Cancun airport to Cancun Downtown

Have you chosen to stay in downtown Cancun? That was a smart move! From downtown Cancun, you can conveniently access the beach area, downtown, and the Riviera Maya.

But do you know the best way to get from Cancun Airport to downtown? There are essentially two options: the easy way and the complex way.

The easy way is through our private transfer service. Our service ensures prompt pickup from Cancun Airport to downtown with no unnecessary delays, providing hassle-free transportation to your hotel, hostel, vacation rental, or AIRBNB in downtown Cancun and even the rural areas of the city.

The complex way? That involves taking the ADO bus, available only from Terminal 2 of the airport, with an average wait time of 30 minutes.

We understand that waiting is the last thing you want to do, right? So, why wait? Book your airport transfer to downtown Cancun now!

Distance from Cancun airport to Downtown Cancun

If we search on Google, the distance from Cancun airport to downtown Cancun is 25.4 km. Well, this distance is wrong. Why? Because Google is considering as "downtown Cancun", km 4.5 of the hotel zone.

Downtown Cancun starts from Plaza las Americas and ends at the "cruise ship". The midpoint between the beginning and the end of downtown Cancun is the Palapas Park which is the heart of downtown Cancun.

Therefore, the distance between Cancun airport and downtown Cancun is 19.9 km. A long distance to travel? On average, the ADO bus takes about 40 minutes to get to downtown and the private shuttle takes about 25 minutes or less. Big difference, isn't it? For this and many other reasons the private cab service is your best choice.

  Bolly is FANTASTIC!
This travel service, and especially Bolly, are the best we've ever had! Our family has traveled many times to various locations in this area of Mexico, and we will ALWAYS call Cancun Private Transfers and request Bolly in the future. The customer service was amazing - flexible, great communication, and so much fun! Bolly was on time (actually just the perfect amount of early) and so wonderful to our family! We felt safe, cared for, and had so much fun with him! I recommend this service 100%!

  Cancún to Tulum
Easy, professional, and kind. I rode with Andres from Cancun airport to Tulum and we chatted the whole time; but I know if I had wished to keep to myself, he would’ve respected that as well. His driving was very safe. From booking to drop off, everything was smooth.

  Great Host!
Bolly was the absolute best driver we could have had. So much hospitality and character in one guy. He made the trip from Tulum to the airport and back in a well maintained Cadillac Escalade and provided drinks and entertainment along the way. Can’t wait to come back and catch up with him again!

  Great & on time service!
Noel picked us up to take us to our resort in Playa del Carmen. He was there waiting on us in a very nice & clean luxury SUV. Very nice driver. Mauricio picked us up from the resort to the airport. Also very nice gentleman. Picked us up in what appeared to be a brand new Sienna which was immaculate. They were both on time & great drivers. Highly recommend & we will definitely use again. Thanks for everything. Until next trip.
