    Getting TO/AROUND: when you travel to Puebla just admire in your window the volcanos popocatepetl and iztlazihuatl...ok now try to pronunce them.....???mmmmmm......good try..

    WHEN YOU TRAVEL BY BUS....
    long travels i suggest to bring up to the bus with you, a sleeping bag to sleep like a baby, earplugs to skip snorings and noisy movies, also bring a jacket or something to cover your nose from cold air....

    happy travels.. !!

    Transportation: The Subway System (Metro)

    Category: Subway/Metro
    Getting TO/AROUND: backpackers who arrive at or depart from the bus terminals, normally use the Metro. My recommendation e use of common sense, crime prevention rules apply anywhere, to include the Metro System in this.

    Once you enter it, PLEASE make sure you know and understand where you are located and the destination point you intend to reach. Getting lost in the subway and if unable to communicate in Spanish is something you want to avoid. Also, memorize or at least try to identify ahead of time the Transfer Stations in order to change routes. Be careful when entering and departing the subway cars. These open and close fast. Obey the restrictive lines, meant for your protection. Beware of pickpockets and possible harassment if in crowded situations. Metro users will push their way through and the experience may not be pleasant, comfortable. However, the rides will be enjoyable, safe, nice, if you use the Metro in weekends and Monday to Friday, NOT during rush hours. 7-9am , 5-7pm

    Coming Out of Metro Stations
    you will be expected to walk long distances and climb stairs.
    out of stations, the roving green taxis you should never board are waiting outside. Again, Our suggestion is to proceed to the nearest Sitio taxi stand, normally in the vicinity of all stations. Another option is to go to a nearby safe place such as a restaurant or hotel and call for a radio taxi, make sure you know your exact location and provide the number you are calling from. Ask the patrons for it. You can also use the public transportation system (peseras, buses), as long as you always use crime-prevention rules and you have previously determined, identified the routes you will take.

    Mexico City Subway Hours of Operation

    monday to Friday - from 5 am to midnight.
    Saturday from 6 am to midnight
    Sunday and Holidays from 7 am to midnight

    Cost & Special Services

    Your subway ticket costs $ 2 pesos (about $ US .20 CENTS!!). Senior citizens with INSEN identification and Handicapped Users ARE EXEMPT from payment.

    Getting TO/AROUND: our ansestors use to walk for days, maybe you dont but you can do a good hiking and walk around , maybe you need good boots

    ****

    the RAIL system is broke in MEXICO but some private rail rutes runs in some places for turism like the CHEPE for the cooper canyon and the train of OCCIDENTE that run in the bajio in the Tequila Express. A new service is the Expresso Maya a train service that cover some part or Chiapas and Yucatan by rain , the service is really new and expensive.
