Belmopan - Post Report Question and Answers

Are local buses, trams, trains or taxis safe and affordable?

Affordable yes. Safe NO! You need a car here. - Feb 2019


No trains. Get the telephone number of a reliable taxi and keep him on call. Plenty of tourists ride the inter-city buses but I haven't tried them. - Jun 2015


No trains. Buses and taxis are not recommended. - Jun 2015


No trains. Buses are frequent, cheap, and not very safe. (They are all used US school buses and a few 1950s Greyhounds.) Only the tourist sector has modern vehicles. Taxis are ok but expensive, particularly for out-of-city rides (US $ 150 for a round-trip to Belize City from Belmopan). - Jan 2011
