Cancun Travel Tips 2023 | Watch before Going!

[@reginaldmackey6616]

I’m with you 100% and I’m an adult male and have always felt that if I need to get around in a foreign country to use local means for transportation. Less stress, less worries and better to avoid headaches down the road.

[@3Days3Noches]

Thank you so much for sharing this!!! It means a lot that you watched this video

[@JPTech933]

Great advice. I'm writing lots of comments on 3Days-Noches because I was in Cancun with family 23-31Dec. and I like sharing my observations to help people prepare and plan. Can't wait to visit Mexico again and certainly watch lots of your videos with such great advice! Thank you. The E-gates there were only 4 and two were offline, so it was faster going to the human counter. all the planes arrive at the same time. The wait was 1.5hours and we had only carry-on. Just like the new kiosk they are currently being implemented so depending on the day of travel sometimes they work or don't. Smoking, what is banned is E-cigarettes, Vapes are completely illegal, don't even bother bringing one. Yes traffic, only one highway 307, and it's only two lanes in each direction, if there's an accident it can add hours to your travel. Sun is very strong because Cancun is closer to the equator, this is especially true for us very white Canadians, so many people were burned, even children, even with 100 spf don't lie in the sun, skin cancer is the most common form of cancer. I had a long sleeve spf shirt and an extra large brimmed tilley type hat. My face still got red from the reflection of the sand and water. Getting ready for travel in economy Snacks, dry granola bars, beef jerky, trail mix, gum will all be your friends with long delays and line-ups. Muffin & nut bread also passed the security and was enjoyed on board. Be sure to include some disinfectant wipes also. As mentioned in other comments I prefer paying cash, and don't want to use my card. You can order Pesos at your bank, I bring at least 1000mxp (about $80CAD $60USD) . It's useful for common bus transport like ADO, bus in hoteleria zone and the Colectivo, also advantageous when negotiating with vendors and buying at convenience stores. The shops often exaggerate the price in USD but prefer it, because of the exchange rate.

[@3Days3Noches]

This is awesome thank you!!!

[@lindyn4]

Wow thank you about the grass

[@3Days3Noches]

You’re welcome!!

We used Nacho Tours for transportation to the Vidanta Mayan Palace Riviera Maya. Rolando was a great driver and the price was great $65 US for 4 adults with lots of baggage 🧳.

[@3Days3Noches]

Thank you so much for watching and giving feedback on them!! We don't get anything for recommending them but we know what its like to be scammed and driving with crazy taxi drivers lol

Thank you for watching!!

[@TruthMan1234]

Thanks for the good info . I’m a veteran traveler to Cancun and surrounding areas since the early 90s and A LOT , has changed. Some for better & some worse . The biggest is this post Covid huge price hike on rooms . Have literally seen hotel rates DOUBLE in most places in the last 3 years , and food and other services too . Bummer , as we aren’t all millionaires in America , lol. Hint … best all around killer deal going to in January… the once famous Hotel Casa Turquesa . A boutique 30 room and art museum on the beach . Faded glory steal !

[@3Days3Noches]

Yesssss!!!!! Us too

[@storagewaterheatingwins7780]

Landed in Cancun yesterday, pretty typical immigration lines and wait. No paperwork to fill our anymore! Golf bags are at luggage claim #1. Lots of traffic south of the airport going north, add extra time getting back to the airport.

Returning to Playa del carmen. Very valid points about renting a car. Going to xcaret parks, cenotes and other beaches, it was cheaper and less stressful renting a car to go where you need to when you want to. Thanks for the video, I'm Returning this summer and didn't know about traffic.

[@3Days3Noches]

Thanks for watching!! Hopefully it’s getting better as they finish the construction

[@thyvu4366]

I totally agreed with you not driving on vacation ❤️❤️❤️

[@3Days3Noches]

🥳🥳🥳

[@SkinnyV19103]

We rented a Jeep to drive to Playa del Carmen & Tulum back in the day, before they called it Riviera Maya. It was a stick shift & was the only thing available. Only one in our group knew how to drive it. She was pretty pissed when we got back to the hotel zone Cancun from our day trip. We have also been stopped by police in a rental car going into downtown Cancun. They wanted us to pay $60 USon the spot. We talked them down to $40 & they let us go.

[@3Days3Noches]

Yikes!! Thanks for sharing this experience!!

[@daniboo9956]

We just came back from Playa Del Carmen via Cancun airport. We saw many car accidents and our driver said it was mostly people that don't live there. So I agree we will never rent a car. In Playa everything was walkable.

[@3Days3Noches]

Oh wow! Another great reason not to rent a car ha ha!!! Hope you had a good time!!

[@424mandi]

Couldn't agree more about the last tip. My wife and I are spoiled now flying 1st class/business 😆

[@3Days3Noches]

I love it!!! I seriously never thought I’d be the one saying it. But we spend money on so many frivolous things when we could be flying first class. I just sent my daughter first class and she was like whaaat ha ha

[@kmaclese10]

[@normaalvarez675]

Hello, just came back from a 7 days vacation, we rent a car and later a motorbike to move around the city and other cities outside of Cancun, we had NO issues at all.

[@SkinnyV19103]

Pulled over by police driving a rental into downtown Cancun. They demanded $60 US on the spot or they would take our id away! We talked them down to $40! They let us go. Beware! It is dangerous.

[@travelcouple12]

I have been Cancún 5 times, May, July, September and October and I only recommended to stay at Krystal Grand/Attitude in hotel zone although it’s not the newest hotel, the location is the best especially for people love staying in the ocean water. The beach is the minimal waves, I stayed in other hotels in hotel zone and I just couldn’t swim at all, the sand and wave are not for swimming.

[@3Days3Noches]

Thanks for the input!!!

[@DennisKo]

I just got back from Cancun on Friday and the Visitax kiosk was empty. I had already paid the Visitax before I left for my trip but I definitely thought to myself that no one would have known if I didn’t pay it.

[@3Days3Noches]

Probably! And then they threaten you with that it’s attached to your passport and you’ll be fined if you don’t 🥴

[@russian007royal]

Love your videos. How long is the nacho tour ride from the airport to Excellence Playa Mujeres during an average day and the price?

[@3Days3Noches]

Thanks for watching!! The price depends on how many people etc. you have to contact him for a free quote. It takes about 40 minutes or so!

[@tonytryhuk3556]

Hi, videos are so helpful! Would you try and get an aircraft seat on the left or right side? I am trying to upgrade seat class and want a better experience. Thanks!!

[@ferozap8291]

I’ve stayed at the Riu Latino and the Riu Dunamar in Costa Mujeres over the past year in April, October and last August. I noticed some feces floating in the water and a piece on the sand. I googled this and some people have said that it is human whereas some have said that the locals say it is manatees? One article I read said it’s from the sewage system from Isla Mujeres. How do we know for sure what it is? We love to swim in the ocean.

[@3Days3Noches]

Ugh! Never heard of that before. But probably Human

[@MsLuzifer17]

Thank you so much for all your videos. Have you ever been there in Oct? Any advice if so?

[@3Days3Noches]

Thank you for watching! I haven’t been in October. But I have been in early November! It’s at the tail end of hurricane season so the weather is hit or miss

[@simsim983]

Thanks for all the videos you put! Helped us a lot! Any advice for finding places for family of 5? Most of the hotels don’t take more than 4. Some have very expensive suites for families. Thank you.

[@3Days3Noches]

Hi! Thanks for watching! In my experience I have found it cheaper to get two adjoining rooms! But you can look at Fiesta Americana. Also BeachScape but that’s not all inclusive.

[@tofunmilaleye]

Hi! Thanks so much for your video. Is September a good time to go? We found a pretty good deal for the end of September and I’m seeing mixed reviews especially around the weather. We’re afraid it might be too hot/ humid.

[@3Days3Noches]

Yes September you will get great deals because it’s in hurricane season. So it’s pretty much always hot there but during that time it’s more rainy etc. which is why the deals are better. But it can also be sunny and perfect

Is it possible to walk a couple blocks from the airport and catch an Uber because our hotel is Just 15 minutes away from the airport because I tried to transportation companies but they don’t go there probably because it’s too short of a drive and there’s no money to be made

[@Stephdzu]

Do you know a transfer service between Playa del Carmen and Cancun? Do hotels usually offer this service? We're traveling and staying a few days in Playa del Carmen and then going to Cancun, but I'm not sure about the best way to move between both cities. Also, about sunscreen I've heard a lot that you need to bring or buy a biodegradable sunscreen for the cenotes or the parks, but I really have no idea how to know what kind of sunscreen to bring. Are there specific brands or ingredients I should/ shouldn't avoid? Thanks for the info

[@3Days3Noches]

Thanks for watching!! You can contact Nacho tours and see if they are free! Via WhatsApp. [phone]. Yes that’s true with the sunscreen. On the excursion we took to Cozumel we couldn’t wear any sunscreen so those spf shirts and hoodies are awesome for that. I would go to trip advisor for the place or resort that you are going to and in the review section there is a search bar and type in sunscreen and see what other travelers have used. Great point for me to do some research and a video on!!

[@anllelafrank9590]

Would you recommend avoiding Cancun in the summer? I am planning my first trip there and am wondering if visiting during the summer months is a good idea or not.

[@bryanschool-ro1qv]

@@3Days3Noches we are staying at the Excellence Playa Mujeres, unsure if we will ferry over to the isla or not yet, just trying to prepare for our travel to and from the airport!

[@bryanschool-ro1qv]

We land Thursday late afternoon and leave Tuesday

[@3Days3Noches]

Oh!!! Yay!!! Yes it will just depend on time and day!!

[@3Days3Noches]

So you might get a little traffic going to the resort bc of rush hour! Grab a $22 margarita at the hut and it will be a fun ride 😂

[@CGuzmanSafety]

I'm renting a car, is that a good option?

[@3Days3Noches]

I personally would not. Cops stop tourists at times and try to get money from them for no reason. Also this can happen. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnzaaHSGmrWYqa8

[@mattg8156]

First Class is so nice

[@3Days3Noches]

The best!

[@tonytryhuk3556]

Considering it for upcoming trip. Going to Cancun, would you recommend left or right side of aircraft for best views of the area? Would rather see ocean than jungle

[@3Days3Noches]

@tonytryhuk3556 it totally depends on where you are approaching from but you’ll see beautiful oceans from the both sides

Thanks for watching !!

[@Highflier_Jai]

I think you missed one important tip, if you’re flying in and out from cancun airport- we don’t need to fill out the immigration form/tourist card.

[@3Days3Noches]

I did add that!!! 04:56 in the video :)

[@inmyviewnow]

how did you get scammed with the taxi service ?

[@3Days3Noches]

They quote you one price but then double it when you get there. We tried to dispute it with him and he locked all the doors and would t let us out until we paid.

[@asianangler]

@@3Days3Noches wow i'd just climb to the front of taxi and help myself to unlock then lol

Does anybody know if you can travel from Tijuana to Cancun without a passport and just use your ID and birth certificate if needed?

[@3Days3Noches]

I do not! But someone else might know. I bet google knows lol

[@JennyJAldrich]

She assumes we all stay in resorts. Im going to Cancun and the Riviera Maya 3 times this year, 6 weeks total. Staying over 3 weeks on two different islands. Staying in the Hotel zone. Staying In Playa. I am not once staying in a resort. Going to Mexico doesnt automatically mean staying in a resort.

[@3Days3Noches]

You are so right! Yes my channel Is more for the resort goers and I mention that in my videos too. So many beautiful ways to experience Mexico. There are a ton of bloggers out there that show they perspective too

[@munirjeraj6303]

Sorry forgot to add travelling end Oct 2023 for 10 days

[@3Days3Noches]

Again if you don’t care about the beach then Moon Palace would be good. Email me and I’ll tell you what the member pricing might be. [e-mail]

[@munirjeraj6303]

Thanks for ur quick response No don’t care much about beach good facilities service and food including choice of on site restaurants

[@3Days3Noches]

Oh perfect. Moon palace might be great then. It’s huge but so many activities and good food and drinks. If you want a smaller resort with a fun party vibe I heard Unico 27 is good too

[@Riddingwithvivian]

Ill be going to cancun at the end of march and Im for sure renting a car...they are cheap and I get bored at the resort and there is alot to see other than the resort plus you don't have to spend for taxis which you always run the risk of getting scammed and I don't drink so no danger there and also never give your license to a cop in mexico or any other country...get a photo copy of license to show something and say something like my license is the property of the state you live and I can't give you something that Ive been trusted with that is not my property which is the truth...also always be prepared to give a bribe and negotiate the bribe with all your broken spanish is you know some

[@3Days3Noches]

Great tips!!! Thank you so much. This will help some people who are brave enough to rent a car!!!

[@LHP74D3]

I clicked on the link for seaweed on facebook, it was in Spanish, I can't read that.

Car Rental comments: I’ve been to Cancun 14 times and have rented cars to go up to Isla Blanca. Every single time I was stopped by Mexican law enforcement (not traffic cops) and told I was speeding when in fact I was not. I was bribed every time north of Cancun. Costing me $75-100 USD each time. So I would NOT recommend renting a vehicle in Mexico as the police corruption has gotten worse over the years. They look for tourist car rentals and pull you over. This is fact from experience.

[@3Days3Noches]

Thank you! Real experience matters! Since I’ve never actually done it and only was told this is what happens!! Appreciate it a lot!!

[@Riggy931]

An important thing to note is how low speed limits are in Mexico. Not to say this isn't also due to corruption but many areas in Mexico have speed limits as low as 30km per hour. For anyone used to driving in the US this will be ridiculously slow and following the flow of faster traffic is only more likely to lead to getting pulled over as a tourist. I do agree its safest for tourists to not rent a car. Still, if you want to, police shaking you down does not necessarily mean you'll be in mortal danger or ever encounter real danger. Just depends on whether your plans necessitate one or not.

[@chrishnapaul2464]

I have a question regarding food. Is it safe to eat a salad at the resort or should you be concerned about how it is washed?

[@3Days3Noches]

Great question!! I’ve been there over a dozen times and eat 2-3 salads a day and never had an issue but that’s just my personal experience

[@chrishnapaul2464]

The Sargassum has pushed us away from The Riviera Maya. The uptick in Cartel violence in Quintana Roo has finally put the pin it it forever for us. Found a new island, a new beach and ZERO sargassum. And of course, there is always a chance of violence in Mexico. Cancun all the way to Tulum and beyond, is no longer exempt.

[@3Days3Noches]

Which beach and island??? Tell us!!

[@lifesurfing8377]

And what is this wonderful beach?

[@mariagents9575]

You didn’t tell us what beach

[@ryanreeves70]

Huge scams on car rentals..they make you buy their insurance and then charge you for missing spare tires that were never there or scratches..video the car inside out as you check in and return it if you rent one.

[@3Days3Noches]

Yes!!! Whenever we say not to rent a car it triggers people but it’s true it’s not safe
