How to Get There: 
 
The are two international airports near San Miguel de Allende: the Aeropuerto del Bajio (BJX),  
located 110 km (about 70 miles) from San Miguel, and the recently opened Aeropuerto Internacional de  
Queretaro (QRO), about 75 km (45 miles) from San Miguel de Allende. 
 
Although the airport in Queretaro is closer, flights are usually more expensive than flights to  
Mexico City (MEX) or BJX. The QRO airport has fewer flights to choose from, currently receiving once  
daily flights - Aeromexico and Continental. Most travelers prefer flying in to the Aeropuerto del  
Bajio (BJX), and it is considered the most convenient when flying to San Miguel de Allende. 
 
 
 
Buses To San Miguel de Allende: 
 
To/From Mexico City: It's a 4-hour trip to San Miguel from Mexico City's Terminal Norte, on a first- 
class bus (with one stop in Queretaro). Primera Plus, Satelite, ETN, and Omnibus de Mexico all  
have one to six deluxe buses per day. Flecha Amarilla and Herradura de Plata have buses that leave  
almost every half hour (most are first-class). Make sure that your bus is a "directo". If you can't  
get a quick departure, catch a bus to Queretaro and change buses there. 
 
To/From Guanajuato: Flecha Amarilla has nine buses a day to San Miguel. 
 
To/From Queretaro: If you arrive in Queretaro by first-class bus, go out the front door and cross to  
the terminal in front. Buses for San Miguel leave about every 15 minutes. You can choose between  
Satelite, Flecha Amarilla, and Herradura de Plata. The trip takes one hour.

Driving in Mexico and Driving to San Miguel de Allende: 
 
Driving in Mexico can be a challenge for some drivers. Even the best roads weave through the  
mountains of Northern and Central Mexico. As a Texan once put it, "the only roads in Mexico not  
going up are the ones going down..." 
 
There are many very modern toll ways running throughout Mexico, however the tolls can add up  
quickly. It costs about US $65 in toll fees to drive from Nuevo Laredo to San Miguel de Allende.  
Gasoline is also more expensive in Mexico than in most of the United States.  
 
Driving in the cities, the "uno por uno" (one by one) rule at intersections often deteriorates into  
whoever is bravest goes first, and usually that one is followed by another three. 
 
In order to enter Mexico with your own vehicle, you need to get a temporary import permit at the  
office of Customs Agency of Mexico, Aduana México at the Mexican side of border. You will need a  
valid driver's license and you must have ownership documentation, such as the original title or  
vehicle registration (it is also a very good idea to make copies of these documents and keep them in  
a safe place). 
 
You also must pay an import duty. In order to guarantee your car, the fee must be paid with a major  
credit card (American Express, Visa or Master Card). Depending on the day of the week, it may take  
several hours to process the paperwork to enter the country. 
 
Unfortunately, checking account debit cards with the Visa or Master Card logo are not acceptable. If  
you don't have a major credit card, you must pay a sizeable cash bond, based on a percentage of the  
calculated value of your vehicle. This can be as much as US $1000, which is refunded, with interest,  
upon leaving Mexico. 
 
The third option is to pay a percentage of the fee to a bonding company. This is generally the least  
convenient, and most expensive way to get your vehicle into the country. 
 
At either side of the border you will find businesses selling auto insurance for Mexico. This is not  
a bad idea, especially if your Spanish isn't very good. 
 
Finally it is important to note that it is illegal to abandon a vehicle in Mexico, as it also  
illegal to sell a vehicle with an temporary import visa to a Mexican. Also, it is against the law to  
allow a Mexican to drive your vehicle, and the penalty for violating this can be the confiscation of  
the vehicle (with no appeal). 
 
This might be an appropriate moment to note that Mexico's laws, like those of France and Spain, are  
based on the Napoleonic code- that is, in contrast with the United States, persons accused of felony  
crimes are presumed guilty until proven innocent. 
 
Finally, don't be surprised if you find periodic roadblocks, especially at state lines throughout  
Mexico. These might be manned by Federal or State Police, the Mexican anti-drug authority or even  
Mexican soldiers. These roadblocks are efforts to stop the flow of drugs and weapons. The best  
advice is to be as cooperative and honest as possible. Whatever you do - DO NOT SMUGGLE DRUGS OR  
WEAPONS!
