Local tips

  • Register a Telcel tourist eSIM with your passport and a live camera check, or the line will not work.
  • Shared colectivo pickups cost well under a dollar a ride, so carry small peso coins.
  • Refill bottles at the free water stations run by Sostenible PXM instead of buying plastic.
