AIRPLANE: from Huatulco airport (45km) or Puerto Escondido (75km)
Various daily flight from Mexico City with Mexicana de Aviacion (buying the ticket in advance you’ll find favourable offer)

If you arrive in Huatulco, we don’t recommend taking the airport taxi because expensive, it’s better to walk out the airport (400 meters) and reach the federal highway, where there are frequent private and collective taxis and micro buses going to Pochutla* (private taxi charge is about 250-300 pesos, Usd 25, and it’s better to bargain the price before the ride, the cost of the other options are a lot more inexpensive).

If you arrive instead to Puerto Escondido, you can take a collective taxi from the airport and get off at the bus terminal direction Pochutla* or a private taxi directly to Zipolite, always bargaining the price before.

Upon request we can do pick up and drop off service from and to the airport - Villaescondida, just e-mail us the arrival time.*Pochutla is the nearest town to Zipolite (15 km)

AUTOBUS: from Mexico City to Pochutla Various daily runs from Mexico City “Terminal Sur”, with Estrella Blanca (8 hours journey, via Acapulco) or with the line Cristobal Colon (10 hours journey, via Salina Cruz).

If you like to break the jouney, at half way there is the splendid city of Oaxaca, from there you can reach Zipolite with bus or what is called “suburban”, a confortable ride with a modern van for the cost of around 120 pesos, Usd 10. There are many daily runs with the companies Autoespress Atlantida (calle Noria 101) or Eclipse (calle …..)

Arriving in Pochutla: autobus, mini bus and taxis do runs to Zipolite all day long, and in Zipolite get off in the “colonia centro” (the center of the village), besides the little church or the restaurant-disco “Zipolipas” or contact the taxi to let you off directly to “Villa Escondida” en La Loma del Centro (see map).

As further information, if you like you can reach quite confortably other interesting areas of Mexico: Chiapas ( S.Cristobal de Las Casas, Palenque) and Guatemala, from Pochutla directly.
