Browse by trip length & budget
Price depends mainly on distance, vehicle size and time of day. The table shows typical ranges per vehicle, not per person.
Longer transfers and night arrivals may cost more.
If your flight arrives late at night, private transfers are often easier than shared ones, since the driver tracks your arrival.
| Route | Typical time | Typical price (USD, per vehicle) |
|---|
| Mérida airport to city centre | 20 to 30 minutes | 25 to 45 |
| Cancún airport to Cancún hotel zone | 25 to 40 minutes | 35 to 70 |
| Cancún airport to Playa del Carmen | 45 to 60 minutes | 55 to 100 |
| Cancún airport to Tulum | 1.5 to 2 hours | 100 to 170 |
| Cancún to Mérida | 3.5 to 4 hours | 250 to 400 |
Private vs. small-group options
Shared shuttles cost less and run on a schedule. A private transfer leaves when you are ready, goes straight to your hotel, and is easier with luggage, children or late flights.
A private driver is usually the better choice for groups and for any transfer with a fixed deadline.
