hey guys i have never been there but i was born in rio de janeiro brasil, that be said i know all depends where u go, i planning in stay downtown, i'm doing the backpack have no hotel booked yet, wanna stay where the local are any advise ?
There are a lot of hostels in Cancun that are cheap and some have rather nice accomodations, if you are backpacking it, that may be your best and cheapest option
there are some other forums like "living in cancun" that might be able to provide more detailed information as this thread is primarily for Temptation resort and i assure you even though i have some information about this it would not be near as good as you would get from that forum hope this helps rob
Never You Should never travel alone...Make sure you come find me and the wife Always looking out for others!
Rob.. I couldn't agree more, Been going to Cancun for 15 years and never had one problem...Your much worse off getting out of a plane at Midway airport and walking around the south side of Chicago than you are walking the streets of Cancun.....lol....
Wife and I just returned march 9th we went all over by foot, by bus, during the day and night no ploblems at all. just be smart like you would in the states. I think the U.S. getting a national Health Care package is much more dangerous.:3some:
Totally agree and that media cause Canada to put up a Travel restriction and got our tickets cancel. Also since I work in a lab people got real stupid and god forbid someone coughed.......all hell would break lose and people would insist they put a mask on right now. Truth is population wise you have more chance of getting it in Canada and not in mexico.
The media is to blame but people are stupid too. When 2 Canadian's got murdered in Mexico a few years ago suddenly it was a "dangerous" place to go. When we told people we were getting married in Cancun they said "oooooo you can't go there.. they kill Canadians there" *LOL*.. seriously .. there were a lot of people that said that. One person even suggested that we switch to a cruise *L*... like I've never heard of the Titanic.
Individual people can be smart.. but the masses are stupid *L*.. the media goes a long way to making people that way. uh-oh.. the soap box just came out...... When people like Michael Moore can make a movie and it's considered the truth ...... it goes to show how gullable we all are. But it's because there is money to be made by sensationalizing every little thing. If everyone is watching CNN they can charge more for commercial time. ~stepping off soap box~ sorry .... it just kinda came over me.
