The Omnibus de Mexico runs first class buses (comfortable with video and toilet) run hourly from Ciudad Juarez (border to El Paso) to Chihuahua City - time approx. 5 1/2 hours - and from there second class buses to Creel run every 2 hours between 6am and 6pm - time approx. 5 hours.
If coming from the west coast it is possible by bus via either Hermosillo or Cuidad Obregon but it is a long strenous journey and much more enjoyable by train from Los Mochis. |
