Natasha Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 Do you by any chance mean San Juan Cosala? If yes, editing your topic might help get more attention. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Check out buses. May be less expensive than gas and tolls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou Quillio Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 2 hours ago, ibarra said: Check out buses. $563 MXN on Primera Plus tomorrow (online purchase), six different runs, about four hours. You'd have to get yourself from San Juan Cosalá to Guadalajara New Central, which can cost about the same in a taxi, and for all I know the same on the Guanajuato end. In round numbers, let's say $1,500 MXN, per person, door-to-door, and a leisurely half day of travel. https://viaje.primeraplus.com.mx/search/t-guadalajara-central-nueva/t-guanajuato-central/19-Jul-22/p/A1/departures Two people probably wouldn't need to chip-in ~$150 USD total on a ride share, so the [nice] bus is more expensive. OTOH, it's ready when you are. LQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total round trip for 2 people on ETN $1,872.60 MXN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There you go assuming again. (1) Bus from SJC / AJijic or Chapala, getting off at El Elamo stop, hopping on another city bus to new bus depot nowhere close to taxi fare. (2) bus from Guanajuato bus depot into city also cheap so no taxi required (Been there, done it) (3) if $$$ is main issue for these two, there are other bus companies and less direct routes (eg via León ) while tho' needing a transfer, are options. (Been there, done that too.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Take a more expensive luxury bus because time is even more valuable as is comfort. I have gone the cheaper route. The bus was crap and it took twelve hours. Your choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natasha Posted July 20, 2022 Report Share Posted July 20, 2022 Morning all....... so go to thinking....... OP's don't seem to have EVER come back..... not changing topic headline a clue. With all the phishing, scams, kidnappings, extortions, etc that occur on an hourly basis these days by various means............. anybody else wondering red flag? Won't be coming back here any more, so this is only for others to ponder. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted July 20, 2022 Report Share Posted July 20, 2022 I think we lost a lot of OP's due to the way they were treated on this site. When you are told to "eat shXt and die" "fuXX off", or are given the finger it doesn't endear you to reply or return to this site. It seems to be a little better the last couple of weeks though. To me, it is safer in MX than where the new OP's live or have moved here from. Sorry - I know this isn't part of the original topic.

bournemouth Posted July 20, 2022 Report Share Posted July 20, 2022 I certainly get the impression we are talking to ourselves and that the OP has left the room. Best to move on I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
