Booking your flights independently using popular search engines like Skyscanner or Google Flights is recommended. For internal flights in Mexico, consider airlines like Aeromexico for reliability and comfort, or Volaris for more affordable options, but be aware of possible delays. Additionally, ADO is a reputable bus company for comfortable travel within the country. Given the nature of adventure travel, it’s best to have flexible flight options or travel insurance to cover unforeseen changes or cancellations.

Airport Transfers For the most efficient transfer to your hotel, consider using shared vans, which you can pre-book at www.bookaway.com to ensure fair pricing. Prices usually range from 10-20 USD, depending on your destination. Alternatively, look for transfer service kiosks at the airport exits for official pricing and secure payment options.
