Tip!

If you are arriving in Cancun too late to catch the last bus to Playa, there is an alternative. You can take the Riviera Bus to downtown Cancun and then transfer to a Playa del Carmen bus in Cancun. The last bus to Playa leaves Cancun at 12:30 AM. The ride from Cancun Airport to downtown Cancun takes about 30 minutes.
