Mexico Has a New Long-Distance Train Stopping in Top Locations! 🚆 🏝️

A new and fancy long-distance (near 1,000-mile) train route through Mexico has been in operation since late 2023, offering 34 routes through five Mexican states, circling the popular Yucatan Peninsula. This has made traveling through Mexico between top locations like Cancún, Tulum, Bacalar, Playa del Carmen, and Chichén Itzá more accessible than ever. The train is modern, offering air conditioning and regular, comfy seating in Tourist Class or more luxurious options like Premier Class with more legroom. Some of the longer journeys also offer sleeper cabins. You can easily connect to the train through free shuttle services from airports like Cancún. Tickets can be purchased both online and at stations, but we recommend downloading the Tren Maya app and booking tickets directly on the app. Below, we've provided routes and example prices we found.

*Please note: Ticket values vary depending on if you're a resident of Mexico or an international tourist. Make sure to book the proper ticket.
