How to Get Around During Your Trip to Guatemala

To get around Guatemala there are different ways that adapt to any travel style in which you must compare comfort, time and costs

Buy tickets before

In Guatemala there is a solution that makes it easier to purchase bus tickets. At Spring Bus you will find a friendly interface and a platform with support and a trip planner that will make your visit to the country more comfortable.

Taxis and buses

There is a sufficient supply of taxis and transportation, mainly in the city; in the interior of the country, taxis do not operate like they do in the city.

If you have the Uber application, you can use it with all the precautions and safety notices. They are good for short distances and airport transfers.

Car rentals

It is the economically highest option, but it gives you freedom of mobility. In the city driving could be overwhelming due to the high traffic and on the highway it could be a challenge due to the state of some roads.

Chicken Buses

Old school buses from the United States are reused for public transportation in the country, they are adorned and decorated in a striking way and are usually an eye-catcher for tourists.

They are inexpensive and a great way to experience mobility through the various local cultures, but they tend to be very crowded and insecure. Take care of your luggage and ensure a sufficiently ventilated place.

Shuttle Services

They are minivans that travel to various parts of the country, offering direct routes for tourists who have a larger budget. They may be more comfortable than Chicken Buses, but they are more expensive. Schedules can be inflexible and not adapt to your times. If you are looking for comfort and more convenient mobility, this can be a very good option.
