Why Choose a Private Shuttle Instead of Public Buses?

Tip #1: Most public buses skip hidden cenotes and off-the-path treasures

Travelers often don’t realize how many unique stops exist between Chichen Itza and Merida—cenotes, small Mayan towns, hidden craft markets—and that public transport won’t take you anywhere near them. But with a private transportation service from Chichen Itza to Merida, you can ask for a custom stop (within reason) or simply enjoy the comfort of knowing you won’t miss anything because of a strict schedule.

Tip #2: Public buses add 2+ hours to your travel

The route between Chichen Itza and Merida only takes about 2 hours by car. But many shared transport options include delays and detours. A van service from Chichen Itza to Merida guarantees you the shortest route possible with fewer interruptions—ideal for those catching a flight, checking into a boutique hotel, or planning an afternoon walking tour in Merida.

Local Advice: Best Times and Routes for This Transfer

Tip #3: Leave after 10 a.m. to avoid traffic and tour crowds

Chichen Itza gets crowded with tour groups early in the morning. If you’re heading out after your visit, consider departing between 10:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. This gives you time to explore the ruins with fewer crowds and enjoy a calm transportation service from Chichen Itza to Merida afterward.

Tip #4: Ask about a cenote stop en route

A hidden gem along the way is Cenote Yokdzonot, located only 20 minutes from Chichen Itza. Most tour companies won’t tell you about it, but Wayak’s drivers are familiar with the detour. If you’d like to add this, simply mention it when booking your van service from Chichen Itza to Merida—small fees or time adjustments may apply, but it’s absolutely worth it.
