Bus from Guatemala City to Flores Peten?

Question

How much would it cost for 2 people to travel by bus from Guatemala City to Flores Peten on a round trip ticket?

Answer 1

I took that bus ride a few years ago. A first-class ticket with Fuentes del Norte cost $12 one-way I think- it was slightly old and beat-up but at least had reclining seats, although the leg room was quite skimpy, for my 6' 5" frame anyway, until I traded someone for a front seat.  Someone else took a supposedly "Deluxe" which was a fairly new bus although still low on leg room- I think that was $18.  There was also the Linea Dorada deluxe which cost quite a bit more, but was reputed to be much nicer.  

OK...here is Linea Dorada's website:

(sorry forgot first time)

They charge $55 rt for deluxe service and $32 rt for their "economico".  Maybe prices have gone up, maybe Dorada's "economico" is better than FDN's "1st class".  I would  buy in advance, and try and get front seats if you can.

The trip was 9 hours back before they paved the road, probably less now.
