5.00Purely connect the city of Belize to the city of Flores in Guatemala by bus, the boarding information is accurate, the car is air-cooled, there is a stop in the middle of the road, great!
Well...

3.00The gentleman where the check in is quite rude, just screams and as he speaks English of the Indian it is difficult to understand the friendly Belizean driver, the Guatemalan much better, too many stops to drop off and/or pick up people along the way what makes the trip tedious
Long Bus Ride - Limited Leg Room

3.00This was a very long bus ride across Belize and Guatemala with stops along the way to pick up/drop off people. The bus has A/C with a seat for 2 on the left side and a single seat on the right side. First ones on get to pick the best seats. There’s an aisle between but a seat folds down to maximize seating so the bus can get really packed. This sucks for tall people with long legs. Avoid the seat in the row over the rear wheel well - less leg room. No bathroom stops. The only bathroom is at the border control on the Belize side, which is a 1 BZE dollar coin operated turn stile. BZE charges a $20 USD exit tax. When entering BZE for the first time you need to fill out a Visa Form.

2.00We booked this service to get to Flores from Belize city. The directions on the meeting point and departure time were clear. We left on time (indeed, maybe a little early) in a hurry and running to keep up with the escort. The journey to the Guatemalan border runs smoothly. Once we reach the border, they let us out of the bus and tell us that we would find their correspondent once we crossed the border on foot. They gave us absolutely no indication of what we should do but we still passed. That's where the trouble starts. Following other travelers in the same group, we find the correspondent waiting for us. Immediately it is clear to us that there will be confusion because some of the group were headed to Flores, others to Tikal. After asking us for a reservation and destination, and seeing that the two escorts continued to argue about who should get on or not, they let us get on another bus that left half an hour late. After a few meters, the driver goes back and tells us that the group headed to Flores had to get off. Once we get off, we are told that we must wait for other travelers to fill the vehicle. After almost two hours, we finally leave for Flores. We arrive about 3 hours late. The journey in all took almost 8 hours, not because of traffic or obstacles on the road but only because of the disorganization of the company. Fortunately there was an English lady who with her British humor made the experience less unpleasant.

4.00Decent ride for price, friendly driver and helpful at the border where driver was waiting for us on other side. Bus didn’t look like one in photo so had some trouble finding it in Belize city and only found it last minute as they missed us in the ferry terminal.
