Transportation

Toll Roads:

Highway 18 from Mérida becomes the 180 toll road, also called a cuota or carretera de cobro, going east to Cancún. This four-lane speedway is by far the fastest route to Cancún. Using it, you can avoid 146 topes and 43 villages. Along the way, you will encounter toll booths or casetas de cobro. Expect to pay $355 pesos between Mérida and Cancún. Have pesos in hand because the exchange rates at the toll booths are less than generous.
