Cancun Travel Tips

Travel Tips:

Classroom Attire: Your preference, there is no dress code.  However, we do recommend bringing a light jacket or sweater since sometimes the conference room is cold.

Transportation:  We recommend flying in to Cancun International Airport (CUN) and taking a taxi from the airport to the hotel.  Although Uber exists in Mexico, the taxi drivers have agreements that prevent Uber (and other ride share operators) from pickups at the airport and hotels.  Parking at the hotel is free.  However, we STRONGLY recommend NOT to rent a car.  Although the car rental itself is inexpensive, the required insurance (as much as $70 per day) and additional $3000 deposit makes renting a car expensive.  Furthermore, the roads have very low speed limits that are not adhered to but if you are caught speeding it can be a challenging situation with the police.    For excursions, most of the tours include transportation and/or taxis are readily available.

Tipping:  The resort is all-inclusive so technically tipping is not required.  However, the staff will be extremely grateful if you leave a gratuity - such as for the bell boy that carries your luggage.
