Where to stay
Most budget travelers base themselves inside the old city walls, on or near Calle 59 or Calle 57, where you can walk to the main plaza, the malecón, and the baluartes without needing transport. If the centro is full or overpriced, the Barrio de San Francisco just outside the Puerta de Tierra gate has a handful of cheaper guesthouses.
Getting around
- Eat lunch at the Mercado Principal (Mercado 10 de Abril, a few blocks from the bus terminal) where a full comida corrida runs well under a hundred pesos.
- The ADO bus from Mérida takes about two hours and costs a modest fare. It drops you close to the centro, so skip the taxi touts at the terminal and walk.
- The city walls and bastions are free to walk. The paid museums inside the baluartes are thin on content. Save your money and just climb the walls at Baluarte de Santiago or Baluarte de San Francisco for the views.
When to go
May through October is the slow, sweaty season when hostel beds are easiest to find and prices soften. Book ahead for Carnaval (February) and Semana Santa (March or April) when the centro fills up and rates climb.
