from Lan Sluder.....

Here's a letter from ABC Shuttles, which now operates a shuttle
between Cancun and Belize City, among other places. I think it's well
priced and much needed, although to date feedback on the service has
been a little mixed, mainly due to some problems with vehicle
maintenance.

I believe they currently charge US$100 per person from Cancun to
Belize City, and there's some minimum -- maybe two or three people.

Imagine they would pick up or drop off in Cayo for an extra fee.

Hi,
are the numbers listed in the ABC Shuttle letter with the 501 area code? I tried those and didn't receive an answer.
I am looking for a way to get from BC to Placencia and back on April 20 with the return trip on the 24th. Any info (other than local buses and flights) would be greatly appreciated.

To call the numbers in the letter, use 501 as the country code for Belize, then just the number; no area code.

See a copy of their newspaper ad on this site (scroll down a bit):

There is also a Mexican phone number & an email address.

The site also has contact details for other transfer services.

When calling from the USA, be sure you dial the complete number sequence, for example 011-501-602-3048.
