Transportation

 

IEF 2008 does not provide transportation service to participants. However, at the airport there is a taxi stand with safe and comfortable vehicles. The cost from the airport to the venue hotels ranges from USD$18 to USD$20. Tel. 946-1529

Conversely, the cost of taxis from the hotels to the airport is much cheaper. It ranges between USD$7 and UD$8. The reason for this is that at the airport there is only one Taxi Company certified to provide the service. This results in higher costs.

For use of taxis in Mérida, the most trustworthy companies with comfortable red and white vehicles are:

  • ECONOTAXI: 945-0000
  • PROMOTAXI 920-7998
  • FUTV-SITIO 14: 928-5600

Below is a list of approximate taxi fares in Mexican Pesos:

  • Downtown – MXP $30
  • ADO Bus station – MSP $40
  • Airport – MXP $80
  • Gran Plaza – MXP $50
  • Hípico – MXP $80
  • Club de Golf – MXP $100
  • Port of Progreso – MXP $250
