Planning on a trip to Lake Chapala. Bus question?

Question

I was checking out a bed and breakfast website in Chapala, and it said there are no busses from Guadalajara to Chapala.. but Im sure Ive read somewhere that there are.... Im confused!

Answer 1

During my trip in Guadalajara, I was in a one-day trip and we arrived at the Chapala Lake too. So, you can use a tour company, very safe, from a hotel. We stayed at Mission Carlton, if it helps.

Answer 2

It may have said that there were no buses from the airport.  There are taxis that can take you from the airport to Chapala at a resonable price.

Answer 3

ok, i have no idea what that first post is talking about.  a 1st class bus (air conditioning, bathroom) is NOT dangerous.  they don't care if you are from mars, they aren't interested in your money or stealing from you.  i'm sure you can find a thief anywhere in the world if you tried...but no, the buses are not dangerous.  

ok, i could have sworn there were buses as well...that just seems crazy.  i do know that lake chapala is like, all retired white people.  maybe there is no bus because they figure all the americans won't take the bus....or they have cars or something.  i recommend taking a bus as far as you can, and then getting a taxi.

also, why don't you call the bed and breakfast and ask them to recommend a mode of transportation.

Answer 4

There are no buses from the airport or from the main bus station in GDL to Chapala.  You have to take a taxi or bus to the downtown bus station and then take a bus to Chapala.  On  that route, you will pass by the airport again.  It is much easier, and not too expensive to take a taxi from the airport.  Either way, have a great trip.

Answer 5

yes they have busses but i definetly dont recomend u to get in a bus it can be dangerous if they know ur going from the us cause they know u have to have money with u just get a taxi its much more safer good luck and have a good trip
