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." Have pesos in hand because the exchange rates at the toll booths are less than generous. There is also a toll road to Playa del Carmen.
Exact tolls are:
- Mérida to Chichén Itzá - $129 pesos
- Mérida to Valladolid - $223 pesos
- Chichén Itzá to Valladolid - $94 pesos
- Valladolid to Cancún - $385 pesos
- Mérida to Cancún - $609 pesos
