Getting Around
The main stop for all the routes of buses inside Vallarta. Most of them will have a stop on Pino Suarez Street between Venustiano Carranza and Lazaro Cardenas Streets. However the new buses with A/C have their stop on Venustiano Carranza Street near the corner with Pino Suares Street. the basic fare is MXN 7.50. Be aware that the new buses cannot give you change. They can take 10 pesos coin and any bills but they cannot give you change. If you would like to use the public transportation and need help in understanding let me know and I can give you specific instructions depending on where you would like to go. Otherwise i recommend using UBER
