ADO Chiquilá Playa del Carmen recent customer reviews

The bus driver was a tiny bit rude and wouldn't tell us if it was the right bus. But I assume he was just tired of people asking him. Other than that the ride was great. Very efficient and fast. Lots of leg room, comfy seats ect..

The seats are really comfortable. The A/C at the back of the bus didn’t work. And the next to the WC was too smelly

Lawen T.

March 20, 2024

The bus was 40 min late without notice so we arrived more than 1h late. There was a problem with the bus so all the alert light of the dashboard were one and the driver kept stopping to check stuff without being able to resolve the problem. There was a sensor that beeped for the whole 3h drive which was very disturbing as we were seated in front.
