ADO Chetumal Playa del Carmen recent customer reviews

The ADO GL was beautiful, clean,and on time - highly recommend it. The ADO normal Playa del carmen to Chetumal took longer, and not nearly as comfortable. ADO needs to update their list of times of arrivals and departures and describe the difference between the buses.
