GETTING THERE
Air
Merida's Manuel Crecencio Rejon airport is 7km southwest of the city center.
Visitors can get to Merida from Mexico City and Cancun as well as cities in the
U.S. From the airport, taxi and mini van or colectivos can take you to the
downtown area. Be sure to buy a ticket from a desk at the airport before
hopping in.
Bus
The bus journey from Mexico City takes about 24 hours. There are
several first and second-class bus companies to choose from such as Ticketbus,
ADO GL, UNO, CAME, Caribe Express, Autotransportes del Caribe.
Car
If you are planning to drive to Merida from Mexico City, the journey will
take around 24 hours. Booking for a car in Mexico in advance is likely to
save you money, unless you bring your own vehicle across the border.
GETTING AROUND
Most of the places in central Merida are within walking distance, but you
may also find a ride on one of the traditional horse-drawn carriages
exciting. If you want to go visit the museum or the Mayan sites out the
central city, you'll need to take a taxi which can be easily hailed off
the street, or take a bus which can be flagged down at any corner.
