Easy to get your tickets and paperless. Staff doesn't speak English. It's okay, but it makes it a little harder to communicate. Driver was super good. Really professional.

The ADO bus service is excellent. Clean, comfortable & on time. Even your luggage placed in the under carriage is tagged to ensure it is returned at journey’s end.
ADO Platino receives high praise for its comfortable and spacious seating, courteous staff, and clean facilities. Many users appreciate the reclining seats, ample legroom, onboard entertainment options with free earphones, and modern amenities like air conditioning.

Very comfortable seats and a smooth ride. No option to change the screen sound to English though. Also, when we bought the tickets, it said snacks would be provided. None were provided.

Bus ride was comfortable as usual but driver missed a turn near Cancun; went several kms before finding place to turn around. Had to use short stretch of private road to rejoin main road. Arrived 30 min. late.

It was a good trip. Was expecting a full size ADO bus but it turned out we were in a small mini-bus style (16 seats). It was reasonably comfortable. We would take the bus again.
