By Car:

Large and well-paved highways connect the major cities and touristic destination in the Cancun and other Quintana Roo destination and in general in the Yucatan Peninsula, major roads are well-maintained and connect most any main place you’ll need to go. You'll find in Cancun Airport and Downtown the major car rental players like Hertz, Avis, Europcar, Budget, etc. as well as local companies, but navigating the country's notorious mandatory insurance can take some careful research because are easy to come by though expensive rent and the companies tack on huge fees and taxes to the offered price. Recommendations: Though some regions of Mexico have cartel violence and safety concerns, Cancun, Playa del Carmén and in General the Mayan Riviera and Yucatan Peninsula have a thriving tourism industry and works hard to preserve it. Likewise, just be prudent check your routes follow the laws and drive the speed limit, that can be enough to avoid any security problem.

Travel recommendations:

₪ For a nice travel experience, it is ideal to have a map of the place, many travel agencies or tourist information centers will provide them. ₪ Always ask the fare before boarding any taxi and check that your registration and plates are in sight. ₪ Before sitting down to eat or drink something, check the means of payment, it is important since not all places can count on card payment if that is your plan (Some places receive your dollars according to the type of change that suits them). ₪ The Zona Hotelera area is the most secure in Cancun, Resort areas and tourist destinations generally do not see the level of drug-related violence and crime.
