vacation to the fullest by doing proper research on Cancun
as travel mishaps often lead to waste of money and time and
missed opportunities without further Ado here are the top
10 don'ts of Cancun Mexico.
Let's get started number 10 taking a taxi at the airport
simple ride worth a few dollars with a bus can turn into
a 70 to 80 dollar ride with a taxi.
If a traveler isn't careful.
This can be the reality of a Cancun trip drivers.
Rarely have a flat fee or taxi meter like in most taxis.
If a traveler does plan on taking a cab he or she needs to
be sure to ask for the price before the ride begins in most
cases. A traveler should not accept the first fee offered
Cancun drivers are usually open to dropping a price a traveler
can easily save a couple of dollars just by negotiating in
a different price most Resorts and hotels offer shuttle buses
around town and two major tourist sites including rides from
and to the airport number 9.
Don't forget sunscreen.
The sun is nothing to mess with you around in Cancun.
Even in the winter months.
The sun is strong enough to cause a severe burn take extra
precaution during May through September and don't spend more
than a few hours at a time by the pool use very high SPF
sunscreen and reapply often if you can purchase biodegradable
sunblock, which is environmentally friendly number eight
drinking water from the tap steer clear of the tap water
at all costs.
In Mexico drinking from the tap can make you very sick
indeed all hotels in Cancun have free bottled water.
But if you're on an Excursion and enjoying a meal in a remote
rural location, it's best to check that salads are not washed
under the tap and all ice cubes are made from bottled water.
Make sure to fill up on water during a trip under the Rays
for an entire day hydration becomes a vital key for a traveler's
well-being. However, make sure that water sources come from
a sealed bottle of water provided in the room.
There really is no reason to purchase bottled water unless
a traveler is out for the day and away from the hotel room.
Even if that is the case a traveler can easily bring the
water bottle provided in the room when it comes to Resort
mini fridges the staff makes it a priority to fill it up
regularly with an endless supply of water and other beverages
when going on a Cancun all-inclusive vacation, everything
is included which means endless water and all other beverages
you'd like to have from cocktails juices sodas to alcohol
number 7. Buying everything at the listed price we discussed
this earlier in the video saying yes to the first price can
be a mistake for those Travelers that plan on saving a buck
or two negotiating on a price with a Salesman can be easily
done always negotiate the price because various Merchants
sell their goods on the beach in lots of cases a traveler
can get a good deal for the souvenir.
He wants by negotiating the same can take place in a souvenir
shop outside of the resort.
Now, the resort itself usually has set prices.
However, a traveler can definitely debate a price in the
city never agreed to the first price.
There's always room for negotiation number 6 exchanging money
at the airport.
We briefly touched upon this one earlier in the video.
The accepted currency in Cancun Mexico is both pesos and
US currency.
Don't leave the exchange till the last minute Cancun hotels
and airports offer a poor exchange rate a traveler might
lose out on lots of extra money by making the exchange at
the airport or hotel or any Tourist location in the hotel zone
of Cancun instead.
It is important to change the money ahead of time whether
a traveler converts to pesos or us money and exchange rate
at a local exchange shop or bank can make all the differences
in some extra dollars being spent there truly is no point
in doing otherwise number 5 don't get flustered at the airport.
First time travelers booking a Cancun trip might get overwhelmed
at the very start of the experience.
Lots of Travelers tend to get flustered after claiming there.
Bags, the airport is filled with representatives from different
companies trying to sell timeshare presentations insuranceses
rented Vehicles excursions expensive taxi rides and so
much more.
This can make the experience a stressful one early on however
it is so easy to avoid all the hassle by simply saying no
gracias a traveler can move freely on to the outside of the
airport it is there where shuttles from the hotel's await
The Travelers a worker is usually on site ready.
With your name written down and ready to tell you which bus
you belong on which will take you straight to your hotel.
You'll be on your way to the resort in no time following
this easy tactic number 4 booking tours from Standalone
tour guides when visiting Cancun this is one of the biggest
things to avoid Travelers have been caught in various scams
over the years locals might learn a traveler into booking
an Excursion at an excellent rate.
The only problem is once the time comes to meet up the representative
is nowhere.
to be found this happens quite often.
It can also turn into a not so safe experience by trusting
someone off the resort with hardly any credentials make sure
you choose a tour with a reputable company by doing plenty
of research online to avoid a disappointing trip number three
visiting in high saeson the best time to visit Cancun is usually
between January through May when hotel prices are low and
Crowds Are manageable not only is the city much more enjoyable,
but will make a huge difference on your travel budget and
the climate is the mildest not too extreme hot and humid
tours are about half the price of rates offered during High
season and food in general is also much more affordable avoid
visiting during Christmas New Year's and especially spring break
as these are the most hectic travel periods for Cancun
if possible.
Avoid Mexico's hurricane season, which stretches from Late
July to late October number two don't go to the timeshare
presentations from the moment you land in pain.
Cone on your way out of the airport terminal you'll be for
sure offered special deals and prices in exchange for attending
a timeshare presentation.
They'll tell you that you only have to go for 90 minutes
and no purchase is required.
They offer you free Excursion tickets on dining tickets or
any other perk for your time.
However, they use high-pressure sales tactics and often go
on from 4, then 3 to 5 hours depending when you decide to
stand up and leave the sales room do yourself a favor stay
away from it, number one buying illegal drugs.
I know there is a percentage of people that enjoy the use
of drugs and we'll have the desire to obtain them.
While down here in Cancun most important thing to remember
on your vacation is stay away from drugs and the people pushing
them. I am telling you this for a couple of reasons, you
are a foreigner in a different country with different laws
and language the second and most important is that the Mexican
drug enforcement agency has set up sting operations in pretty
much all the hot spots were drug sales are prevalent.
Coral negro Market 28 Party Center, they are sitting there
waiting for you to buy just so they can either arrest you
or extort as much money as they can from you.
You'll be arrested and thrown in a Mexican prison and the
laws aren't the same down here.
You can't just get bailed out.
You're gonna sit in there as long as they want our until
they get what they want.
Don't take the risk of ruining your vacation or should I
say your life imagine going on vacation getting arrested
for buying drugs be being extorted for all the money you
have and then be locked up in a Mexican prison surrounded
by real criminals who you can't even understand a word.
They're saying don't use drugs in Mexico.
