@acodjoe23 well if you don`t have much money ask for ADO Buses on airport over 60 or 65 pesos ( 7 US dollars ) It`s more cheap than airport shuttle service (20 to 50 US dollar)
Please don't be paranoid, folks. I've been to the Yucatan three times in the last three years and I have yet to get a bad look, let alone anything dangerous. It is the safest part of Mexico and the people are kind, warm and very friendly. The crime is virtually non-existent. Any hint of violence gets blown out of proportion. If you want crime and violence you will find it just like anywhere else. If you want serenity and great food, this is your place.
People! please don't let television and news fool you! of course we have some crime in Mexico and there are some dangerous places, but that's mostly in the north of the country, most of the time news talks about Juarez for example.. that's 3500 km away from Cancun or Playa del Carmen, it's like crossing Europe! nothing is happening down there.. feel safe to come, you're very welcome!
I stayed at the reef playa car oh man i feel bad inside looking back at how much fun that was i wish i could go for longer next time i got back lile a month ago the staff there is amazing
Yay I have been and enjoyed every moment, If anyone has a chance go to Tulum also "La Conchita" is paradise on earth. Thanx for the post ,Best memories !
Money to take------ Mexican peso or US dollars, There are banks and ATM Bank machines all over so I just use my bank card for money withdrawal, ---most run the cirrus network (Logo on back of your Credit cards and bank cards--says cirrus in 2 circles), check with your bank to see if your card is allowed to be used in mexico--- mine had to be switched to international usage. then use a bank ATM over a insta bank (More regulated and secure) ,
@sparklegirlzxo most week is gonna be sunny,maybe onw or two days it might rain but seems pretty great all weekend :P i'm checking weather too 'cuz i'm going this sunday
its simple your on a vacation and the people who live there are fucking starving and you the tourist better be damn well aware in mehico they will rob you blind and dont drink the water lol hot dog=7 bucks hamburger 9 bucks cold soda pop 5 bucks
im also mexican its usually scary in chihuahua up in the north thats where my fanily lives and crine is bad yes but i also went to puerto vallarta in rhe night stay around the resort and day time just gow where the crowds are you will be safe i recomend puerto vallarta the night life is amazing clubs parties lighrs dancing outside i loved it and im going soon to playa del carmen if possible if not toronto
I have been there twice. And never have I felt completely safer. The Mexican people are warm and welcoming. Please remember, the bad stuff is at the border where the drugs are going in and out of. I understand if you had children the concern, but really it is quite safe. The whole country should not be penalized for what is going on up at the border.
Playa and all of Quintana Roo is safe if you stay with tourist attractions and don't attract attention. You can rent a Vochito in Cancun and drive all the way to Akumal, Tulum or even to Chetumal on # 307. Don't look anything but your basic tourista and you will be fine. Use a cajero automático (ATM) in a large supermercado (Cancun or Playa) and they will debit your bank account and give you pesos at the most favorable exchange rate. Pesos are better than dollars in Mexico.
To all who are wondering about Mexico, I vacation there all the time. I love Playa as diving is number one and the people are very nice. Remember there is crime in every town even in the one you are leaving. I have never once felt nervous of feared for my safety in Mexico. I highly recommend going and just have fun, relax it is a vacation. If you spend your life worrying about what can or might happen then life will pass you by.
DONT WORRY FOR WHT YOU HEAR ON THE MEDIA..IM MEXICAN & LET ME TELL YOU THIS: the crime is a reallity, but is happening only with people involved in drug traffic, so if you are not dealinf with drugs you dont have to be scared, DRUG CARTELS NEVER MESS WITH CIVILIANS! AND THEY OPERATE MOSTLY IN BORDER CITYES SUCH CIUDAD JUARES OR MATAMOROS, VEVER GO TO THOSE CITIES,.....REST OF MEXICO IS STILL PEACEFULL AND SAFE ;)
@renvogt i went to Playa Del Carmen, and i got into a conversation with local and he said timidly if you wanna find trouble you can, but if you dont you wont!!... then i said its just like where im from. but not only that but every other city
@mbolzicco awesome.. beats flakey london dealers.. Il get my tickets booked.. you see to some people getting high is fun... and a worth while past time !
I went there many years Ago and its feel Rare se no te sientes En México por que ves a pura gente hablando Ingles en el hotel un gran turismo que estuvo eramos los unicos Méxicanos en el hotel puro Gringo Frances Italiano pero lo mejor es que las chavas estaba en top puras mamacitas y la mayoria del tiempo estuvo en la playa disdrutando el paisaje tenia cmo 8 años y ya me exsitaba viendo viejas sin brasier
Tanto Playa del Carmen, como Cozumel o Cancún tienen excelentes paisajes y unas playas maravillosas, yo he tenido la oportunidad de conocer toda esta zona y he regresado fascinada. Además la diversión nunca termina
todo muy bonito yo estube en cozumel en un crucero pero todo muy caro y la comida muy americanisada tipo tacobell..un pinche guacamole hecho quisas de 1 aguacate con 10 totopos 6 dolares , pero ni en la usa esta asi de caro.

Was at Playa Del Carmen several years ago. LOVELY! Friendly! Just don't be an "Ugly American" and treat people rudely. The Mexicans are a beautiful caring people and seem to really really like us. This year we're off the Isla Mujeres off the coast of Cancun. Mexico is my destination of choice! (j from outside Phila.)
@JCVdude I currently live in playa del carmen, and i can assure you it's one of the safest places in all Mexico and even America, most of the media saying there are day light shooting is just for attention, THERE IS drugs in playa del carmen, as in other parts of the world, but as long as you stay safe and away from dangerous places you will be all right!! if you still feel insecure about visiting playa, then go to a little town called Puerto Aventuras, you will know what's heaven on earth!!!
@fablelink4 I envy you ...I Have been to Playa multiple times and every time I wanted to stay there. Of course it has been years since I last went, but Once I get a chance, I will be going there again. For all the people that worry about what is going on. Just do get involved with the wrong crowd and you will be safe and okay.
no not at all sometimes is usd sometimes is pesos, all trasportation like taxis in pesos for shopping is difficulto to know becasue it depends if the price is post in pesos in dollars, what I recommend is change dollars to pesos just for taxis and everything elese in dollars, check my video playadelcarmentips m a local xpert

I LOVE MEXICO. I don't care what anyone says. I've been three times. One of those times we spent five weeks travelling up the pacific coast and had a blast and never felt in danger. The first 2 times I didn't know ANY spanish. I have always had good experiences there. Mexico has a special place in my heart!!
I'm going next week and i'm honestly still nervous about going. I will be aware of my surroundings and never go anywhere alone. My parent' paranoia is starting to get to me. Thanks for making this video though, it's made me more excited about going!
@stop08it Your welcome! It's common sense really. Even where we live, there's places we won't go either alone or together carrying expensive camera equipment or wearing lots of bling. Have lots of fun! You're going to LOVE it!
@stop08it When i was there at night you should get more precaution but nowadays anywhere in the world you have to be carefull about your own stuff and you. Mexico is no exception.
@stop08it so how was mexico dude? did you feel unsafe at anytime? i was planning on going but im a bit scared now , especially for taking my kids with me. i might settle for aruba instead
mi tierra querida como quisiera regresar pronto ojala que mis planes para este ano se haga realidad y ahi estare.saludos a todos los de la nueva creacion y la nicteha a mis compas charmin,el pelon roman cristo y a carlos mora .
i was in cancun in july and i seriously cannot get that place out of my head. i get sad when i think about it coz i wanna go back sooo bad. i seriously had the best time of my life! its so beautiful!
Maple Ridge for one year (actually in Whonnock), and in a place called Fairview Hill in the city for another year working in Commercial Drive, the best two years of my life! People in Maple Ridge: Incredibly nice folks!!! And amazing scenaries and canyons. Playa, unfortunately is pretty sold out although, it´s still fun to visit, everybody has a great time.
I was there in April....I have no words to say how I was in that days....I was so sad to return home...and as I was watching this videom the guitar song nearly makes me cry! Mexico in my heart
Man i loved walking down 5th Ave. If you like "trees" you will find it there along with other thins too. But senor frogs is a rip off but you always have to go there. When your there say hi to the shiny silver guy on a bike
I was there in early June and had a wonderful, beautiful, happy time. We went everywhere and did everything with no problems. They said there are fewer tourists this year, which actually made it even more enjoyable.
i was there and i going back it is the best place and verry nice people. only one thing is bad there and that is a lot of americans i hate that kind of people ...
the world is great whit only mexicans and people from holland. we take mexico to europe. adios amigo's
shit i live in orlando, fl... we're number one in crime!!!! poverty is a global problem not just in mexico, colombia, venezuela or any other country in the world. but americans are too far up their asses that they don't want to admit their country can be shitty too!!!
@elguero121587 I agree! many americans ruin ir for the rest of us that are not assholes!!!!! I love playa! There is bad everywhere! Playa is safer than many of the places in my own state!!!
i dont thik so playa del carmer is safer than cancun. i live here and there is no problems with carters. this problem in other parts of my country but not in Playa. Dont be afraid to came here
just got back from cozumel and stayed the night in playa del carmen. i was out at night and even shopped at night...there is no crime. the only crime thats on TV is in the border towns. i read a comment not to look in people's eyes...whatever! i think thats rude...people were friendly..but they do raise the price on items...i would def go back but maybe to another place in mexico to try something diff....
yes, let me be responsible...im sure there is crime...i just never witnessed it.....my friend was robbed at knife point in westend england....now ive heard a lot of crime there..lol
i got back from here on thursday i stayed in the hotel rui tequila. This is a beatuiful place the people are so friendly and people who say there is crime i never heard of any crimes while i was there everyone i talked to felt safe and welcomed.
as i am writing this i am about to leave playa del carmen. THs town sucks it has no character and it is mostly tourists shops and fat stupid american tourists who need to learn a thing or two about how rich mexico is it. This country is an important part of the world economy and its GDP (PPP) is 1.555 trl. No poor nation has figures like that. If you want a beautiful town go see volladolid or campeche.
I am leaving to Playa del carmen in 6 days and I have to say that I have begun to worry. We land in Cancun Airport and I have heard about so much crime, we can't back out now because its too late. I need some advice.
Seriously? Playa is very safe. Cancun is too, from what I hear. Just don't go to the non-touristy back streets at the dead of night and don't piss in public. Oh yea, don't have sex on the beach and you'll be good.
we read this advise before flying into cancun: make no eye contact, don't let anyone grab your luggage, keep walking. a bus like we found helpful is ADO, (pronounced ah-de-oh), and its not so bad, just be smart. and playa is beautiful! enjoy!
Don't worry. Most of the crime is in cities right across the border. I was in Playa del Carmen in december it was awesome. Trust if you take the time to get to know locals you will fall in love with Mexico. I am going back this summer.
just dont wear expensive chains or walk with the money on da hand, even on the us or europe its lil dangerous, i supouse u been there, Just let us Know how it was.
Looks beautiful! I'm going there this summer, it will be my first time outside the US. I can't wait! And what the hell was the first song?! It cracked me up. XD
What beautiful music and place. I may go there some day. But first I have to explore my own country. There is just so much up here in Canada to see first.
Nice video. If you want to see some action videos and more up to date of Playa Del Carmen check out our site!

Playa and all of Quintana Roo is safe if you stay with tourist attractions and don't attract attention. You can rent a Vochito in Cancun and drive all the way to Akumal, Tulum or even to Chetumal on # 307. Don't look anything but your basic tourista and you will be fine. Use a cajero automático (ATM) in a large supermercado (Cancun or Playa) and they will debit your bank account and give you pesos at the most favorable exchange rate. Pesos are better than dollars in Mexico.

Nice, I live in BC. Would love a house around Playa one day. Or around Tulum. Playa's atmosphere is unreal though. Where did you live in BC?
GreasyComplection 2 years ago
Maple Ridge for one year (actually in Whonnock), and in a place called Fairview Hill in the city for another year working in Commercial Drive, the best two years of my life! People in Maple Ridge: Incredibly nice folks!!! And amazing scenaries and canyons. Playa, unfortunately is pretty sold out although, it´s still fun to visit, everybody has a great time.

Yeah, I would expect nothing less given the place that it is. Nice to hear about your experience here in BC my friend

Man i loved walking down 5th Ave. If you like "trees" you will find it there along with other thins too. But senor frogs is a rip off but you always have to go there. When your there say hi to the shiny silver guy on a bike

I was there in early June and had a wonderful, beautiful, happy time. We went everywhere and did everything with no problems. They said there are fewer tourists this year, which actually made it even more enjoyable.

shit i live in orlando, fl... we're number one in crime!!!! poverty is a global problem not just in mexico, colombia, venezuela or any other country in the world. but americans are too far up their asses that they don't want to admit their country can be shitty too!!!

@elguero121587 I agree! many americans ruin ir for the rest of us that are not assholes!!!!! I love playa! There is bad everywhere! Playa is safer than many of the places in my own state!!!

just got back from cozumel and stayed the night in playa del carmen. i was out at night and even shopped at night...there is no crime. the only crime thats on TV is in the border towns. i read a comment not to look in people's eyes...whatever! i think thats rude...people were friendly..but they do raise the price on items...i would def go back but maybe to another place in mexico to try something diff....

as i am writing this i am about to leave playa del carmen. THs town sucks it has no character and it is mostly tourists shops and fat stupid american tourists who need to learn a thing or two about how rich mexico is it. This country is an important part of the world economy and its GDP (PPP) is 1.555 trl. No poor nation has figures like that. If you want a beautiful town go see volladolid or campeche.

I am leaving to Playa del carmen in 6 days and I have to say that I have begun to worry. We land in Cancun Airport and I have heard about so much crime, we can't back out now because its too late. I need some advice.

dont worry ill be all right
jose234517 2 years ago
Seriously? Playa is very safe. Cancun is too, from what I hear. Just don't go to the non-touristy back streets at the dead of night and don't piss in public. Oh yea, don't have sex on the beach and you'll be good.
y0utube11111 2 years ago
we read this advise before flying into cancun: make no eye contact, don't let anyone grab your luggage, keep walking. a bus like we found helpful is ADO, (pronounced ah-de-oh), and its not so bad, just be smart. and playa is beautiful! enjoy!

Don't worry. Most of the crime is in cities right across the border. I was in Playa del Carmen in december it was awesome. Trust if you take the time to get to know locals you will fall in love with Mexico. I am going back this summer.
