Is one month enough time to travel from Panama City to Guatemala City?

Question

I was in Costa Rica for two weeks last year and went to quite a few places and will most likely only stay in the southern part of Costa Rica this time around for a few days then taking a bus all the way through the rest.

My mode of transport will be public bus, boats, ferries.

Budget is about $35/day, more on some, less on travel days.

Answer 1

35 dollars a day? there is no way you have a wonderfull vacation with that amount of money. Just to stay in a hotel in our country (guatemala) will cost you double.

Answer 2

Plenty of time.  From Panama city to the border is about a12 hour ride.  Golfito (in the Zona Sur) to San Jose is 7 hours by bus.  Another 12 hours San Jose to Managua.  Then on to Guatemala City.

Enjoy your trip.

Answer 3

I went all over Guatemala in about two weeks! It was amazing!

Answer 4

Make them two months to be on the safe side!

Answer 5

Its possible but $35 a day including travel is a bit... risky.

But it's possible. Dont lose your passport (=.

Answer 6

I don't think one month is enough time to truly experience those countries.  I spent 3 weeks in Guatemala and still didn't see everything.  You may want to extend your trip or focus on a couple countries.

Answer 7

That's plenty of time.  If you've all ready been down that way and have a handle on the transit, you should have plenty of time to spare.
