Jalisco Hotel map and travel info

Holidays in Jalisco, Mexico

Getting there

Planes, trains, automobiles, or maybe even helicopter – we tell you the best way to go.

Planes
Aeromexico, Mexicana and Aviacsa all have flights from Mexico City to Guadalajara. American and Continental Airlines fly in from the US. Continental Airlines and Air Canada have direct flights to Puerto Vallarta from several major US and Canadian cities.
Boats
Some seaside towns, such as Yelapa, can only be accessed by boat taxi – you can hop on board one in Boca de Tomatlan or Puerto Vallarta.
Trains
The railways never really reached Mexico. Bus services are comprehensive and reliable but the distances involved are huge. Uno (www.uno.com.mx) are probably one of the best companies, as they offer first-class buses with reclining seats, and blankets for overnight journeys.
Automobiles
Driving in Mexico is relatively easy and the roads are generally well maintained. However, venture far from the main highways and you’ll be in dirt track territory – rent a 4x4 if you intend to explore in depth.
