Travelling around the Yucatan is simple, cheap, convenient and similar to any other major city. On Avenida Tulum you will find the ADO bus terminal with destinations to anywhere in the Pennisula and beyond. Comfortable coach buses with air conditioning and on some a wi-fi connection. A movie is played on every trip but don’t expect the latest blockbusters to entertain you. Just last week I was watched a Christmas movie from about ten years ago.  At least it’s entertaining none the less.

The structure to the right is in the centre of the roundabout at Avenida Tulum and Uxmal, beside the terminal
