Thank you so much for this video! Going to Mexico in a few months and you’ve given me great ideas and places to visit 😚💖 I was wondering if you could advise how much colectivos usually cost (for instance, if I wanted to go from PDC to Tulum) and also, where did you guys leave your backpacks (phones, wallet, water bottle etc) when you went to the cenotes? Is it safe to leave them in a spot on the rocks whilst you’re swimming? Thank you!!
@worldwildhearts Жыл бұрын
The collectives are the cheapest way to get around. It’s about 2.5€ for a single ride, but depending on where you go. The driver will tell you and they have a fair pricing! we left our belongings in the cenote itself on the side. Just keep an eye on your stuff and you’ll be fine. Didn’t seem like an issue to us!

You can definitely do the cenotes as a solo traveler! You pay to enter them and could likely leave your valuables at the ticket entrance with the staff.

Not sure about snorkeling in Playa itself since we didn’t do that, but you can snorkel in the cenotes and see fish there. Or you can take a boat trip over to Cozumel for some amazing snorkeling as a day trip. In terms of safety, we found that area to be very safe ourselves.

Of course! It’s a city so there’s bars, restaurants, entertainment, etc

Not sure on that one but there are weed shops near the end of 5th street (somewhere close to 56th and 5th) that we walked by. Could be a safe option

This video is not objective. Yes, some of bits are amazing but you didn't mention how unsafe it is, how many police is walking around because of big narco cartel, how dirty everything is, how locals are rude if you don't live tips, how everything is much expensive for tourists, car garages converted in (expensive) restaurants, internet no where, wild animals everywhere etc. Never again. Coming from Europe it seems like Mexico is third world country with so many poor ppl struggling to survive. I am used to on Coast of Spain or Croatia and you can't compare that with nothing in Mexico. I just couldn't relax overthere. Very disappointed.
