I wish I could recall the exact spot. It could be the little square right in front of the City Museum, but that sounds too easy. (It looks different know since being remodeled so that's part of my hesitation.) A Meridano friend took me there once after we walked much of downtown and needed to catch a ride. He explained that the combis generally gather in that area and "everyone" knows which one goes where. My suggestion: Ask the locals where to find the combis. They will direct you.

You could certainly contract with a taxi to take you there... we're guessing they would probably do it for $200-300 pesos (less than $30 US).

Any idea how much a taxi from Merida to here would be, or if there's a bus? This sounds great – how do you get there if not by car?
