Bahia principe grand coba - airport transportation? Tours?

Would like to know the best transport to get to the bahia coba? The hotel offers a shared one but i fear it will make many stops and take us forever to get there.

I saw a couple private shuttles. Cheapest I’ve found is $149 round trip for two adults with cancunairporttransportstions.com

Anyone know about this company?

Also i want a guided tour of tulum ruins that also allows enough free time to swim on the beach…and also a cenote. Anyone have a good recommendation? Or should we do it on our own and take the collectivo?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Shared means more people , there should not be lots of stops.

Personally I’d take the free one.

Google top ten things to do and check reviews on Tripadvisor

Check the FAQ on the right hand side of this forum

You can do ruins on your own much cheaper unless you want an organise tour , you have lots of options with some research you can find what suits

The one from bahia is not free but a bit cheaper at $108 round trip for 2 adults…a bit cheaper than the private transfer i found

Didnt know if anyone has experience with it before if it takes long stops at the other bahia properties

Private Transfers are often asked here.

Trusted ones are Canada, USA, CARM, Happy Shuttle and many more.

I prefer Cancun Relaible trasnfers.

Most are 150-180 round trip.
