Puerto Escondido to San Cristobal de las Casas by Bus
Most buses from Puerto Escondido to San Cristobal De Las Casas travel overnight, so even though the trip takes 13-14h, you won’t lose much daytime. Plus, you’ll save a night on accommodation.
Two bus companies operate on this route: OCC and ADO GL.
ADO GL is the more premium option, offering spacious seats, extra legroom, individual reading lights, and separate toilets for men and women. You’ll also get a complimentary drink when you board.
OCC, a sub-brand of ADO, provides a simpler service. Buses come with air conditioning, reclining seats and a standard onboard restroom.
Since it’s a long journey, the bus will make a few stops for food and bathroom breaks. That means you can stretch your legs every few hours (if you’re not asleep).
We recommend taking the ADO GL bus — the extra comfort is well worth the price.
