Default Cancun to Chichen Itza

I realize that this is r.t.europe but r.t.usa-canada is almost useless
and this is the only place where travel experts can really be found so
I apologize if this offends anyone.

How does one travel from Cancun to Chichen Itza for a day? Can anyone
recommend a bus or other travel option to get to Chichen Itza and
perhaps other Mayan temples such as Uxmal in the area of Cancun? Many
thanks.

The same people probably read both groups. I do.

The concierge of any hotel in Cancun can set you up with a decent bus
tour to Chichen Itza.

Also rec.travel.asia is dead. How about if all rec.travel newsgroups are
merged into one (rec.travel)?

It would still be ruined by all the idiots who post American political
drivel here.

You could probably merge all 50,000+ newsgroups into one - and still be left
with very little worth reading or replying to.
I think NGs have had their day....it's probably time to move on and leave
what's left to the ranters.

There are plenty of bus tours from Cancun to Chichen Itza for a day, and
no need to book in advance- you can sort it out when you're in Cancun.
Your hotel will probably have information on them too. We actually
stayed in Merida and visited Chichen Itza from there. This was 10 years
ago... don't remember the tour company... Some of the buses are very
comfortable compared to similar in Europe (fully reclining seats etc.)-
so worth asking about that.

There are zillions of tour bus operators out of Cancun. all more or
less expensive. For this kind of question you could check the forums at
tripadvisor, loneyplanet and a few others. The main public bus service
in the Yucatan peninsula is ADO, but I don't believe they have a direct
bus to Chichen Itza from Cancun. If you don't want to spend the money
on a tour bus and you are feeling extremely adventurous, you could take
the ADO bus to Merida or Valladolid and a taxi or bus from there. You
may be pushing it to do it that way in one day though.
