Solo travel experience

I went solo and it was my favorite trip yet. I stayed in hostels and felt safe the whole time I was there. I did a day trip/overnight stay on Isla Mujeres and it was amazing. Also did a day trip/tour to Chichen Itza which included a cenote (both must-do’s in my opinion). I used the Aido bus to get there from the airport and it was organized and safe.

Solo travel experience

I traveled to Cancun on my own last year and it was completely fine, stayed in a hostel in the hotel zone and was fine walking around on my own through the day and night and just booked tours that would pick me up from the hostel and everything was great

Solo travel experience

Went up and down the coast on the ADO bus. Everyone was very helpful, including the taxi drivers. I stayed in Puerto Morelos and Isla Mujeres with a couple of transition days in Cancun. No resorts, although the place in Cancun had a restaurant. I felt safe.
