There is no road onto Holbox — every visitor arrives by ferry, and the island itself runs on golf carts rather than cars.

Why this route is different

Holbox is the one destination on our list with no direct alternative. There is no ADO route that takes you to the island: the bus option is $25 to Chiquilá plus the ferry, and an airport taxi runs $300 or more. Shared shuttles generally do not serve this route at all, because the pier is well off the tourist corridor.

That makes the timing matter more than on other routes. The ferry does not run around the clock, so a late arrival at CUN can mean missing the last crossing. Send your flight number when you book and we will tell you honestly whether the connection works that day or whether an overnight in Chiquilá or Cancun is the safer plan.

What is included

Included: private vehicle for your group only, meet-and-greet at Cancun Airport arrivals, flight monitoring, luggage space, bottled water, bilingual driver and drop-off at the Chiquilá ferry pier.

Not included: the ferry ticket to Holbox, which is bought at the pier, and parking or transport on the island itself. Golf carts are the local transport on Holbox — cars stay on the mainland.

Coming back from Holbox

The return works in reverse: ferry from Holbox to Chiquilá, where your driver meets you for the ride to Cancun Airport or your hotel. Because the ferry schedule drives everything on this route, give us your flight time when booking the return and we will work the pickup backwards from it with margin built in.
