Day 44: How to go from Holbox to Cancun - Barcelona

Today is the last day of the trip, so we will explain how to go from Holbox to Cancun, in addition to how the hours of this last day have been on Holbox Island, one of the places to visit in Mexico.
We start the day in a somewhat sad way, just like the weather on the island of Holbox, which seems to want to show its sadness when it is time to end this trip to Mexico for free, saying goodbye with a gray and cloudy sky.
It's a few minutes to 7:30 in the morning when we sit at the Holbox Dream Beachfront Beach Club Holbox Dream Beachfront by Xperience Hotels, which has been our accommodation in Holbox this last week, for breakfast, charging energy and working during a while, when it's a little after 9, check out, saying goodbye to one of the world's paradises.


Directly from the reception of the Holbox Dream Beach Hotel they ask us for a taxi, a golf cart, like the one that brought us here days ago, which for 30 pesos leaves us in the ferry area, the only way to get to and from the island , as we told in the post of the tips and what to see and do in Holbox.
We arrive at the jetty area when it is 9:45, so we are on time to catch the 5 Brothers ferry that leaves at 10 and on time, under a threatening sky, we start the way back, to go from Holbox to Cancun, returning to Chiquilá, after a journey of 40 minutes, return to be on the mainland, where we return to travel the 100 meters that separate us from the parking lot of Chiquilá where 7 days ago we left our rental car in Mexico.

Saying goodbye to Holbox

Our flight back to Spain leaves today at 8 pm from Cancun, so the idea is to spend a few hours there, in the most tourist area, and thus be able to know at least a little of what they say, is one of the most tourist places in the country, take the opportunity to eat there and then go directly to the airport.
So when it's 11, we head to Cancun from Chiquilá, from where we have 150 kilometers and 1: 45h of travel, which we also take to fill the deposit with 300 pesos to reach Cancun and return the car with a deposit room, as we picked it up, several weeks ago in Campeche.

These minutes on the road do not stop reminding us of the incredible journey we have had the opportunity to live for a month and a half, also reminding us, how incredibly fortunate we are to be able to live as we live and devote ourselves to what we are passionate about, something that we do not We will never repeat.
We arrived at Kukulkan Boulevard in Cancun shortly before 2 p.m., finding a two-lane highway with mega hotels on the sides that remind us in some way to Las Vegas, but without the “glamor" this.
This perception, as we move forward with the car, is sharpening, so taking into account that time does not accompany us, since it has not happened to rain since we arrived in Cancun, we decided to make only a quick stop to eat and have a coffee, then go straight to the airport.
The truth is that this stop in Cancun was not planned, but in bad weather in Holbox, we decided this morning to leave before the island and go through here, more than anything to see the atmosphere a bit and thus be able to take Cancun into account or Not for a future stay.
And after the experience and although we have not seen the beaches, the truth is that from what we have seen, we believe that from what we have seen, it is a Playa del Carmen with macro resorts, so for the moment, when we return, we will stay with the Tulum and Holbox area.
It's 4 in the afternoon when we arrive at the Europcar offices, which is where we have rented the rental car in Mexico and that are a couple of kilometers before the terminals of the Cancun International Airport, where after checking the car and take pictures, we return it and take a small van that takes us to terminal 4, which is where Aeromexico flights operate, which is the company with which we will make the first climb of our trip, in Mexico City.

The time has come to check-in and leave our bags to go directly to the boarding area, where we have been told that there are several catering services, something that after seeing it, we have to say that there are not so many and that the terminal, as such, is quite uncomfortable, without plugs, or enough seats, in addition to not having Wi-Fi, something that catches our attention, considering that this is the entrance and exit door for many of the tourists who visit Mexico .
Punctual at 20:20 at night we take off, on the way to Mexico City, where we will make a 2-hour stopover and then catch a flight to Paris, which after a second 3-hour stopover, will take us to Barcelona, ​​where our Amazing trip to Mexico.
