Driving The New Highway From Puerto Vallarta To Guadalajara- Less Than 3 Hours!!! 😲

[@jcardenas4551]

El problema es salir de Vallarta atravesando Bucerías, toma a veces más de una hora, y si a eso se le suman las filas en las casetas de peaje de plan de barrancas y Compostela, el tiempo es casi el mismo que la ruta de las palmas.

[@sandyvazquez1992]

Para las casetas solamente aceptan pesos en efectivo? Or can you pay with a debit card?

Thank you so much for this. In early plans for moving to Guadalajara. Wondered what this drive would be like

Hola, estoy planeando ir a Puerto Vayarta desde Guadalajara y me comentaron de esta nueva ruta de quotas pero no me aparece en google. Que carretera es o como se llega a ese nueva toll road desde Guadalajara? Muchas gracias 😊

Solo se sigue la indicación a Puerto Vallarta de paga

we drove the toll road from Tepic back home to GDL last summer. it was about the same price as you mentioned here from Bucerias. that is incredibly expensive for a 3 hour drive! clearly they want to minimize traffic to only rich people with those kinds of prices. that is one week's pay of the Mexican minimum wage...

wow! expensive tolls! That works out to about $60 US or $80 canadian each way. I wonder if the bus would be cheaper? Do you know if any bus lines (especially the first class buses) between the 2 cities take this toll road? And what about flying? I did a search and the cheapest flights between the 2 cities is a lot less than the tolls, if you don't have any luggage. I was thinking, if we spend the winter in PV (we are canadians), it would be nice to go to Guadalajara for 2-3 days.

[@VallartaLife]

Yeah its expensive. I did not see any buses on the road so I doubt they take this route. I would go on the plane if its cheaper.

[@geezerpleasers_OG]

Carito, indeed!

[@VallartaLife]

Yes it is

[@eastcounty4605]

We are headed that way, I think.
