In any of the small cities like Playa del Carmen or Cancun there are hundreds of small tour companies that provide transportation and guides.
This varies from air-conditioned luxury buses stopping at 5 star restaurants to 4-wheel drive jungle jeeps with box lunches. There are also taxis everywhere you go, even in small pueblos in the middle of nowhere. Everywhere else the driver sets the rate which he will tell you if you ask.

The rest of the way, you will have to take a bus or rent a car to get to your final destination. There is talk in Mexico that the President would like to build a train that goes through the Mayan villages and bring more tourists directly to Cancun.
