Mérida → Chichén Itzá: key facts

Getting from Mérida Airport (MID) to Chichén Itzá takes about 1h 50min by car on an empty road (1h 50min – 2h 15min in heavy traffic) over 131 km via MEX 180 and MEX 180D. Our private transfer costs €160 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €230 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.

On arrival: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the passenger terminal, after baggage reclaim (and customs for international flights), holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.

Chichén Itzá is the best-known Maya archaeological site of the Yucatán Peninsula and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, about 120 km east of Mérida. From the airport the route joins the Periférico ring road and then the Mérida-Cancún highway, a four-lane toll road (180D) running straight across the flat limestone plain, with only a few exits. The road leaves the highway at the Chichén Itzá exit and continues a short distance to the site and the village of Pisté. Tolls apply on the highway.

The archaeological zone centres on the pyramid of Kukulcán (El Castillo), with the Great Ball Court, the Temple of the Warriors and the Sacred Cenote around it. The main visitor entrance is on the western side, next to the village of Pisté, where most guesthouses and restaurants are. Several hotels stand in the forest near the eastern side of the site. Cenote Ik Kil lies a few kilometres east, and the colonial town of Valladolid about 40 km further east.

Public transport: Long-distance coaches to Chichén Itzá leave from the bus terminals in central Mérida, not from the airport.
