I'm staying in the hotel zone, can we catch the ferry over to Isla and just rent a golf cart to rip around wherever we want for the day ? Or do you have to follow a big convoy around with a tour guide and everything. Anyone know ?
You can for sure rent one on your own and do as you please. You rent for the day for about 50 USD. Be your own caravan!! That is what we did.
Wicked thanks a lot buddy...stoked to cruise around that island...what's the best spots to hit on Isla ?
On the East side of the Island be sure to stop at the hotel that has a sign stating "Beer so cold it will hurt your teeth" Have a homemade Pina Coloada, ohhhhh I wish I had a dozen of those right now! Cant remember the name, but you cant miss it.
Hahaha awesome man will try an hit it up for sure...so they don't care if your havin some drinks while your rollin around the island in your cart I take it...as long as your not loser pissed fallin out of the thing or what haha...?
You got it Turpin. You just dont want to bring uneeded attention to yourself. They do have beer cup holders on those carts so, USE EM!:daveandmo: There are all sorts of spots to stop on Isla, we also brought a cooler with us and stopped at one of the little convienence stores got a 6 pack and some ice then traveled. You will want to get started early there is a lot to see on Isla and you'll wish you started earlier. I'm pretty sure you will have to have the cart back by 5:00 pm. We stayed until the last ferry left at about 10:30 or 11:00, there is a lot to do downtown where you will rent the cart. So do your traveling to the South and West sides in the cart and then after returning the cart you can wander all over downtown. Have a blast!
I swear their Pina Coloada's are the best I've ever had.. awsome place. I'm pretty sure that is the name of the place "Beer so cold it will hurt your teeth" we have a picture in our Album. they don't have a menu, but the owner told us that we could order in, he recommended a place and my god we had the best beef burritos ever. Love it there.
Went with 3 friends on Sunday and we got a cart for $400. In all fairness we got it for 3 hours with the posted price $180 per hour. But I have rented there often and am certain I could have had it the whole day for that price as I have done it before. We left Cancun on the 11:30 am ferry and got some food really close to the docks. I had to get the 4:30 ferry back. The place is called Rentadora Cardenas. It is on a street called Guerrero. From the docks go left to where the main road curves to the right. Guerrero is the 3rd street to the right and is down that street on the right. Logo on golf carts is red, white and blue. Bargain hard but don't pay more than $400, which is like $32 US and all taxes are included. They will keep your driver's license as security. Have fun. Watch out for the topes (speed bumps).
