Your Tulum Vacation Could Cost More Than Your Flight
Tulum's beauty comes with a price…literally. Absurd airport taxi fares, hotel disputes involving armed forces, and tragic violence disrupt the idyllic image. Europe gets a direct (well, sort of) flight, and Tulum tries to get bike-friendly.
Well, folks, it looks like Tulum's snazzy new Felipe Carrillo Puerto International Airport is making sure our wallets take flight before our planes do. According to the Hotel Council (those in the know about tourist traps), a jaunt from the airport to downtown Tulum is pricier than a trip all the way to Cancun International. This ain't your mama's bus ride!
The issue? Apparently, our lovely airport has a fondness for charging transportation services an arm and a leg just to enter the grounds. Meanwhile, Cancun Airport is chilling out with fees so low you could practically buy a souvenir with the difference.
