We enjoyed the comfort, climate and safety of the driver. Some of the roads near Chiquila were blocked because of a local street party..twice! But our driver safety negotiated around and got us to the ferry in time..👍

Canada could learn a lot from Mexico's ADO system. It is fast, efficient, and comfortable. One area for improvement is in the bus terminals. Buses arrive and depart but those waiting (internationals) have difficulty telling which bus is theirs, and when it has arrived, and ready to depart. The speaker announcement system in Playa del Carmen is almost incomprehensible and is only broadcast in the front sitting area. Buses do not change their notification boards to show that what bus they are. Glass walls along the seating area would permit travelers to wait in comfort, rather than sweat and melt into wet stinking messes before they board the buses.
Based on 480 reviews, the company was rated 4.2 stars on Busbud. Travellers were especially satisfied with the cleanliness and the seats but often complained with the WiFi. ADO Aeropuerto ticket prices on this trip start at US$40
