Cancún by car: what to know
A rental car turns Cancún from a hotel-zone holiday into a base for the whole Riviera Maya: cenotes, Mayan sites and quieter beaches down the coast are all within a day's drive.
Picking up the car
Most cars are handed over at or near Cancún International Airport (CUN), about 20 km south of downtown and close to the start of Highway 307. From there the Hotel Zone is reached along Boulevard Kukulcán and downtown via Avenida Tulum or Bonampak.
Day trips from Cancún
Highway 307 runs south to Puerto Morelos, Playa del Carmen (about an hour) and Tulum (about two hours). Chichén Itzá and the colonial town of Valladolid are reached on the 180D toll highway in roughly two and a half to three hours. Starting early beats both the heat and the tour buses.
Roads and insurance
Mexican law requires third-party liability insurance, and it is not always part of the lowest headline price, so check what your offer includes. Watch for topes (speed bumps) in every village, police and military checkpoints on the highways, and make sure the pump is reset to zero at the fuel station.
