Keep dreaming!

Thank you! I did!

Viva Mexico!

😃😃😃😃

Thanks - I always use the "taxi autorizado" at the airport or bus station when I arrive at a certain location. So far, so good... Not too many problems.

Or Uber! Uber is the better option talking about private services.

Thank you!

Thank you! I hope you can travel soon!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!

The free big green bus goes to all terminals (meaning 2, 3 and 4) so look for the Tren Maya signs outside each terminal. The bus then goes straight to the Tren Maya station. It doesn't run all day but rather runs when there's a train coming or going. The schedule will be on the sign boards outside the Airport Terminal. There is also an ADO bus from Cancun main bus station that goes to the Tren Maya station (but does not go to the airport) that costs about 130 pesos. There is no First Class lounge for Clase Premier passengers at the Cancun Tren Maya station or in fact any lounge, it's an odd station with a giant roof and platforms under it. Don't think of Clase Premier as a luxury experience, it's a nicer experience, I recommend it but it's not luxury.

Thank you!

Yes, good point and the gov has so many projects happening to connect the stations with airports and the center. Hope Cancun is one of those. I'm sorry that happened to you 😢

Thanks! Maybe, but like I said, I saw lots of people being turned away because there were not tickets to be had at the last minute.

😃😃😃😃

De nada!

Yes but there are many people who benefit from all the delays. The more time they can hold a project the more money they make, unfortunately. 😢

I keep telling people that Merida is the next Dubai. Mark my words!

@@TheGrroovyGuru I hope not, that would be devastating for the environment. I like Mexico as it is: a middle income country. The cost of living is still affordable, and except for the narco issue, the rest is fine.

@@user-wo8ui3bz7v That's your desire. But mexicans aspire prosperity to our country. We deserve it and our government knows that and is doing their best.

@@user-wo8ui3bz7vWith all due respect, It’s not your country. So please stop giving your opinion about what you want or not. Worry about your own country and fight for it!

Yes, you can

Hi! Yes, you can, but sometimes the trains are already sold out, so you might not be able to get tickets at the last minute. It's best to get them in advance.

Yes you can. He said it’s best to buy them on line because you might not get one.

You ain't gonna like it!

That's funny 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

Yes, I did mention that. It's included in the premier class tickets!

@@daviddomine4889 good to know, guess i missed that as did others apparently.

If you purchase things from the bar, that is a separate cost.

With Mexican Residency you will get Local prize

Don't get stucked in the jungle, use a bus, is faster.

Hi - No, Mexican nationals pay less than the "tourist" rate. About 25-30% less is what I noticed.

El es 🇺🇸👹 parte de los oppositores. El Enemigo 👹🇺🇸

AMLO is almost done. Is Mexico corrupt - yes; is Mexico lawless - yes; is Mexico poor - yes; is AMLO El Chapo’s employee - yes; does Mexico have functioning law enforcement or legal systems - no! AMLO has done nothing for Mexico - his Mayan train is a waste of money and he flushed millions in USD down the toilet with the CDMX airport fiasco. Educate yourself!

Bueno, gracias por el comentario. De veras, he escuchado mucho en cuanto a la política, pero puesto que no soy mexicano no quise meterme en cosas que no entiendo bien. Mi intención fue nada más que compartir mi experiencia como turista extranjero que tiene mucha admiración por Mexico y los mexicanos.

​@@daviddomine4889 I think she was commenting to someone else. You're video was informative & objective. Thanks ❤

@@samsongomah1318Educate you before posting a lies, AMLO has made more good things than other last 6 presidents that open the door to corruption, crime , guns etc. 😮

Mexican nationals pay about 25-30% less than "extranjeros."

It’s affordable for locals, actually it’s like more than half the price cheaper for locals.

96% of the 250,000 people that have ridden it have been Mexican. It's not common to see foreigners on it at this time although that may change in the future.

there will be buses coming and going from each station to city centers or to the airport. for free and from the tren maya aswell

@@Deutschland8894 Yes, there are electric buses and shuttles at many of the stations, but I had to pay for the ones I used, like in Mérida.

The taxis are tightly controlled and a huge rip off; no ubers are allowed in cancun airport.

Yes, but technically no according to the ticket info. I've not had problem bringing my own food and a lot of other people do bring it on.

@@GrantMcWilliams Can I bring my chickens?

@@JuanSanchez-ik7wx Not unless they're seeing-eye chickens. :-)

@@GrantMcWilliams How do they expect this to be adopted by the locals if they cant bring their chickens and goats!

@@JuanSanchez-ik7wx I don't know of anyone with chickens and goats in Mexico. I do know people in the US with chickens and goats though. I don't think they'd be able to bring them on the plane so it's not an issue.

Choose seats facing forward. The website shows you the direction of travel allowing you to get the right seat. Book as early as you can for more choice.

@@GrantMcWilliams the train never turns around. The is a driver seat on both ends of the train. So either eastward or westward will always be riding backwards.

@@JuanSanchez-ik7wx Of course, as I said - "The website shows you the direction of travel allowing you to get the right seat. Book as early as you can for more choice."

@@GrantMcWilliams you still dont get it. Ask your mother to explain it to you.

@@JuanSanchez-ik7wx It's very, very simple. When you buy your ticket, the website tells you which direction the seat is facing. If you want to face forward, buy a forward facing ticket. Have you ever been on a train before?

Jajaja...Si costó y muchooo pero usted que puede saber

@@mrc2745 Más que usted.

Not sure what you're talking about. Just checked and prices look accurate to me?

Because it was nowhere near finished, and it was opened anyway because that's what AMLO wanted.

Who told you that?, that train travel 120-150 km/hr

@@ivansanchez8458 my brother took it. i used his phone to measure the speed. that was also going about 20mph when it derliaed this past week. what is your experience?

Cancun to Merida bus: 5-6 hrs train;3.5 Hrs.@@theTimHernandez

Ojalá nunca vengas si tienes esa actitud.

Entonces viajas a diario en el tren??

@@AngelaGarcia-cu7td no, el es el limpia pisos en la estación.

Anti AMLO detected. This project will be finished by August and Restaurant train plus Dormitory train will join too. Absolutely amazing project that develops the south of Mexico. 🇲🇽

👉Now say all that without crying 😭

Brightline in Florida? Of course it can't compare to El Tren Maya. It is tantamount to remarking that Texan Oil Refineries are way superb than Dos Bocas. Why? Because they ( Brightline and/ or Dos Bocas) are not constantly being sabotaged or incessantly attacked ( literally) by the Mexican government. If we Mexicans did this, rest assured USA 👹 would have declared war on us. Again, this shows us that USA will always keep us beaneath them so that we could never ascend to the pinnacle of superiority. We will always be inferior Mexicans.

¿Huele a ardido que lo obligaron a pagar impuestos o que se quedó sin hueso y por eso está despotricando?👀 Good for you stay in Florida, en México ya somos muchos y entre menos burros más olotes.🙂

@@Karlaitzell94Too bad the Mayan train won’t cure corruption in Mexico. Too bad the Mayan train won’t give Mexico a functioning legal or law enforcement system. Too bad the Mayan train won’t help the millions of Mexicans living under narco control. Too bad AMLO is a failure.

So not true! Sorry to disappoint you, but I met scores of travelers on the Tren Maya, and most of them were Mexican nationals who were extremely excited to be on the train. (I didn't meet a single KZfaqr, by the way.) Yes, it is incomplete (as they themselves disclose) but, as I mention in the video, only one of the more than a dozen trips I booked had issues. All of the others departed on time and without problem.

@@daviddomine4889 You're not dissappointing me at all,your answer is so predictable. But thefact is that the train is not complete and is useless.

@@user-io5sz1ye4d Nobody says it is complete. The Tren Maya itself says this on the website. The Cancun-Palenque route is open and functioning, albeit not without problems. This is coming from someone who actually traveled the entire route, two times. Cancun to Palenque and back, twice. With various stops and layovers that included Valladolid, Izamal, Chichen Itza, Merida, and Campeche. Believe what you will.

​@@thebluegrasspeasant2427 that dude probably has never traveled on it and probably will never. That kind of people are never pleased with anything, you cannot convince them even with facts.

@@thebluegrasspeasant2427 In deed you are promoting a Fraud.

Riding in the back of a dump truck may be cheaper and more frequent too but that doesn't mean you will like it. The Tren Maya takes 5 hrs 47 minutes to get from Campeche to Cancun and costs 776 pesos for local turista class. There are no nice ADO buses between those cities so the ADO GL is the best that you can get and it takes 6 hrs and 35 minutes and costs 913 pesos. It takes another hour, is more cramped, the ride is bad, you can't get up and move for almost 7 hour and it costs more and there's only 2 ADO GLs per day just like the train. If you are really desperate you can take a basic ADO bus or god forbid an OCC bus and pay anywhere from 522 pesos to over 1000 and be crammed on like sardines. Yes, there are more buses per day than trains so enjoy being crammed into a bus for almost 7 hours without a break. At least that way you don't have to admit that the train has been a roaring success. Eventually the only buses left will be second class busses at which point you will quietly be taking the train pretending like you were never against it.

@@GrantMcWilliams Tell you what. Today, 3 Aug 2024, Tren Maya (TM) ridership will never be able to sustain the current operating cost. Certainly, your descriptions of ADO are somewhat accurate. My basic criticism is the TM funds could have been better spent on basic infrastructure for MX. TM stations are inconvenient. Some locals, the taxi drivers don't know the location of the stations. The overwhelmingly foreign tourist come to the Riviera Maya for sand and sun...not to trek through jungle and dust to view dusty relics. The local populace...that's like asking a New Yorker when they last visited 🗽 Sorry, TM is going to become a local commuter line. As long as ATS/SUR/ combis operate MX will take the less expensive alternative. The hotels/tour operators in Cancun/ Playa del Carmen/Tulum will arrange more convenient tours. AMLO envisioning freight traffic for TM...from where to where? How much to create the infra structure. But, come December 2024, a big financial surprise worldwide. Those entities dependent on foreign tourist dollars are in for a rude awakening. Unfortunately, the TM is a train to no where.

@@firstlast1047 96% of the 268,000 people that have taken the train have been Mexican. Only 4% have been foreigners. As for your opinion on what the funds should have been used for it doesn't matter. This is Mexico, this train is paid for by Mexicans and it's an improvement to their country. It's their own infrastructure so you don't get to decide what they should be using their money on. By the way, just out of curiosity, how many times have you taken the Tren Maya?

@@GrantMcWilliams Haven't taken it. The schedule is inconvenient for me to catch flights in Cancun. Only two trains a day from Campeche. It would entail a hotel. Plus my class of ticket...I have to go to train station. What's the improvement?? A train for foreign gringo's? AMLO is so desperate to have this project finished before his term ends. I noticed an uptick of engineering delays,construction accidents. Payroll missed. Oh and the peso is taking a big hit. Oh, it's MX money. I got a vested interest. Seventeen years a Campechano medio. LOL

​@@firstlast1047 Why would you need to go to the station to buy your train ticket? It's becoming obvious that you don't know anything about the train and haven't even attempted to learn. The passengers so far have been 96% Mexican, as in real Mexican, not gringo for 17 years.

We don’t need people like you that don’t want other countries to improve their infrastructure. Do you still want us in horses? I’m pretty sure you use your trains wherever you’re from.

@@lucywisinski8732@dixieboy5688 is a gringo, the irony of criticizing Mexico when his country is full of homeless and addicts, and you can get shot anywhere anytime because of their love for guns. VIVA MÉXICO!

@@hmgbirdYes, unfortunately Mexico pays the price for their addiction and love of guns. Cartels are thriving thanks to them! Viva 🇲🇽
