roo residents. This is due to the affordable price and the good connectivity of this
medium. They are usually punctual, safe, and more comfortable than collective vans, in general, they are an
excellent option to go to Puerto Morelos from Cancun.
The ADO bus stations are located in strategic points in the state of
Quintana Roo, and connect downtown Cancun with the airport and, basically, any destination you want to
travel to in the Yucatan Peninsula.
The central station is located in the center of Cancun, (Pino Street, between Tulum and
Uxmal avenues); and there are other ticket offices inside the Cancun International Airport.
You can purchase your ADO bus tickets through the official website or directly at the
ticket offices, before midnight.
Payments can be made with your credit or debit card; unlike collective vans, which charge
cash and pay directly to the driver.
You can make your payment in dollars or Mexican pesos; We recommend that you do it in
Mexican pesos so that you do not spend more with the currency exchange.

How to get to Puerto Morelos from Cancun by collective van?
Another alternative to get to Puerto Morelos from Cancun are the groups of the local
companies Playa Express and the Foreign Collective Service. They are vans,
which resemble a minibus, where 15 passengers can fit (counting the driver) and operate several routes
constantly, both during the day and at night.
This means of transport is the most used by locals in the area, since it is quite effective
to travel to their work areas at a low cost, and due to the large number of stops on the routes. It is a
practical and safe transport although less comfortable than the ADO buses. The Playa
Express service is operated by a private company while the Foreign Collective
Service is provided by a taxi drivers union.
It is a practical choice; however, it is not as comfortable as ADO buses, and accidents
tend to occur periodically, due to drivers not respecting traffic signs, speed limits, and maximum passenger
capacity; serious problem in times of pandemic.
Between the two companies, the safest are the Playa Express vans. But if
you are going to travel at night, you can only use the Foreign Collective Service since it
is the only one that makes the journey from Cancun to Tulum at night.
There are several areas where you can make the bus stop. In Cancun you can take the service
near the ADO station; and in Playa del Carmen, the stop is very close to Fifth Avenue.
Do not worry! Here you will find the exact addresses:
- - Playa Express:
-
- Cancun: In front of the ADO bus terminal.
- Playa del Carmen: street 2 with avenue 20.
- - Groups of the Foreign Collective Service:
-
- Cancun: Avenida Tulum, next to the ADO Bus terminal and the “La Comercial Mexicana” shopping
center.
- Playa del Carmen: street 2 with avenue 20 and avenue 25.
Course specifications:
- - The duration of the journey is between 40 minutes to an hour; It will depend on the number of stops
that the same passengers ask the driver before arriving at the stop in Puerto Morelos.
- - In the transfer on the federal highway, there are no designated or established stops, local people
stand on the side of the road and the drivers already know that they are waiting to be picked up to go
somewhere; the wait used to take between 10 to 30 minutes; however, with the pandemic, those times have
doubled.
- - Foreign Collective Services vans circulate every day, 24 hours a day, regardless of
holidays.
- - The price ranges from MXN 35 to MXN 40 each way, that is, between USD 1.75 to USD 2, it is paid in

to charge you; If you are not easily located, ask the driver to notify you when you arrive at your
destination.
