    Hello. We will be at playa del Carmen In 12 days and want to do Isla mujeres or holbox which do you recommend if only can do one. I'm swaying to Isla mujeres as it's nearer and with the trip alcohol drinks are included but looking into it most prefer holbox. I'd like to here your opinion thanks.

    Hey guys, cool video! How did you get from the Cancun airport to the bus terminal? Or where you not coming from the airport? Any recommendations for airport to bus terminal transfer?

    • @TouristtoLocal
      @TouristtoLocal  Год назад +2

      We were staying in downtown, so we actually went to the bus terminal that was a few blocks from where we were staying. You could actually take the Holbox bus directly from the airport itself, as there is a stop there! There's also an ADO bus from the airport to the downtown station. Whatever you choose, you can view the times online on ADO's website.

      It's extremely safe :) You can get here by flying to Cancun and taking the ADO bus directly from the airport to Chiquila. Then you just take the ferry. Have a great time!

    Roots did not invent lobster pizza. 25 years ago local native “Chefo” invented it after being invited to work in Italy . Upon return he opened Edelyn Pizza in front of the park. “Chefo’s”. (But honestly now lobsters have been over fished to support this trend of lobster pizza, so they are scarce & too small;(

    Just arrived to holbox and to me this is far from paradise. There is sargassum, prices are really high, way too many people and the island is completely flat. If you want to visit true paradise islands go koh chang koh good in thailand or koh rong in kambodza. Even bacalar in mexico feels way more relaxed and more beautiful with less tourists

    • @TouristtoLocal
