Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.
For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!
Each passenger is allowed one large bag (29" x 21" x 11" / 74 x 53 x 28 cm) and one small bag (22" x 14" x 9" / 56 x 36 x 23 cm). Luxury sedans can only accommodate 2 large bags. We always send the vehicle that is the best fit for you and your luggage, so make sure to select the actual amount of luggage you are traveling with when booking. If you have oversized luggage, or are unsure if your luggage will fit, contact us.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.

Overview: car trip from Cancun to Puerto Aventuras
Just a short distance from the hustle and bustle of Cancun lies Puerto Aventuras, a small resort town with all the amenities of Cancun without all of the traffic and crowds. The Riviera Maya is among the most beautiful and luxurious vacation destinations of the 21st century and Daytrip has you covered with the two most popular ways to get around: shuttle buses and private car transfers.
This trip takes 1 hour and 20 minutes along the 307 Highway, which follows the shoreline of the Caribbean Sea. This highway connects all the resorts, seaside hamlets, and larger cities that make up the Yucatan Peninsula vacation network. You can stop by a cenote to appreciate this region’s unique geographical features, or tour ancient Mayan ruins along the way. Daytrip makes it easy to craft the vacation of your dreams, so let’s get started!
About Puerto Aventuras
Puerto Aventuras was carved out from the lush tropical jungles along the shore of the Caribbean Sea in the 1980s. This stretch of the seaside on the Yucatan Peninsula was an economic development project supported by the Mexican government to bring international investment and showcase Mexico’s pristine natural beauty.
As Cancun exploded in popularity in the 1970s and 1980s, smaller resort towns like Puerto Aventuras were built to meet the demand for luxury vacations in tropical destinations. It is a short distance, only an 80-minute drive, from Cancun, but has a whole different atmosphere than the big city.
Puerto Aventuras is a small gated community located just outside of Playa del Carmen. It offers a more private, intimate vacation setting than Cancun while still having all the beachfront activities and amenities. You won’t find the flashy high-rise hotels of Cancun in Puerto Aventuras. It prides itself on being more low-key, with detached homes and private yards surrounded by lush vegetation.
The town of Puerto Aventuras has a year-round population of 22,000 people, but many more visit every dry season for the golf courses, secluded bungalows, luxurious spa amenities, and restaurants. The resorts have all-inclusive packages for on-site activities and even offer excursions out of the resort to local attractions, zip-lining over the jungle, and archaeological tours of Mayan ruins. For a relaxing vacation, Puerto Aventuras should be your next stop!

How to get from Cancun to Puerto Aventuras
The 307 highway connects Cancun to the resort towns dotted along the coast, including Playa del Carmen and Puerto Aventuras.

Cancun Airport (CUN) transfer options
If you are arriving in Puerto Aventuras straight from the airport, arrange your transportation before your flight to Cancun. The last thing you want after a long flight is to have to withdraw cash, negotiate with a driver in the airport line, and hope for the best.
Puerto Aventuras’ many all-inclusive resorts have everything you could ever need or want for a relaxing seaside vacation. With fun for the whole family, there is something for everyone! Here are just a few activities you have to look forward to after your ride from Cancun to Puerto Aventuras:
Snorkeling and Scuba Diving
Puerto Aventuras is a gateway to some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving spots in the Riviera Maya. You can take a boat tour to nearby coral reefs and explore the vibrant underwater world filled with tropical fish, sea turtles, and colorful coral. Dive shops in the area offer guided tours and equipment rentals for both beginners and experienced divers. Maybe this will be the year you go for scuba diving certification?
Golfing and Tennis at the Puerto Aventuras Golf Course
Enjoy a round of golf at the Puerto Aventuras Golf Course, an 18-hole, par-36 course designed by Tom Lehmann. The course is set amidst tropical landscapes and offers a challenging yet enjoyable experience for players of all skill levels. Not a pro yet? Use their practice range to train your swing, or attend their classes for all ages!
The sports club also has artificial turf tennis courts for a competitive match with friends.
Excursions to Cenotes and Archeological Sites
The fun doesn’t stop once you leave the resort! Plan excursions to the beautiful cenotes (natural sinkholes) found all over the Riviera Maya. These parks offer activities like swimming, snorkeling, and guided tours through underground rivers and caves. It is even possible to stop by Cenotes Las Mojarras and Chaak Tun on your Daytrip transfer from Cancun, so take advantage of the opportunity!
When is the best time to visit Puerto Aventuras
A typical year in Mexico’s tropical climate is divided into two seasons: dry and rainy. The dry season, from late November to April, is the best time to visit Puerto Aventuras. The sunny skies, minimal rainfall, and warm (but not too humid!) temperatures will make relaxing on the beach or renting a boat a pleasant and safe experience.
During the rainy season, from May to October, tropical storms and occasional hurricanes hit the coast. These weather events are important for maintaining Mexico’s lush tropical landscape by providing adequate rainfall and bringing deep-sea nutrients to the coastline. However, they may result in canceled flights, rained-out excursions, and dangerously high winds.
Preguntas y Respuestas sobre Viajar de Cancun a Puerto Aventuras
You’ll be at your hotel the fastest with a private transfer. Shuttle buses typically require the pick-up and drop-off of passengers to different hotels, and they operate on a set schedule. A private car, however, runs on your schedule and takes you directly to your hotel.
Not at all! Much of Puerto Aventuras is walkable, but for longer distances, you can rent a golf cart for $40 to $50 per day. Golf carts are the perfect transportation option for their low speed and simple setup, and they’re easy to wipe the sand out of after the beach!
Absolutely! Unlike Cancun’s high-rise hotels and busy roads, Puerto Aventuras has mostly free-standing bungalows in a residential neighborhood. Since you aren’t sharing walls with other loud hotel guests, you can ensure sweet dreams for naptime. The resort also has age-appropriate activities only a short distance from home.
Only a quick 55-mile (89 km) drive is separating you from Puerto Aventuras! This journey can be made in 1 hour and 20 minutes, and you can choose to ride a shuttle bus, rent a car, or hire a private driver.
Yes, many safety precautions are in place in Puerto Aventuras to keep visitors safe. The resort is entirely gated, with 24/7 security, and guests are required to show passports or valid IDs before entry. While you can be confident in your safety, take standard precautions like locking doors.
A private car transfer is the easiest way to travel around the Cancun area. You can be picked up right from your door and do not need to depend on yourself to maneuver Mexico’s highways. It is the perfect middle ground between a shuttle bus and renting a car.

“Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.”
“We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.”
“Exceptional service. Comfortable, safe for a female traveling alone. Reasonably priced. It was my first time in Cancun, Mexico. My Spanish was limited, nice to have someone speak english and give you direction at the sites I booked them twice on my trip, with tours on the way to my destination.”
“We had an absolutely amazing ride with Cuauhtemoc from Cancun to Tulum. The ride was smooth, on time and as a added bonus Temo was very informative about Cancun, Tulum and everywhere in between! By far he was the best driver we had the entire time! Also the van was very sanitized and we felt very safe . 5 stars and way to go from Andrew and Lara. Book with Daytrip and if you're lucky you will get Temo!”
