    Tori,
    Is there a bus that goes STRAIGHT to Puerto Juarez? Every time I try to take the bus that says on the front "puerto Juarez" (even after confirming with the driver) they drop me off like 5-10 mins away from the pier and tell me to get into a tiny white van filled with locals. that van(only once packed ..... well...... "like mexicans" .... lol) leaves that place and drops people off when they say so.

    This is the only way I know how to get to PJ from Golden Parnassus :(

    Is there an easier way? does the bus ever REALLY go to the port? or does the bus just say it for fun? :D

    Thanks for any tidbits! <3

    I have been on a R1 bus that has taken me all the way there. But most of the time, he stops where you mentioned and I do the van. Honestly, I have not seen a bus with the P. Juarez board in a very very long time. I now take a taxi, and maybe you can too. Get to downtown, get off at the first stop and get in a taxi. It shouldn't cost you any more then 20-25 pesos

    All the buses go to downtown from the hz. Pass Temp and the Holiday Inn. Once you come to an intersection, that is downtown. Once through that light, push one of the buttons to let the driver know u want off at the next stop. From there, tell the taxi puerto juarez. The standard fare downtown is 20 pesos, but could be 30 to there. Its their call. Confirm before getting into the taxi

    At Costco you can get stuff by the case like a warehouse, whereas Walmart it's more like an oversized supermarket

    Tori, you're instructions on the bus are easy to follow but for those who like maps in the crowd like me are there any pdf's out there that show bus routes in cancun you know of?
