Bus is an excellent cheap...
Bus is an excellent cheap mode of getting from Belize city to Flores and staff are lovely. People should keep in mind that the bus will be absolutely jam-packed so is not super comfortable and the driving can be a little crazy at times.
via Viator
Great. No whatsapp...
Great. No whatsapp communication, but went smoothly without. Very reasonable. Border crossing was easy.
via Viator
Good but badly organised by viator
Decent bus good driver ! As a company you need to give better details on collecting your wristband for tge bus from the shop in the port a lot of people confused at tge port through booking online and missing buses Your meeting point should be more detailed too Tbh it was a problem because it makes travel more fun but for some people who are catching flights its probably not that x
via Viator
The shuttle bus was fine...
The shuttle bus was fine but the border crossing is very slow. The bus was air conditioned and not over crowded compared to local buses.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Ignacio.
How much does Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala cost?
+
Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Ignacio usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in San Ignacio is not rushed.
Is Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 31 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Ignacio, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Ignacio can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Ignacio and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Transportation from Belize City, To Flores / Tikal Guatemala start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central San Ignacio within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in San Ignacio?
+
On Outty we rank every San Ignacio experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Actun Tunichil Muknal Cave Tour and Picnic, Xunantunich and Cave Tubing Combo Tour from San Ignacio, Tikal SUNSET, Archeological focus and Wildlife Spotting Tour (South and East). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit San Ignacio?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in San Ignacio?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
