Question 4

Accepted Answer

If you're here to attend a conference, you'll find Cancun Convention Center 5 miles from Cancun. During one of the breaks, make your way to a nearby café to snatch a moment to yourself — networking and socializing can be quite exhausting.

Question 5

What kind of rental car should I get for Cancun?

Accepted Answer

Sure, you can do Cancun without renting a vehicle. But with loads to check out here, having one would definitely make your getaway more fun and convenient. If you're eager to get out of the city and into nature, pick a car rental with a bit of power. A larger car like an SUV will get you to the area's coral reefs in roomy comfort. Spending most of your escape in the city center? An economical, small car will be your best bet. Maneuvering through narrow lanes and squeezing into tight parking spots will be a lot less stressful in one of these.

Question 6

Should I get a luxury rental car in Cancun?

Accepted Answer

You'll be pleased to hear that there's a great range of both economy and high-end rental vehicles on offer in Cancun. What you end up opting for will depend on how much you want to spend and what you plan to do. Specialty and prestige vehicles often spare no expense when it comes to comfort and class. If you're splashing out, why not pick an SUV with all the bells and whistles, or perhaps an upmarket mid-sized sedan? On the other hand, if you're just after a set of wheels to whiz around town in as efficiently as possible, maybe go for an economy compact vehicle (or something else that won't blow your budget).

Question 7

Is it difficult to park in Cancun?

Accepted Answer

Finding a place to leave the car in Cancun is a cinch. You won't have to circle the block in dense traffic here — and that's what the locals love about it. There's plenty of on and off-street parking available.
