Maya Train to Mérida
Maya Train, the Quickest Transport in the Yucatán
The fastest way to move around the southeast of Mexico is the Tren Maya Train, a modern railway that was inaugurated in the year 2023, which connects the states of Chiapas, Tabasco, Campeche, Yucatán, and Quintana Roo.
This train connects both the towns of the Riviera Maya and the towns in the interior of Yucatán, offering quick connections between Cancún, Valladolid, Chichén Itzá, Izamal, and Mérida.
This way, you can comfortably get around the Yucatecan peninsula in a fast, punctual, and sustainable means of transport.
