the most HORRIBLE experience in my life!
if possible, i would rate 0 stars!
don't ever book a bus ride with this company!
we booked a "first-class" ticket from Guatemala City to Flores with maya oro.
First: the bus is old, it's rusty outside and it gives you an idea of how it will look inside.
The Seats are disgusting and never been cleaned in its life and FAR AWAY from being first class and comfortable.
but if that only would be the worstthey cool the bus down to 5C degrees. it's so freezing, that you nearly can see your breath!!!! and blankets is a foreign word.
also it stinks all the time from the toilet, i avoided to use
the bus driver is completely unfriendly and don't actually want to understand you.
NEVER AGAIN
i deeply recommend you to never book a ride with this overpriced disgusting bus company!response / report this review -

This was the worst bus ride we ever had!
All the bad things we red in the comments before the ride came actually true.
First, our seats were really uncomfortable and undstable, it was moving around. The front windshield was damaged ond the right and the left side. We startet at 9pm from guatemala to flores. At midnight the bus stopped somewhere and people from the market came into the bus and sold their food, they were that loud and had a annoying flashlight so everyone in the bus woke up, and they were in the bus for at least 15min.. so we had to watch for our stuff all the time.
Furthermore, the bus was really cold, without a blanket or something we'd be freezing! The horrible bus toilet odor could we smell all night long! Moreover the wifi didn't work, there were no televisions at all and many things were broken. Most of the other guatemalen passenger in the bus were very unfriendly and spoke loudly in the middle of the night with each other or on the phone!
And last but not least, the bus motor broke down and we were stucked in the middle of nowhere for around 45min, so in the end instead of a 9hour trip we had a horrible 12.5 hour trip!! It wasn't worth the 180Q!response / report this review -

Took us 4.30hours from rio dulce to flores in a fully packed bus with A/C only working half, when you arrive in Santa Elena, they will tell you to hop in a shuttle bus who will drive you to your hostel. They will just drive you into flores and try to scam you for a tour with them to Tikal. Just stay on the bus to the bus station and walk to flores just over the bridge.

FDN TRANSPORTES - FUENTE DEL NORTE - March 26 2017 1030pm from Guatemala City to Flores
This was the worst bus ride of my life. I had to endure a 12 hour bus ride from Guatemala City to Tikal and it ended up being the most uncomfortable trip I have ever experienced. I paid extra for VIP seats which they told me is very comfortable, with pillows and blankets, but at 4am the bus stopped in the middle of an intersection and pulled over and another truck met them and they gave that truck all the blankets and pillows which we never got. They stopped for a bathroom break and my husband got off and they almost left without him because they didn't even check if everyone was on the bus or not. Thank god my husband got in on time. Also, to my disappointment my seat didn't even recline, there was a screaming baby the entire trip, no toilet paper, the TVS didn't work, the free wifi was never connected, and it was dirty (full of sand, dust and garbage from the previous passenger). It ended up being a 12 hour trip from hell.
Something else I want to mention is when we got to Flores they rushed us off the bus and put us all in a shuttle and said this is the shuttle to Tikal and they will take you to where you need to go! We needed a ride to a hostel so they said they would take us. Looks like this shuttle must have some sort of agreement with the FDN bus driver because it ended up being a scam. We had another tour already booked for Tikal but when we were on the bus the driver and guide asked where I was going and I told him the name of the hostel. He then said he would only take us there if we did the Tikal tour with them. I explained I already have a tour planned and they said they would just drop us off in the middle of the street if we don't do the tour with them. They got angry but thankfully I speak Spanish so I was able to negotiate and we ended up paying 25Q each for him to drop us off at the hostel. It was very unsafe and sketchy. So beware of these shuttles!response / report this review -

First, I highly recommend taking the overnight bus from Guatemala City to Flores. Beside the unpleasant train station, everything else is great. After taking an over night bus from Guatemala City to Flores, I left my purse on the bus with all of my belongings. We contacted the bus station and it was hand delivered with everything in it hours later. It is hard to come across honest people, but this BUS COMPANY deserves an A++
