Travel time/options for day trip to Uxmal ruins?
Friday, December 26th, 2008jillshines asked:
I’m taking a cruise that stops in Progreso/Merida, Mexico, and one of the shore excursions goes to Uxmal. It says the travel time is 2.5 hours (each way!), but from what I’ve read, that’s longer than it should be. Then you’re there for 1.5 hours - 5 hours of driving for an hour of exploring seems silly. How long is the drive from Progreso to the Uxmal ruins? Would it be better for me to find an outside tour?
