TXCrusing60 Posted April 15, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Where can get on a double decker bus after you get off the ship in Progreso? Is it close to where the free buses pick up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purvis1231 Posted April 16, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Several years, we got on it right outside the terminal. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maldenmusic Posted April 20, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2016 It has moved over the years since we've been going to Progreso. Last year it was not far from the bus terminal. I think we had to walk like 2 blocks but you can ask anyone and they know where it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babyblue Posted May 8, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 8, 2016 (edited) We enjoyed the double decker bus tour. Not too long and great pics from the top(just have to watch for power lines LOL) Edited May 8, 2016 by Babyblue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the catch? :-) Seriously, I've been trying to figure out what I want to do on my day in Progreso and this sounds like it would be right up my alley. The price is about $3, correct? Do they want pesos (fine by me) or Yanqui money? And, to get to the DD I'd take the bus from out at the end of the pier into Progreso, then walk a couple of blocks. Sound about right? Next thing I need to do is find a decent map of the town and see where things are in relation to each other I guess. Anybody recommend a good one, either free or for purchase? Thanks!!

I havent been to Progresso in a few years but loved the DD bus. Nothing fancy but fun. Google map of Progresso and you will get one just print it out.

SteveInKY Posted May 10, 2016 #12 Share Posted May 10, 2016 here is another good map http://yucatantoday.com/progreso-map/?lang=en Thank you, ma'am. That was a lot of useful information. I'm looking at the Yucatan as a potential retirement site, so I'm hoping to use the time in Progreso to get a first impression of the place. This sounds much better for that purpose than just riding through town on a cruise ship excursion. Plus, I'm hopeful I'll get a chance to see how much Spanish I've held on to after all these years. Again, much obliged for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
