How much is a bus to the border from the DF of Mexico (mexico city)

[circle110]

Remember, the only border location identified so far where you might be able to renew the FMM without entering the US is Nogales. Mexico City to Nogales will be one heck of a long trip and it may be that there are no direct buses from Mex City all the way to Nogales. Most people from Mexico City would tend to cross at Nuevo Laredo which is much closer (about half the distance) but there you will have that same problem of not being able to get a new FMM without first crossing into the US.

You may have to do the trip in multiple buses with connections and it will probably be a minimum 30 hour trip each way depending on connections. Not to mention a little on the costly side.

I'm only considering this as an option if I can get my friends to go at the same time, that way we can rent a van.

Wow! That's right, he said "Nogales", didn't he? I thought he was talking about Nuevo Laredo. Could had swore that I saw Nu4evo Laredo in his post. I figured Nogales was just some tiny town close by, I had no idea that it was in New Mexico. I've lived most of my life on the East coast so I've never been to Texas or New Mexico before, sorry for not knowing.

I actually did not call the border patrol at Nogales, but at Nuevo Laredo on both sides. So this means that we do not know any one who's done this then at the Nuevo Laredo border.

<b>If anyone online has been stamped out of mexico and stamped back in without going through the US checkpoint, please tell us here.</b>

Actually don't answer that. It's going too far off the topic of this thread. This thread is about the south border by bus.

I will start a new thread to address this here: Has Anyone Been Stamped out & back into Mexico without going through US Checkpoint?

Why do I still think that we have a troll playing with us; a good one at that? One who seems quite capable but without the incentive to look at a map or use Google for many of the details available at a click of the finger. Lots of questions remain unanswered, so I continue to play 'devil's advocate'.
Wait a minute! Maybe they are a carnival troupe with a two year tour planned for Mexico.

Funny! Or maybe a group of door-to-door encyclopedia salespeople! Troll or not, tigernerve has certainly managed to monopolize our attention and time for several days running.

Here is one of the links I used when I rode the bus from here to Tapachula.

My wife goes back and forth between Mexico City and Reynosa (to McAllen). She has never found an ADO on that route. AVE has a sleeper bus that runs overnight.So does Turistar Ejecutivo, though they are less comfortable. There is also Omnibus de Mexico, not sure if it is a sleeper. Sit up buses run a bit cheaper for the same trip.

I've tried multiple city combinations with out any luck.

Are there any key border cities I should be typing in? Sorry I do not know Mexico well.

That just means that they don't have a route going there, but they can use one of their sister bus lines. . You can give them a call on their customer service line and they will give you the information you need.
