Your exact address in Tulum matters

Your van goes straight from Cancun Airport to your accommodation in Tulum. Travel with your own group and compare Economy and Premium before choosing your arrival, departure or round trip.

Tulum town, Aldea Zama, La Veleta and the beach hotel area are different drop-off locations. Select the accommodation itself when comparing fares. For a private home, send the street address and access instructions if it is not listed; choosing a different nearby hotel can change the journey.

A private van for your family or friends

Your airport transfer is reserved for the people on your booking. Bring everyone together in one search, including children, and compare the vehicle capacity with the size of your party.

The fare is for the vehicle and the journey you choose. You do not buy a separate ticket for each passenger. For a larger party, compare our group transportation before booking.

Economy for the ride. Premium for the arrival.

Economy covers your private van journey. Premium adds priority boarding, a professional bilingual driver and a courtesy convenience-store stop, useful for picking up essentials before checking in.

Premium also includes discount coupons and free cancellation under the booking terms. Review the cancellation conditions before paying. A child seat is a separate request, subject to availability.

Your hotel entrance, not a shared shuttle stop

Select the full name of your hotel in the Cancun Hotel Zone, Playa del Carmen, Tulum or Costa Mujeres. If your resort has several sections, check the name against your accommodation confirmation.

Our private transfer takes your party to the booked drop-off. If the property has a pedestrian entrance or special access instructions, tell us ahead of the trip so we can arrange the arrival with you.

Book the return while your plans are together

Choose Round trip to arrange the airport pickup and your ride back in one booking. The price table separates one-way and round-trip fares so you can compare the complete journey.

For the return, confirm the hotel pickup details in your reservation. If your flight or accommodation changes, contact us with the booking reference so we can review the transfer.

Check your airport: Cancun is not Tulum Airport

We arrange this journey from Cancun International Airport (CUN) to your Tulum hotel. Tulum International Airport, Felipe Carrillo Puerto (TQO), is a different airport. If your flight arrives there, contact us before booking so we can help you arrange the right pickup.

Check the airport code before searching, especially if you compared flights to both airports. For an arrival at TQO, ask us to confirm the correct service instead of leaving Cancun Airport as the origin. For your return, check the departure airport again; an outbound and inbound flight do not necessarily use the same airport.

Town, Aldea Zama and the beach hotel zone

Tulum town is useful for restaurants, shops and accommodations around the urban area. Aldea Zama and nearby residential neighborhoods have their own entrances and building names. Hotels on the coast extend along a separate beach corridor. A hotel using Tulum in its name is therefore not necessarily close to the town center.

The town and beach road are different transfer destinations, so your price depends on where you are staying. Choose your hotel by name for the right fare. For a condominium, share the building name, address and entry instructions with us, and check with your host about late arrivals.

Plan the road journey and your first afternoon

The drive from Cancun Airport follows the Riviera Maya corridor toward Tulum. The town is around 118 km from the airport; allow roughly two hours for the drive as an initial planning estimate. Traffic, the final hotel location and access along the beach road can extend the trip. Airport formalities take additional time before you leave.

Keep the first afternoon flexible rather than booking a tightly timed activity just after landing. A private transfer lets your party travel to the booked destination together without arranging a second ride from a town stop. Pack any essentials you want during the journey where they are easy to reach, and discuss a necessary extra stop before confirming.

Arrange the return from the correct hotel

Choose Round trip to enter both travel dates in one search. Your hotel is the arrival destination and the departure point for the return journey. If your holiday includes several accommodations, confirm where you will be staying on the last night before arranging airport pickup.

For a return-only journey, choose Departure and select the hotel as your origin. Keep the pickup confirmation with your flight details and check the departure airport and date. If you change your flight or move between town and the beach, contact us with your reservation reference so the return arrangements can be reviewed.

Plan Tulum in three parts

Town, the beach road and the archaeological site are separate places. Choose one area for each outing instead of spending your day going back and forth.

Arrange your airport arrival →

The ruins above the Caribbean

Tulum's archaeological site combines Maya buildings with a coastal setting. Bring water, comfortable shoes and sun protection. Check current access instructions before going; your airport transfer does not include archaeological or park admission.

Dinner in town, beach another day

Town works well for browsing local shops and choosing a restaurant. Do not assume your beach hotel is within walking distance of downtown. Check the actual route and arrange a return ride if you will be out late.

Cenotes deserve their own plan

Ask the operator about access, swimming rules and included equipment before paying. Keep a dry bag for valuables, follow the site's instructions and avoid squeezing a timed activity between your hotel pickup and flight.
