Transport
There are all kinds of ways to get around Guatemala. The options vary depending on your budget, timeframe, and expected level of comfort.
Rental Cars- It is easy to rent a car in Guatemala. Having a rental car allows you to explore the country at your own pace with the freedom and flexibility to travel wherever you want. It is a good idea to rent a four-wheel drive vehicle, as the Guatemalan roads can be bumpy and rough in most remote places. To rent a car you’ll need a driver’s license from your home country or an International Driving Permit.
Bus- Buses are the main method of transportation for most Guatemalans, and is the best way to save money. They are often referred to as chicken buses and will give you a real taste of the local Guatemalan lifestyle. The buses go most everywhere around the country and stop anywhere. There are primera clase buses that travel between major destinations and cities including Guatemala City, Huehuetenango, Quetzaltenango, Flores, Cobán, and Puerto Barrios. On these buses you’re guaranteed to have your own seat, and some buses even have restrooms.
Shuttle- this is one of the easiest ways of getting around the country. These can be private or shared and travelers are picked up at their hotel in the original destination and dropped off at their hotel in the final destination. A private shuttle allows you to go where you want, when you want and get door-to-door service.
Boat- Small motor boats frequently run between the villages, hotels, and attractions in the country.
Taxi- Taxis are readily available throughout the country. In larger towns cabs can be hailed from almost anywhere and in small towns taxis can be found around the central square. Most taxis are metered an charge a flat fee.
tuk-tuks-these are motorized rickshaws that offer yet another mode of transportation. These are cheaper than taxicabs and are great for going short distances.
