You can drive the golf cart up to the North end. You will have to take the hand ferry across the cut. We stayed at Costa Maya, which is the northern most resort and took a golf cart into town. The ride took about an hour. The path was very bumpy and dusty, but we had fun anyway. If you are leaving San Pedro, you would probably want a gas cart. I heard that the electric ones won't get you to the North end and back again.

Have to share my golf cart story. My huband,child and I were in AC last March. We wanted to get a gas cart but were unable to as they were all sold out. We got an electric one and drove very far south, came back, stopped at the Mayan Princess quick and then continued on to the area along the river where the hand ferry is. We parked and my husband and son got out. As I was sitting there I could smell wood burning. Just at that moment I looked down and realized it was my SEAT that was on fire! My husband lifted up the seat and the flames shot up. The battery was on fire. Luckily some very nice local boys appeared out of no where with buckets of water and they managed to put it out. The wood that I smelled burning was the seat frame. To make the story even more interesting a very nice gentleman called Raoul drove us back to the hotel in his mattress delivery truck......sooooo you might want to consider the gas cart!

It turns out the connections were loose and that is how they caught on fire. Luckily we have a sense of humor and no one was hurt.

Never leave unattended in town. Only did that when we went thru the bird sanctuary & had nothing to take.

RMT...talk about being in the hot seat!

One little tip for the ride North....ladies, bind the girls down 'cause the bouncing thing can be painful.

Thanks for all of the information. Where do you rent the gas carts? Any suggestions?
