Here some of the best travel tips we can give you:
Saving
money in a way?? But not eating street food, many people get
parasites, it take 15 days to happen, and cost a lot to get
rid of them!! John. CANADA
If
you are going to travel by chicken bus, make sure that you
keep your passport, money, credit card, in your belly bag
not in the backpack. Like me.. still stock in here. Geroma. USA.
Don’t throuw
away your water bottles, many hostels refill them for you it
helps a lot with recycling... Central America needs it!
Mónica. El
Salvador. C.A
In Guatemala City maybe a shuttle for a few
dollars more is safer than getting robbed changing chicken
buses and is dangerous at night!! Chris & James. IRELAND.
Some places like Xela
or Antigua in Guatemala can be cold at night. So.. pack some
clothes for this. Josephine, Hans, Robert. AUSTRIA
Chicken buses stop running early evening!!
Don’t find yourself in the middle of nowhere without
a secure lift.. enjoy your trips!!! Manolo. ESPAÑA
Travelling
with a surfboard, Not easy in Central America!!! Many surfing
spots have Rentals.. but not repellent!!! Kyle. AUSTRALIA
Always
keep mosquito repellent sometimes you end up in a place with
no shop!! Jeffry.
HOLLAND.
Try
and Check with other people on the chicken buses the price
for your trip. Must be the same than everybody. And is always
in the local currency not in dollars. Sandra. ENGLAND.
Please
no matter how much of a hurry you are in don’t take off
your backpack until you are at the back of the chicken bus and
handing it to the guy on top of the bus. Or somebody can run
away with it. Christopher. NORWAY.
Keep
your Schedule open.. You’ll find little towns where you
dont want to leave or leave others earlier than you might have
planned. Johanna. Oregon US.
Bring a Blanket if you’re
planning to travel with night buses. They can get really cold! Karolina. SWEDEN
