I love the comfort of the bus. I didn’t like that there was no movie with English subtitles and the driver made all announcements in Spanish and I didn’t understand what he was saying.

Bus was very clean and on time. Driver polite and Ado staff at airport were helpful. Relaxing transfer from airport to Merida. Better signage at the airport to show where to get the bus would be helpful.

My bus left without me because the girl at the ticket counter inside told me to wait inside when the bus was waiting at T2!! I was told next bus was at 17:25 and had to purchase another ticket!! I am not happy with the employees of ADO. I had to buy a train ticket and a bus ticket to get to Merida.

Staff at Cancun Centro were rude and unhelpful. Missed my bus and had to buy another ticket online as they would not help me. Worse experience of my life.

the trip was uneventful. The driver seems to have a problem continually shaking his legs (maybe ADHD?) but it didn't affect his driving. More important, I dropped my passport and visa card, he found it and chased me down. I'm very gratefull for that.

James V.

All went great! We didn't realize the bus was a small one (16 seater) until we went to board. We actually preferred it over a big bus, seats were comfortable and easy to move around. Temperature was good inside, bus driver was courteous and polite. Movies with subtitles would have been nice for us English speakers.
