San Pedro

 

BUSES
San Pedro: Buses from San Pedro leave from the center of town. The closest stop to the lake is in front of the church, but if you want a seat you should go to the start of the line, 200 meters up from the corner, in front of the bank.
Xela: All buses to San Pedro leave from the Terminal Minerva. If you’re not feeling up to that level of chaos, they also all pass the corner of 19 Av and 7 Calle, Zone 3 and stop there, spruiking for passengers. If you miss a direct one, get any Guate-bound bus, jump off at Km 148.5 and make your connection there.
Guate: Ignore what your guidebook says - all buses to San Pedro now leave from El Trebol in Zona 8. There are city buses from Zona 1 and 10 that pass by - look for the “Trebol” sign in their windshield.

LANCHAS
Pinning down lancha prices on the lake is notoriously difficult, especially being that there’s a 3-tier price system: locals, long term extranjeros and tourists. Here’s a rough estimation of what you should be paying from San Pedro:
San Marcos: Q10
Pana: Q20
Points between Pana & San Marcos: Q15
Santiago: Q15
TUK-TUK
A tuk tuk will take you anywhere you want within San Pedro for Q5 per person, a certified XelaWho bargain.
