All offices will ask for your driver’s license and will keep it as a deposit. They will give you a document that you can use as a license in case you receive a ticket or violation.

Where to rent a golf cart in Isla Mujeres
There are many offices where you can rent a cart. Even from the moment you step off the ferry from Cancun to Isla Mujeres until the next two blocks, you’ll be greeted with offers on everything from: car rental, scooters fishing trips, tours, restaurants, handicrafts, even tequila. Pretty much a little bit of everything, whatever.
I recommend that you look for an establishment to avoid problems. There are several of them a few steps from the ferry. Rent it in the place where you feel most comfortable and feel the best confidence. If you visit the island in high season or on weekends, I recommend you book in advance. Golf carts usually sell out by noon.
