HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO GO TO MERIDIA BY CAB OR THROUGH CARNIVAL EXCURIONS. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MERIDIA. HOW FAR FROM BEACHES?

We rented a cab with another family for $90. It was about 30 minutes from the pier. You may need a translator to help you make the plans before you depart. The driver dropped us off where he was able to park and wait. We did a little shopping. Prices are better in Progresso. We visited a 500 year old cathedral. We checked out the government building which has paintings by a famous Mexican painter named Diego Rivera. I bought a hammock for $25. The driver took us back to the beach by the pier after about 2 hours as we had planned.

We took the public bus and rode with the locals. It was entertaining and cost us like 10 bucks a head. Very little english is spoken in the city so it was fun. We got some great deals since this is a simple city where the locals live and shop. Mind you, it is a city and not a town. Seeing old men sit in the town square playing games and talking was so nice.......definitly not your regular cruise excursion.
